Just wanted to say my United arrived today, and wow! She is absolutely perfect! Clearly it was meant to be that I get this one - it is exactly what I was after! Beautiful length, the lace is lovely, the fit is just right, the colour is beautiful… I am so happy with her! Thank you so much for your help and with getting her in for me. This has sold me on Ellen Wille now, I hope to buy more in the future!
Thanks again for all your help, it is greatly appreciated!

I just wanted to say a huge thank you for Tuesday. I was at a really low point when I came to see you that day, and when I left – well I felt closer to the old me than I ever have in the past month! You were so caring, understanding and genuine you made, have made the whole process so much more bearable. I also really appreciated you getting on the phone to my Dr and organising the medical grant too, you just make the process that much easier and for that I am so grateful.
I’m really enjoying playing with my wig – I haven’t thought of a name for her yet! Maybe Gerty!!
I went to see Trish, my hairdresser and she too was amazing – was so nice to talk to someone who’s been through it and come out the other side. She styled my hairpiece for me, and showed me way’s to wear it up and down and well, the whole process has helped me find confidence again and for once actually focus on something other than hair loss! You two are an amazing team.
I’m still losing my hair but now like you say, I have options if that does happen, and it will be another lovely visit to you and Trish if that does happen. But for now I’m enjoying the moment and loving being able to do some of the old things I used to do – and not feel self-conscience.
I even trialled the hairpiece at a workout at the gym today, and it all held together beautifully. In fact I think the hairpiece is actually nicer than my original hair! Thanks again Leigh, you have really made a difference.

"I actually tried wigs but I preferred the scarves that are colourful and that you can wear anyway you want. Very attractive. The hair consultant in Gisborne who showed us how to wear them was so helpful. Very good manner and also let us know that our medical grant could also be used for scarves and hats and not only for wigs.

I was excitedly nervous when I made my first appointment with Leigh. I needn’t have worried because from by the moment I first spoke with her, she has been respectful, kind, patiently listening to my questions and providing me with information and reassurance. My wife and I highly recommend her to anyone considering having a full head of hair. She provides great follow up and support. My life has changed with my new hair and Leigh has been extremely instrumental in this. I am forever grateful to her.

I don't think you realise how much you did for Mary (and myself) yesterday. She walked out a totally different woman and she even came into the supermarket with me with her new "hair". It looks lovely and it has obviously made a huge difference; her whole demeanour changed. It was magic the way you explained the chemo being a drug of wellness etc and that the hair meant old cells saying farewell and making room for new ones. Most empowering just knowing that.
Your aroha, care and graciousness is very much appreciated.
Our warmest.

Good to see wigs models. Choose wigs to try on then decided myself before commenting. I found this helpful!
and very happy with the final choice.

Found the team very professional and would recommend them to other women in need of a wig. Thank you.

"I'll be recommending Wigs by Haircreations to anyone I ever meet in the future who needs a wig. The hair consultants were sensitive and kind, dealing with me and also I notice the other staff members were extremely polite and smiling at me when I was in the main room looking at wigs or trying them on. The experience could have been horrific, but instead, it was supportive and gentle."

I would like to thank you for creating a warm and inviting environment for not only Ane but Fa’asulusulu and I on Friday – as you can appreciate, it was our first time doing something like this, so having your friendly assistance made it very easy. As you can appreciate, Ane is very keen to get her ‘new hair’.
Thank you again, it was a pleasure to work with you.
Kind regards

"All services I received from Wigs by Haircreations in Gisborne were very good."

"Wonderful, caring service. Thank you."

When I first lost my hair, I was so traumatised. The people at the Cancer Society in Tauranga told me to see Rhonda Jensen, who owns Tudor Wigs at Mazzahn on Cameron Road. I went into the salon crying my eyes out. Rhonda was so wonderful to me."

"Here is what I wrote to our friends and rellies …
Yesterday Mary got her wig and looks amazing Mary again. I can't describe how heart breaking it was at first (for us both - me watching her) as we sat in silence with the reality and was able to just be, albeit painful. The tears came as she removed her woollen hat in the mirror as she looked at a person she no longer recognised. I feel so privileged to be on such a personal journey with her. I know it's just hair and, yes, it will grow back but when it comes to the crunch for both males and females who lose their hair through illness, is it is indeed a loss and another thing to put up with. It was magic watching her demeanour change once the wig was on and cut similar to how she usually wears her hair. It was just the best ever to see Mary walking out a totally different lady and even went into New World with me to get a couple of items. The difference in her is very noticeable. When I visited her yesterday, I even felt the difference seeing her sitting in the lounge with her hair piece looking ‘normal’. To go into chemotherapy on Friday with her wig will make a huge difference. Leigh the lovely “wig lady” was the perfect person to see and talked to us about chemo actually being a drug of well health as it regenerates cells very, very fast. Hair loss is the old cells all clearing out reading for the body to create new cells. That’s why the hair grows back lovely and the skin is plumpy. It gave us both a different understanding of chemotherapy which got Mary through the tears and the fear. The human body is an amazing machine. Hell this woman is going to look younger than me soon! Needless to say the Wellington wind may cause us a few problems in regard to the wig, so have to learn some tricks J I’m not going to call it a wig, but will refer to it as her hair. Her comment to me was “I’ve never been bald in all of my life – I was born with a full head of hair!

My wig is very comfortable and easy to put on. Lots of compliments from friends and family on appearance. Thank you.

"My hair consultant was so professional, kind and caring. She made me totally comfortable and it was very nice experience which I was dreading. I could not have been more impressed. Fantastic service."
