Meeting fantastic and lovely peoples

Because we want you to feel your Beautiful Confident Self...

During our work with people in need of a wig we met already so many fantastic and lovely women. One of it is Jane Cullen who wrote us a few days ago a very nice letter...



My name is Jane Cullen.

In August 2014 I was diagnosed with breast cancer and had a mastectomy. I began chemotherapy soon after my operation.

I was more worried about loosing my hair than my breast.

I met a lovely lady in hospital called Sue, who told me about Wig Boudoir. I had been to a Wig library and cried all the way through the session, having no luck finding a style that suited me.

I finally called Peter and Rick the specialists at Wig Boudoir in Georgetown.
The name itself made me feel exotic. I hadn’t even met them yet but immediately felt valued and special. You just know!

The salon was spectacular, way beyond my initial expectations, blue and white, simply stylish!

I felt comfortable and nurtured. I cried some of the time and that was ok too! I had my own hair for the first appointment. I had always wanted to be a blonde and the boys picked out a short style, which suited me. As soon as I put it on I knew I would be ok.

Having breast cancer challenges everything about being a woman, my breasts, how I see myself, how I feel. The thought of loosing my hair and being bald terrified me.

I can honestly say I left Wig Boudoir with my wig in the box and just felt happy for the first time since diagnosis.

What a gift!

I was prepared!

Women like to look good and having a wig that replaces your hair when your bald is something we would all naturally want.

Wig Boudoir provided me with a quality product and all the services I needed, the wig, the head shave, follow up wig care, a sense of humor and fantails lollies!

Beyond how Peter and Rick made me look, it was the way they and their wig made me feel.

I feel gorgeous, sexy and empowered and I love that feeling. Even today months later I just have to think about my wig and I feel happy.

Thanks Peter and Rick for your genuine kindness, your style and skill in helping me feel so wonderful about myself throughout such a challenging time.

Thanks for giving me more than service and a product but a great experience I will never forget!

Why trusting Wig Boudoir....

Because we want you to feel your Beautiful Confident Self...

Why Wig Boudoir?
As hair professionals we see many people experiencing temporary or permanent hair loss problems. Many of them experience difficulty finding professional and caring support at this particularly difficult time. While there are some retail options to purchase hair replacement products like wig shops, unfortunately, far too often this means receiving a product with no personalised consultation, instruction, nor styling or maintenance advice or support. 
Sadly, it is like many other day to day retail purchases: pick your wig, pay, then go home confused, overwhelmed, frustrated and having second thoughts. The insensitivity of these circumstances birthed the concept of Wig Boudoir – a dream to bring our professional knowledge and passion coupled with excellent products, and services to people in need of a wig.
Who are we? 
Wig Boudoir is a wig/hair salon which specialises in providing superior quality, natural looking wigs with a personal, caring, genuine and heartfelt service. Our consultants are experienced hair professionals who are dedicated to delivering healthy, organic non-toxic wig, hair styling and scalp treatments.

We have had personal experience with family members and friends who struggled with hair loss and their difficult journey to find the ideal wig solution. Professionally, we have helped dozens of clients to find the best solution to their hair loss challenges so they could regain a focus of “Look beautiful, Feel good.”

Tips to keep your wig beautiful

Because we want you to feel your Beautiful Confident Self...






6 tips for keeping your synthetic wig in good condition

1. Ideally, have two wigs. While you wash one, you can use the other. Another bonus of having two wigs is that you extend the life of each wig.

2. Use mild sulfate free shampoo or our recommended products to best protect your wig's colour and style.

3. Avoid aerosol hairspray, use mousse and other lightweight styling products .

4. Don't place a wet wig on a Styrofoam head as this may stretch the base of the wig. Place your wig on a folding wig stand or the mouth of a jar or vase to dry.

5. Strong Brushes damage synthetic fibers. Use a wide-toothed comb or your fingers.

6. Heat destroys synthetic fibers. Keep wigs away from hot water, hair dryers, ovens, barbeques, irons, cigarette lighters, heaters and open fires.


Also if you wear your wig a few times a week you should bring in your wig to Wig Boudoir  for maintenance, washing and steaming. So your mono fibre Hair will always look good and like healthy, natural hair.....

Good to know...

Because we want you to feel your Beautiful Confident Self...

At Wig Boudoir we do not just “sell you a wig” – we provide you with information so that you can make the best decision for yourself. You may want to come for two or three visits before you feel comfortable with the decision, and that’s fine by us.
We respect your need for privacy. Should it be necessary, we can arrange a visit to you in hospital or where possible at home if you are bed-ridden or immobile. We take great pleasure in helping our clients on their first steps to recovery. 
Our services, products and benefits: 
• Personal consultation by appointment regarding different types of high quality, natural looking wigs, colour, cuts and styles

Good to know....

Because we want you to feel your Beautiful Confident Self...



Questions and Answers
What type of wigs does Wig Boudoir stock? 
Only medical wigs, made specifically with the medical hair loss client in mind. These include handmade, machine made, synthetic fibre and human hair wigs.
Which wig is best for me?
Let’s reiterate that not all wigs are created equal. Wigs need to be tailored to suit individual needs, and the ethnic make-up of our population calls for individual attention. Each wig has certain benefits, but let’s outline the main points:
• A wig must fit the client exactly – front to nape, ear point to ear point. If it doesn’t fit you will never wear it, because you won’t trust that it will stay on.
• Its foundation must be lightweight with a smooth finish to be comfortable and allow your scalp to breathe. 
• The hair fibre must be realistic and in keeping with the volume of hair you are used to having.
• Realistic highlighting of the hair (fibre) is required to be in keeping with today’s styling.
What to look for and what to avoid when looking for a wig?
• Don’t buy a fashion wig – the bases are heavy and the fibre cheap - it will not last the distance, and visually presents badly. 
• Buyer beware when buying online – what the wig looks like on a model under proper lighting, with hairstylists and makeup artists in tow, will be completely different to what it looks like on you at home. 
• Don’t buy a wig without trying it on to make sure the hair density and colour suit you, and the base size not only fits and looks the part, but is also comfortable to wear. 
• Arm yourself with information – ask questions. That is, do you cut/style the wig? Are you qualified hairdressers? Do you custom size the bases? Is there any back up service? 

If the answer to any of the above is no, then you are very likely to experience some problems post-purchase. What you need to know about wigs and hairpiece service payments. Please check with Medicare and your private health insurance provider for any refunds and monetary support.

often asked questions

Because we want you to feel your Beautiful Confident Self...

Commonly asked questions
Chemotherapy 
How will the treatment I undergo affect hair loss?
Chemotherapy is a treatment used to fight cancer cells causing temporary hair loss. Unfortunately, during the treatment process, healthy cells, including hair follicles (the hair roots) can be destroyed. This means hair loss or sometimes hair thinning.
How much hair will I lose?
This will depend on the dosage and type of drugs used. Sometimes the effects on your hair are very little, but it is important to be prepared. Ask your doctor who will advise you on what to expect. However, even if you lose 20 per cent of your hair, you still may become very conscious of thinning and feel quite bald anyway. We believe it is better to have a “safety net” in place i.e. knowing that you have tried and found a wig that is great for you just in case you need it. 
How soon can I expect hair loss?
For some this may start within a few days of the first treatment. By the second treatment most people who have been advised they will lose their hair will experience hair loss. Partial or complete hair loss can be expected. We will inform you more about this at time of consultation. 
Will it grow back?
Yes. Once you have completed the treatment you can expect hair to start to regenerate in about a month. It will usually take three to five months to attain a reasonable head of hair.

Not all wigs are the same....

Because we want you to feel your Beautiful Confident Self...

We say not all wigs are created equal... 
We hand choose wigs specifically designed for hair loss clients.
Most clients choose to wear a wig or hats and scarves. Protection against the sun and cold is important, as is your appearance. We understand the trauma of losing your hair and the importance of looking good – so a quality wig allows you to carry on with your busy life, self-esteem intact.
We are hair replacement designers and distributors of medical wigs working with Ellen Wille Collection from Germany. This manufacturer is considered the cream of the crop when it comes to innovativeness, comfort design, natural and up-to-the-minute looks.
For our clients, that represents a fantastic variety of light weight, ventilated and amazing wigs, designed and distributed specifically for the medical market and reflecting your hair type.

Losing your Hair...

Because we want you to feel your Beautiful Confident Self...

Losing your hair can have a very strong emotional impact
Often people who are told by their oncologist or dermatologist that they will lose their hair, panic buy, believing that a “wig is a wig”. But that’s not the right thing to do – as we all know, hasty decisions lead to bad experiences.
Many wigs are made for fashion – low quality and design – and are completely inappropriate for hair loss of a medical nature.
You need professional advice to get the right result. With our professional knowledge and passion we will find the right solution for you. This document is specifically designed to help you gather information on wigs and prosthetic hair integration. 
Wig Boudoir provides you with hair professionals who have been professionally trained to work with medical and genetic hair loss clients. We provide you with a wide choice of modern styles from Europe – wigs that are natural in appearance, lightweight, and well ventilated, with exceptional foundation features that promote and support scalp tissue health.
You are welcome to contact us by phone or email for more detailed information.

Care and cleaning for synthetic wigs

Because we want you to feel your Beautiful Confident Self...

Care and cleaning for synthetic wigs

Here we inform you how to safely wash your wig and give you important care tips.
If you wear your synthetic wig every day, you should wash it at least every 2 weeks and bring it to Wig Boudoir every 4 weeks for professional maintenance and styling.

Wash
-       Fill a bowl with COLD water (never hot, as heat damages fiber)
-       Mix a capful of shampoo into the water
-       Immerse your wig and allow it to soak for 5 to 10 minutes
Rinse
-       Immerse your wig in a fresh bowl of cold water to remove shampoo
-       Do NOT squeeze or wring your wig
Condition
-       Apply conditioner (better less than more) directly to your wig, stroking      downward from roots to ends
-       Leave in 5–10 minutes.
-       Rinse by immersing wig once more in fresh cold water
Towel drY 
-       Place the wig between a folded towel and pat dry
-       Never squeeze, rub or wring your wig while drying
-       Remove from towel
Style and air dry
-      Gently shake the wig to regain its style. Alternatively, lightly style it with a wig comb/ wide toothcomb or your fingers.
-      Place wig on a folding wig stand or over the mouth of a large jar or vase to dry naturally. Never use a hair dryer, as heat damages synthetic fibers.

We are happy supporting you because we are people caring for people, not just hair professionals caring for hair.
