Alopecia and Wigful Thinking – There are many different reasons why someone would find themselves in need of our services here at Wigful Thinking. One of those reasons is alopecia.

alopeciaWHAT IS ALOPECIA?

Alopecia occurs when the body’s immune system attacks its own hair follicles. There is a range of severity of hair loss with alopecia from small, smooth bald patches on the scalp to, in rare cases, complete baldness, including all body hair.

It often occurs in people younger than twenty years old, but it can occur at any age. Most people with alopecia will regrow their own hair in the future. Some have this hair loss permanently.

Alopecia cannot be cured, but several treatments are available to encourage the body to regrow its hair. Unlike other medical diagnoses, alopecia is painless, non-contagious, and does not come attached to other health issues.

partial hair lossWHAT CAN WIGFUL THINKING DO FOR ALOPECIA PATIENTS?

If you have this type of hair loss, you may want to use a hairpiece while waiting for your own hair to regrow.  A hairpiece is made of human or synthetic hair and can be temporarily attached to your scalp covering the bald spot. If you have complete baldness, we offer full wigs. We even offer eyebrow wigs for those who experience a complete loss of body hair.

Hair is an important part of your identity.

That’s why its loss can be emotionally traumatic. We understand this here at Wigful Thinking and can work with you tenderly and gently during this hard time. And we can handle your needs individually and personally so that you get the size, color, and style that you need.

Nora Wessler, a grateful Wigful Thinking customer, says, “Wigful Thinking changed my life!  I have alopecia and, for years, have felt embarrassed going out in public. That all changed when I met Caryl, the Owner of Wigful Thinking.  I now feel confident and in control of my life in the public eye. I have even been approached by strangers complimenting me on my haircut. Little do they know….”
