Who would have thought?
Who would have thought that wigs can look so natural? I never did until I started to work with wigs. You have no idea how many people around you are wearing wigs or extensions and you never even knew. Of course people think that wigs show since the only wigs we notice are the ones that are not properly installed or of bad quality. That is why our wigs are so great, no one can know, unless of course you tell them.
Lets play a game, I want you to guess which pictures are wigs and which are not. You can post the answers on this blog directly and tomorrow I will give the answers.
Enjoy!

Yes, these donations are extremely appreciated by all Cancer patients who feel they haven’t only lost their hair but they have also lost their dignity. You cannot image how much you are helping people get back their feeling of self confidence and increase their self esteem.
We feel blessed that we can volunteer our time and energy to this cause, and we thank you for your thoughtful donations on behalf of all Cancer patients all over North America.

Another great day!
We made many people happy today, one in particular made me feel really great.
Again she had lost her hair due to her chemo. She purchased one of our amazing Diamond wigs and Mario cut and styled it for her. The lady was so happy, her daughter said she hasn't seen her mother smile in a long time!
That made me smile :)

Funny story
If you didn't know, well I wear wigs I don't just sell them. So anyways, I was at a coffee shop today and a girl comes up to me and says: Wow, you have really great hair! I have been trying to grow mine and it keeps breaking. So I played along, I started to tell her to use certain products and she was taking notes! Anyways so finally I said come and I will show you a trick, we went to the women's room and I took off part of my wig. She freaked!!! She couldn't believe it. So I explained the concept of our lace front - lace back wig and she took an appointment for a consult with me tomorrow.
How strange is that?

Ellen Joy Cohen
I would like to speak about a woman named Ellen Joy Cohen, a dear friend.
The first thing I would like to say is that she used to work with me. We worked long and hard making cancer patients look and feel great.
Ellen worked many months with us until she found a very large lump on her breast. She knew right away that she should go and get it checked, which she did. Unfortunately it was malignant and she knew that her life would change.
I knew that I would have to work to make her a perfect wig. I matched her colors and I did my best to design the perfect wig for her. She was so happy that she looked almost identical (she said she looked even better) to when she had her own hair.
When the wig came in, Ellen was so upset about having to shave her hair, but it had to be done since she barely had one hair on her head. After taking away the last of her hair I placed the "Ellen" wig on her head.
Ellen was so happy with the wigs that she had three of them, hoping that one day her hair would grow out to a length that she could accept.
Unfortunately my dear friend and co-worker Ellen Joy Cohen died last week after being told she was Cancer FREE!
I will miss you and so will everyone that had the pleasure to know you!
