The View upsets Alopecia World
"The entire show offends my sensibilities. I don't think their intent was to make offensive comments about people with alopecia, however. They get off topic faster than you can say Barbara Walters."
Karen's Wigs posted a blog postGuest "listener" at NAAF NYC-chapter monthly meeting
I had a wonderful evening at last Monday night's NAAF meeting here in NYC. Rather than give the usual "these are our wigs" routine, I asked for feedback from the other guests regarding their wig-buying experiences - good, bad or other. Almost everyone stressed a need for patience as the wig buying experience is a "journey". Other points included not being too technical, especially with people buying their first wig.All-in-all, it was a very special evening and I'd like to thanks to Jodi…See More
Karen's Wigs replied to Somaaya's discussion Alopecia getting me down"First, you're absolutely correct in no knows how you feel but people want to say something rather than ignore your pain. Emotional pain comes in many different shapes and sizes - your's is alopecia - mine is epilepsy and other people may…"
Karen's Wigs replied to Josephine Bihl's discussion What should I do?"Here in the US we have had some very tragic incidents with regards to teenagers bullying other teenagers. Most people shrug it off as kids being kids but the fact is that until we are in our late teens or early twenties, the part of our brains that…"
Karen's Wigs replied to Jules's discussion How to care for a human hair wig?"Rule #1 - always use cold water (and always keep your wig away from extreme heat such as ovens, stoves, etc.). Use a mild shampoo and conditioner. A wig stand is best for drying because air can get in and dry it from underneath. A shower head works…"
Karen's Wigs replied to Karen Froehner's discussion Healthcare Reform"Stay ON your soapbox. I don't know how some people can live with themselves working for a health insurance company. The person that told you to wait until phase two must not have a soul or a conscience.
Fact: the same man who created the…"
Karen's Wigs replied to Karen Froehner's discussion Healthcare Reform"That was the nazi propoganda theme: "tell an outrageous lie and tell it often enough and eventually people will accept it for the truth". Consider also that Germany was in a state of political and economic turmoil (sound familiar) making…"
Karen's Wigs replied to Karen Froehner's discussion Healthcare Reform"For starters,those alopecians without coverage would be able to go and get treatment. There has been a bill in D.C. for a long while that would cover wigs for alopecians through medicaid or medicare (forget which one.)"
Karen's Wigs replied to RENEE's discussion Lupus and hairpieces"Hi Rene - There is a feature called a monofilament top which provides comfort to the wig wearer. Hand-made wigs are lighter than machine-made while synthetic pieces are easier to care for than human and are less expensive."
"Hi Karen its JoJo, I went to you once before when I was considering one of your wigs. I am going to make an attempt to call you next week to perhaps shape up the one you are holding for me."
Karen's Wigs left a comment for Karina"I honestly do not know. What I can tell you is that our clients who have lost their hair due to the side effects of chemotherapy do regrow their hair. These wigs have a mesh base not a solid one which may or may not help with the regrowth. I wish I…"
