Hi - I'm thinking of buying a freedom wig. I've been really happy with monofilament ones but have to admit I like the idea of one that doesn't irritate my scalp (noticed this more in the past year!)…Continue

Catherine replied to Catherine's discussion Semi-permanent eyebrows or not?"Thanks everyone! I've made my decision not to go ahead, maybe I will one day but for now I think I'll take my time, it could grow back and I have an appointment with a doctor next week. I'll be £300 richer which is always…"

JeffreySF replied to Catherine's discussion Semi-permanent eyebrows or not?"Hi Catherine,
I've had my eyebrows tattood in for 3 years now. It's the best thing I ever did.
Pointers...less is more. Dont go overboard with dark and thick. Go lighter and with a hairstroked technique. Find an artist that knows what they…"

Hi - I'm trying to decide whether to go with semi-permanent brows. I've been lucky enough to have fairly decent eyebrows for a few years but in the past couple of months my left brow has nearly all gone!!I've had a couple of consultations with 2 different semi-permanent make up artists but have gone away still undecided. Both of them drew what seemed to be very thick dark eyebrows on to give me an idea but I found it hard to say I liked them as its so different from my normally thin (but still…See More

Catherine replied to Catherine's discussion Blatant discrimination!"Hi everyone - thanks for your posts on this. The owner of the bigger salon contacted me directly and has apologised and would like to meet me to see what they can do. I still think someone in the salon just deleted my email but if they're going…"
Catherine replied to Catherine's discussion Blatant discrimination!"Thanks Tommy - I thought they might just be slow, thats why I sent the second email to 'test' them. It sounds sneaky but I hate being treated unfairly."
Catherine replied to Catherine's discussion Freedom Wig Cost"Thanks! I just put a note on your page. Luckily there's a salon quite close to me so will try there soon! I'm getting married next year so want some extra special hair for then!"

Hi - I'm thinking of buying a freedom wig. I've been really happy with monofilament ones but have to admit I like the idea of one that doesn't irritate my scalp (noticed this more in the past year!) and one where the elastic doesn't go after a few months. Has anyone got one and do you mind saying how much it cost? Do you think I could get one for £1500? I heard they're really expensive but I think thats my maximum (for a long hair wig) My £450 one suits me ok so couldn't justify or afford more…See More
Catherine replied to Ryan Hochhausen's discussion Alopecia, does it make you healthier?"Maybe the fact that it hits when you're younger makes a difference. If you compared a 25 year old with and without alopecia they might both be as healthy but the person with alopecia might be thinking more about their general health so they…"

- Hi again, yes definately meet up after Christmas...I personally couldn't even let my husband see me without a piece on but thats just me. As to a bonded piece depending on what type glue or tape you use is as to how long it stays on for. you can do a daily wear, 3/4 days or few weeks. I am going to use the few weeks at the time attachment. That way I only need to remove it about 1 hour a month just to clean the base and it will feel like its a part of me, rather than taking it off everyday...I know of a wig place in Usk which does wigs and cardiff called periwig. I think they do suction ones. Hope that helps. :-)

- I am having my system made by Farrell hair. Although American company there is a salon in Leeds, but I met with him in Birmingham for the fitting. It should be ready end of January/February. I actually live in Newport, just over the bridge, although I did put Bristol. I might aswell live in Bristol as I am always shopping there lol!! If you fancy meeting up for a coffee at the Mall at cribbs or Cabots let me know. Its so good to be able to talk to other people. I have read on the Freedom wigs, but my only concern is do you have to take it off at night or can it stay on like a bonded piece? Chin up as there are some great one out there now that look amazing. :-)

- Hi Catherine. Nice to see your positive, ad it doesn't effect your life that much. I have recently ordered a hair system and it will be bonded as I would hate anyone to see me without hair! I know I sound vein :-) Do you wear a system?
