What to Expect at a Hairpiece Consultation

Thinking about a hairpiece can bring up a lot of questions. You might be wondering what to ask, whether you need to know what you want ahead of time, or how to tell if an option feels right.

You don’t need to come in with all the answers. A consultation is a chance to talk through what’s going on with your hair, what you’re hoping for and which options may be worth exploring.

You can start with what’s been bothering you about your hair

You don’t need technical language to explain what you’ve noticed. Maybe your part looks wider than it used to. Maybe you’re avoiding certain styles or spending extra time trying to get coverage. Start wherever feels comfortable.

It can help to describe what you would like to change, and what you want to keep feeling like you. Your everyday habits matter too. The way you usually wear your hair and the amount of time you want to spend styling can help shape the conversation.

Bring a few things to your hairpiece consultation that help tell your story

You may want to bring photos of your hair from before you noticed a change, or styles that feel like you. If you already own a hairpiece, bring it along if you’d like to discuss what is or isn’t working for you.

You can also jot down questions ahead of time. When something feels personal or unfamiliar, it’s easy to forget what you meant to ask once you’re actually in the room.

Ask about the details that affect your decision

A hairpiece can involve decisions about the piece itself, customization, care and cost. You can ask about:

• Which options are available for the look or coverage you’re hoping for

• What can be customized, such as cut, color or styling

• What day-to-day care involves

• How long an order or customization may take

• The total cost and any ongoing care costs

• What the return policy is before you place a custom order

Custom-ordered pieces are non-refundable, so be sure you understand the price, timing and return policy before deciding to order.

Take the time you need

After the consultation, you'll receive a follow-up text or email summarizing the options we discussed, their pricing, and the care and maintenance each would involve. You can review everything in your own time and decide what feels right for you.
