better wig images coming soon!

Yes, we are working hard to improve and enlarge the wig images on the site www.wearmyhair.com. We think that though it may not be essential to always use live models to model the wigs & hairpieces, it is essential that all images of wigs on live models or mannequins must be really good. For a start, we are getting rid of brightly coloured backgrounds so that the wigs stand out rather than the backgrounds. We are then going to look at the quality of the photos themselves and improve them where possible. We are also going to look at having rotating images rather than static wig images showing front, back and side views.

Due any day now are some more short wigs. We have a cute little bob in a light red colour as well as a better mid-brown/ mousy colour and even white. Pictures will be posted here as soon as they arrive. Watch this space!

New wigs from new wig supplier




Well, here we are again, back from South Africa and inspired by all those gorgeous black girls all wearing fabulous wigs. Long wigs, medium length wigs, short wigs, even in the townships where many people are very poor, they still wear wigs in preference to their own afro hair.

We have a new wig supplier. In China again, and we are ordering some more shorter styles as many ladies after a certain age, prefer to have a shorter hairstyle than they perhaps did when they were younger. The stock we have is currently suited to the older lady and we need some more youthful short wigs for the " middle-youther "!

This is one of the similar styles

Patsy Kensit wig!




As seen on Strictly Come Dancing, Patsy Kensit wore a little black bob wig! At www.wearmyhair.com you too can buy this wig. Called Grace, it is a slightly longer than chin-length, medium length wig. Naturally, if you want it shorter, it can be shortened. A fab little bob, here are some pictures of it and you can buy it now online!

women's wigs, men's wigs, children's wigs!



New designs for gorgeous, free storage bags for women's wigs, men's wigs & children's wigs! Yes, for each order of just £55 or over, you can choose a free She-bag or He-bag for storing and traveling. She-she bags are for the real girlie girls amongst you and especially important for making it personal and nice. All the bags are hand-made from re-cycled fabric and are so much nicer than the plastic bag that the wigs and hairpieces and extensions are all supplied to us in!

They are great for storage, sleep-overs, and going on holiday - discreet and attractive all in one!

wig suppliers, children's wigs

The biggest advantage of being a wig supplier independant of the big wholesalers, is that I can supply wigs bespoke and to order. Again yesterday, I had a phone call from a lady about a child with leukemia whose predicted hair-loss will be so distressing to her that they have asked me to get her a wig made to match her own hair. This we can do. All we need is some photos showing head & shoulders and front, back and side views, and we can have that made for her. The lead time is usually about 2 weeks but at peak busy periods it can take longer. This is an ideal solution for anyone who wants a wig that will replicate, in as far as possible, their own style. If it is a children's wig, it helps to know the age of the child in order to gauge the suitable cap size.

Wigs in Cambridge



Wear my Hair® now a registered Trade Mark, I hope you notice! We exhibited our wigs, hairpieces & extensions last Sunday at the "Live Local, Love Local" Fair sponsored by Agenda Magazine. Held at Quy Mill Hotel, it was at first quiet but picked up in the early afternoon.

We got a great deal of interest with lots of people trying on wigs, hairpieces & extensions. For the first time we also displayed children's wigs and men's wigs.

Sales of wigs in both these categories are increasing as more and more people realise that there are alternatives to putting up with alopecia, cancer or leukemia caused hair-loss, and without spending hundreds of pounds. Nowadays, synthetic wigs are very well made and do not irritate the scalp or cause itching. They are lightweight, airy and comfortable and are suitable for children of all ages, providing that they prefer to wear a wig rather than using none or some other head covering.

The two children's wigs pictured here and the men's wig, style Oska, all sold very recently as did these two women's wigs
long wigs, Olivia, and Tilly.

The new video clips are up!

View all the new clips at www.wearmyhair.com/videoclips.php. They are much better than the earlier ones and I intend to keep updating them. I did actually forget to demonstrate the wig caps so I will do them next. Then I will do some more accessorising and show the She-bags, She-she bags and He-bags, the free, handmade little storage bags which are made from recycled fabrics and are so much more personal than the plastic bags that the wigs are delivered in.

demonstrations with wearing wigs videos

At last, I have made some much better video clips demonstrating wearing wigs and accessorising wigs. In fact, I have covered and will continue to cover the same topics as the previous videos, but using a camcorder the quality is so much better. I cannot upload them all just yet as some are too long and will have to be split into several, but demonstrating me wearing at least three different wigs, shows how fabulous it is at changing your look altogether. That is the message I give to all you white girls who, like me, have difficult hair and cannot style it the way you want to - loose it and wear a wig instead. Like me, you will begin to experiment and have fun with different colours and wig styles and lengths. Here are some of the clips now.

medical wigs for those with hairloss







BoldI have updated this page on my website to show the She-bags, She-she bags & He-bags as these people will really like them. They are great for taking anywhere you might need/want to take your wig on and off. Swimming for instance. Also, for going on holiday, travel and sleep-overs, these free bags are designed to add value and make wearing a wig, buying a wig, and storing a wig less impersonal and more pleasurable.

I have also added a couple of pictures of the models wearing wigs. How great do they look!

New video clips !


Hi everybody, finally getting round to doing the video clips again. This time, I will be using a camcorder and as well as all the previous stuff, will show me in different wigs to show how different it makes you look. You can wear nude make-up with a blonde wig, or much bolder with a darker wig. It is a great way to change your look between the seasons. I do tend to wear lighter colours in clothes, make-up and wigs in Summer and darker in Winter.

Hopefully, I will start the recording tomorrow as today, though I have done some recording, I really haven't got it as well in shot as I can so I will ask hubby to help me later. It is important and a significant improvement on the last videos to be able to show the wigs and hairpieces and extensions in full length. Will have another stab at it tomorrow!

She-bags, She-she bags & He-bags!




Been so very busy making more of these cute little storage bags for wigs, hairpieces, extensions - free with any order to the value of £55 or more! So much more fun than a plastic bag! Here are some of the new designs!

Friday 9 July 2010

New She-bags & She-she bags for storing wigs!




This is another new idea. An extension obviously on the She-bag and He-bag but with the emphasis on the She as in girlie. So there's She-bags and She-she bags. This will make it easier to choose the most preferred style of bag. The He-bag is quite male in style and colours, the She-bag is quite feminine in style and colour, but the She-she bag is totally, very feminine in style and colour. So, it makes it easier to select the most appropriate bag for the intended user.

I feel this is important. It is no good giving a free gift if the gift doesn't fit the intended user. I imagine a mother buying a wig for her daughter who is about to start chemo for cancer or leukemia and will suffer hair-loss as a consequence. This mother will know if her daughter is a girlie-girl who just adores everything pink, or not, and will be able to select the She-she bag if she is or the She-bag if she isn't.

This is just one scenario. It may be a guy. Like a young chap who came from Coventry last week to buy a mens wig. He just didn't like the fact that he was loosing his hair very young and almost bald at 24. No illness, just early balding. He can have the He-bag and in his case, this is great as he wants to keep wearing a wig a secret. So the He-bag will keep it very discreet for holidays etc.

Then again, there is the cross-dresser who orders a women's wig for himself and can then choose the She-bag, the She-she bag or the He-bag for himself. This is very important because all I get is an email address and a postage address and the person buying the wig or hairpiece may or may not be the end user so it is vital that they can self-select the bag.

Better just say that the She-she bag is not yet on the website as another tick box has to be added. It will be shortly!

Black girls want white girls hair and white girls want it too!


"The Mane Event," Sunday Times Style Magazine, yesterday. This article is all about the Black girls love affair with straight hair - and now, the white girls obsession with it too. And that is what www.wearmyhair.com is all about! Yes, it is primarily for white girls who want straight hair but, like me, have wavy, frizzy or otherwise unmanageable hair. Apart from my sister's cancer, the other catalyst for starting wear my hair™ was my own hateful mop! I have been wearing wigs now for several years and have no intention of stopping.

Because I wear a wig day in and day out, I know that synthetic wigs are absolutely fine - in fact better than real hair due to their affordability, so you can have several to suit moods or whatever! Have a look at the long wigs, medium length wigs and short wigs there's styles for everyone. We do mens wigs and childrens wigs too and with free delivery and a natty little storage bag free with every order of £55 or more, you just can't go wrong. Go see now! www.wearmyhair.com

New He-bags & She-bags for storing wigs!



Yes, they are free with all orders over £55. So whether its wigs, hairpieces or extensions you're into, you will automatically get a bag if you spend £55. That equates to any wig, hairpiece and just 4 extensions. But of course, it applies equally if you buy any combination of products. So if you bought some hair-care accessories that would count too. The total amount is £55 to qualify for a free bag.

New He-bags & She-bags for storing wigs!

Yes, new, and free He-bags and She-bags for storing your wigs, Hairpieces & extensions! They are designed by wear my hair™ and handmade from recycled fabric. The idea is to add value for customers by giving a beautiful bag for free with each other. An ideal way to store all your wigs, hairpieces & extensions, the He-bag and the She-bag can (site modification pending), be selected by the purchaser who may not actually be the end user. So, at the "Your Basket" page, the purchaser will select either the He-bag or She-bag box according to what they want.

It may be, as last week, a mother, using her husband's email, bought a childrens wig for her little girl who is undergoing chemotherapy. From the order, there would be no indication of this, but to effectively add value for the customer, it is essential to get the right bag to the right end user. This way, the little girl got a lovely pink bag and was thrilled. Also, much nicer to put your wig, hairpiece or extensions into a fabric bag when weekending away or going on holiday. Not only is it so much more attractive, but more discreet too for those for whom wearing a wig is a closely guarded secret!

Here are the first two designs! The He-bag!








And the She-bag!

accessorising your wig




I've been playing with a new wig that I have been wearing for a few days and it is a fab light red colour and sort of mid- neck length. I love the razor cut but I have not been too sure about the length, thinking that shorter is better on me. I found a solution and now really like it. I made little plaits out of the side bits and took them to the back of my head where I tied them with a ribbon and fixed them there as I threaded the ribbon through the weft. Here are the pictures. The wig is Cherie and the colour is FR25/27.

Pieces Parties!


Calling anyone interested in trying on, choosing and buying wigs, hairpieces and extensions! I have been waiting for exams to finish to plan and organise the first "Pieces Party". I will have it at home and invite, first and foremost, the models on my website, my helper, Sharman and their friends. Obviously, I will be hoping to sell some products, I will be hosting the Pieces Party and will incurr costs in doing that and providing refreshments etc. Nevertheless, I don't want people to think that they have to buy stuff each and every time they come. I hope though that people will enter into the spirit of it, and come expecting at some point to buy a wig or hairpiece or even some hair extensions. That will be fine.

The next thing then will be to remake some videos. The first lot have been quite successful and I have had some very good comments but I want to improve on them and do some more. All going to be happening soon! meanwhile, if you haven't already viewed the videos, you can view them here now!

Sorry, it simply did not upload. You can view them here : www.wearmyhair.com/videoclips.php

New live models on website!





At last, all the long wigs & medium length wigs are featured now on real live models. It really brings out the best features of the wigs. The wigs do look different though because on the mannequins, the necks are so long that the long hair wigs hang very long and straight whereas with the live models, the long hair and some of the medium length wigs drape across the shoulders which is more realistic really. Visit the site now to see them all www.wearmyhair.com. Here is a little preview and by the way, these girls are going to be the first, with their friends to come to the pieces parties!

First photoshoot with live models!

Getting ready for our first photo-shoot of live models wearing wigs to replace the pictures of long wigs and medium length wigs that are currently displayed on mannequins. This will be a big improvement and will enhance the look of the hair quality as it is being done by a professional photographer. I am wearing one too. A medium length red wig for fun. I've never worn anything but blonde wigs before but I really like this one. The pictures I took are not showing up yet so I'll have try again later.

New wigs, long and short, and... silver too!!http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif


Just in - another fabulous addition to the Gemma style of long wigs. Fabulously luscious, this new wig basically makes this item available from stock in black, blonde, red and now brown! Basically, we are now growing the range as and according to people's orders. This is partly out of necessity - ie when a wig is ordered that is not currently in stock, we have to order a minimum number and so that then increases our stock in terms of colour range available. It is also a good way to do it as it is customer lead.

We have also just got another two short style wigs. One is very much a blonde wig and in quite a flicky style as this goes down so well with the ladies of a certain age - or middle youthers, shall we call them!









The final new one is also a short style wig and in a lovely silver colour which is very popular at the moment. Even Lily Allen has been spotted wearing a silver wig!

Many ladies who, having come to terms with turning grey years ago, do not want to suddenly change hair colour just because it is thinning or they have alopecia. But it is difficult to match grey hair so a silver wig is often the best solution!

Video clips and better images


I have just bought a little camcorder to make better video clips and also to video the pieces parties. From next week, I will be making some new clips which will be much better as I will have the camcorder on a tripod and not have to squash so much in front of the little camera in my macbook. This will be much better. The views too of the wigs will be much better, showing off their length and lushness better.

In just under two weeks we will do the first photo shoot of real live models for the website. The models will be wearing the wigs and it will give a much better idea of what a wig can do for you to either just have fun for the evening, or to change your look altogether if you wear them all the time. Another important aspect of this is that we will have all the girls photographed wearing all the wigs irrespective of colour. So, we have two Indian girls whose natural hair is black. They will be seen in all other colours as I want people to get the idea that a wig does not have to look like your own hair - what would be the point? The idea is that you can have fun and experiment with other colours too. I have seen Japanese kids with their hair dyed blonde and against their skin colour it looks really great! Equally, a black girl with blonde or red hair looks stunning. Then, of course, you do not have to dye your own hair to have all this - just buy a wig for when you want to!

Video clips on wearing and caring for your wigs

Yes, at last, my first 9 video clips are done and they are on the website www.wearmyhair.com/videoclips.php.
They are also on YouTube www.youtube.com/user/wearmyhair. Though not brilliant quality, they do convey the messages which are, of course, all about wigs. They show the structure of a wig, how to put on and adjust it, how to style and trim the fringe, and they also discuss how to accessorise, wash and care for your wig. Unfortunately, I am only able to post a couple of clips here so go to the above links to watch them in full! I will put them on here as soon as I can.

Wig wearing on youtube!



Tomorrow is the day I load my video clips on wig wearing know-how onto youtube. You can find it here www.youtube.com/user/wearmyhair

I think it will be really useful for people considering wearing a wig for whatever reason. It will help them to see that it is really easy, not at all hot and that they never fall or blow off. Also that you can do all sorts of funky things to style them! They are such fun and the videos will be linked to my website also from tomorrow at www.wearmyhair.com

Saw a very moving story about a little girl from Suffolk who had a wig for chemotherapy as she was going to have a bone marrow transplant. I dont know where the family bought the wig but I bet they paid a load more than they would have had to from me and Cambridge is not so far from Suffolk! We do children's wigs for girls and boys! We offer free consultation with an appointment and all products are also available to buy online from www.wearmyhair.com
