Head Scarf Remix

 This Hats with Heart Scarf is pre-tied, and it has an elastic band in the back to adjust to every head size.  You may be wondering why I am excited about this scarf?

 Well, it is 100% polyester on the exterior, but it has a 100% COTTON lining.  This means more breathability of the scalp and less sweating.  The more air to the scalp the more hair growth.  For those who already have silk, cotton sateen, or netting that is working for them for night-time, then keep up the good work!  However, if your head is wrapped in 100% polyester all night, then consider these Hats with Heart scarves as an option.

"Hats with heart" specializes in meeting the needs of cancer patients and those with alopecia, burns, lupus and more.  I discovered them at a BellDonna's wig shop in my local area; however, you can order them online at Hatswithheart.com

Hair Extensions: Wefting your own Hair

 I met Ms. Alix Moore at the Bronner Brothers Atlanta Hair Show in August 2013.  She had a ($200??) DVD that showed you how to weft your own hair among other things.  She also can get poeple started as human hair extensions distributors.  She can host Indian Travel tours to identify your hair supplier.

She sparked some business ideas in my head- like what if cancer patients cut their hair off and wefted it before starting chemotheraphy?  That way, they can wear a wig or a hairpiece made out of hair from their own head?

How about all of those who do a BIG Chop?  What if you could make a track out of your own hair from a "big chop?"

Any feedback? Anyone willing to sell their hair as long as it's five inches or more for me to experiment with different colors and chemicals?  I may be interested in buying cut hair if it's bundled and stored in a clean storage bag. Let me know!

Cranial Prothesis Review





Cranial prothesis look like a wig, but typically, the inside of the unit is more detailed for partial replacement or repair. Full lace wigs are more simple and now much more cost effective to replace the whole unit as needed. Pictured is a cranial prothesis. Notice the inside of it. It also has a lace front. The front is a delicate, fragile lace. The lace frontal can be replaced with another partial lace frontal. The cranial prothesis is built to last.

This particular unit is made with 18 inch Indonesian human hair. From front hairline to longest layer is like 26" inches. This unit can cost as much as $2500 USD. Due to the dip in the economy, this exotic, long unit averages around $1000 to $1500 USD. Due to the high quality hair and thickness of the unit, I would recommend this unit to those who work television, motion pictures, film, stage, magazine covers, anywhere length and volume benefit your pay. The hair on this unit is too expensive to be cutting several inches off.

I keep it in a locked display waiting for that perfect customer. Hair color is 2/4.

From what I am told cancer patients may get reimbursed for cranial prothesis, but not wigs.
