Am I able to get my wig customised?
Trevor Sorbie (Director) gives expert video advice on: Where can I get a good wig?; How do I choose a wig that will suit me?; Will the NHS pay for my wig? and more...
When you buy a wig, bear in mind that the wig is made for anyone and everyone, so one size fits everybody and the chances are that you're going to need it customised for you as an individual. Usually there's too much hair put into a wig, so it looks an abnormal amount of hair. By the use of thinning scissors you can take a lot of that bulk out. There's not many hairdressers that will customise wigs, simply because we're not trained. Hairdressers are not trained to cut wigs, either in colleges or schools, up and down the country - it doesn't exist. Having said that, I'm going to set up a series of teaching seminars. L'Oreal, the color company, are supporting me on this. They believe in my initiative and are financially helping me to set up seminars to actually teach hairdressers how to customise wigs. My crusade in this is to get as many hairdressers behind this to help ladies in their darkest hour.
