Dear All,
As I hang up my scissors today on Christmas Eve, I just wanted to take a quiet moment to say thank you.

Thank you for your loyalty, your kindness, your chats, your laughter, and for trusting me throughout the year. Your continued support truly means more than I can put into words, and it’s been an absolute privilege to welcome you into my chair time and time again.

You’ve made this year so special, and I’m incredibly grateful for each and every one of you. I couldn’t do what I do without your encouragement and support, and I never take that for granted.
I hope this Christmas brings you warmth, joy, and time with the people you love, and that the New Year ahead is filled with happiness, health, and wonderful moments.

Thank you again for everything. I look forward to seeing you in the New Year.
Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year,

Much love and warmest wishes
Katie ❤️

After a hectic, tiring day in salon and feeling very weary I received this lovley message. I am so grateful to be able to work beautiful clients. This message made my day ❤️

Fresh off the press ✨
Did you know custom human hair toppers come in different base sizes? This beauty is a 9x9 inch piece, measured perfectly to fit my client’s needs. Getting the right base size is everything — it protects your natural hair and prevents further hair loss, which is the last thing anyone wants.
This is a custom-made 14” topper is in shade #3, and she’s about to get a little root shadow + bespoke colouring to keep her looking effortless, natural, and absolutely stunning. Because “too perfect” isn’t the goal — realistic and confidence-boosting is 💁🏻‍♀️✨ If you are need of my helper hair wherever a bespoke wig or topper, don’t hesitate to DM me- my links are in my bio ❤️

My amazing strong, resilient, happy go lucky client who’s been undergoing radiotherapy to her scalp 💛 She’s heading back to work next week and wanted some helper hair to feel more like her again.
She brought me an inspo pic of her original style & colour. I had the base shade in stock and customised it to blend seamlessly with her bio hair.
She even braved that dreadful weather for her fitting on Wednesday, where I cut and styled the wig to match her old look.

Today she came back, again in that horrendous downpour and rain, because the front still felt a little heavy — so I added feathering, light layers and a slightly deeper fringe. She left absolutely glowing ✨

Am I the cheapest for human hair wigs & toppers? No, I’m not, but I’m not the most expensive either.

And all too often, many so-called “wig salons” don’t offer proper cutting or customisation skills. That’s why you’re not just buying a wig from me — you’re partnering with my expertise, craftsmanship and support throughout your journey.

My human hair wigs and toppers are luxury, high-end pieces, and I’m here every step of the way 💛✨

💔 From heartbreak to Head-Turner ❤️‍🩹
I hear this story all the time, and it really upsets me.

“My amazing client came
to me stressed and heartbroken. She’d been to another wig salon where they just plonked wigs on her head. No listening. No understanding. No customisation or cutting offered. She was ready to give up on ever looking like herself again. “

When she came to me feeling lost and stressed, my first job was to build trust.

I had to prove, listen, understand her needs and provide, as always, an honest consultation.

Her wish list was a wig with versatility, but not human hair and to look like herself & bio hair and I was only happy to oblige.

The final look is the result of years of honed wig cutting skills, the imagination and knowledge as
to what wigs you can manipulate to create a look that truly reflected her and her needs.

Here she is wearing a heat friendly wig that didn’t start at the same length or style but the colour and natural hairline was spot on. She is absolutely thrilled beyond belief, and that confidence is everything. I thank her for trusting me.

✨Please note I only cut and customise wigs purchased here in salon. I work
exclusively with trusted, global market brands to ensure integrity and longevity of the fibre and the cut. ✨

Apologies for being a little quiet lately — it’s been an exciting year with the arrival of my beautiful baby granddaughter and a very busy time in the salon!
With Christmas just 44 days away, now’s the perfect time to plan your festive hair. Please book early to avoid disappointment: human hair options take around 28 days to make, and synthetic or heat-fibre wigs also have longer lead times at this time of year.
All my contact details are available in my bio. ❤️

✨Why I’ve Chosen Not To Cut Other Supplier’s Wigs✨

After careful consideration, I’ve made the decision to no longer offer cutting services for wigs purchased from other suppliers. Here’s why:

1️⃣ I’m just too busy!
Running my own business and ensuring the best quality for my clients means my time is incredibly valuable. I want to focus on perfecting the pieces I create and offer the best service possible. 2️⃣ The Quality Isn’t Up to Standard:
When it comes to wigs, quality is EVERYTHING. I’ve seen too many wigs from cheap suppliers that don’t meet the high standards I uphold. I don’t want to risk compromising the final result by working with pieces that don’t align to my brand’s commitment to excellence.
✨What You Get When You Purchase From Me:
Any Wig / Topper purchased directly from me comes with a COMPLIMENTARY CUT to ensure it’s styled just right for you! Plus, I offer human hair colouring for a bespoke, personalised look that perfectly suits your style.

I’m all about offering the best experience and products to my clients, and this decision ensures that I can continue doing just that. Thanks for your understanding and continued support! ❤️

Why it’s critical to care for your Human Hair Wig / Topper This Winter.

Winter is here,and while we’re layering up and braving the cold, our wigs & toppers need extra love and attention! Human hair is an investment, and the dry, chilly air and harsh winds can take it toll, leaving them frizzy, tangled, and dry if not cared for properly. I offer a human hair wash, deep condition & style service (slide through to see the transformation) but if you can’t get to me here’s how you can keep your piece manageable, soft and stunning all season long:

Hydration is key:
Cold weather can strip out moisture from hair. Use a sulphate - free, moisturising shampoo and deep conditioner to keep it soft and hydrated. A weekly deep- conditioning treatment works wonders!

Use A Leave In Conditioner:
Spray a lightweight leave in conditioner to help
lock in moisture and add an extra layer of protection against the elements, especially on windy days.

Combat Frizz With Oils:
Apply a lightweight hair oil or serum to the ends for extra nourishment. Be cautious not to over do it - less is more/

Store Safely:
When not wearing your hair replacement, store it on a wig stand in a cool, dry place to avoid tangling and maintain shape.

Say No To
Overwashing:
Washing often can strip oils. Aim to wash every 60/70 hours of wear.

Don’t Skip Detangling:
Use a wide tooth comb or a wig brish daily to derange, starting from the ends and working your way up.

Protect It From The Wind:
Winter winds are notorious for causing tangling and breakage. They also suck moisture from your wig, leaving it dry and brittle. When stepping outside, wear a scarf, hat or hood to shield your wig. Opt for silk or satin linings to reduce friction and minimise frizz.

Avoid Heat Damage:
Limit the use of hot styling tools like straighteners and curling irons. If you must use heat, always apply heat protectant spray to prevent dryness and split ends.

Taking these steps can make a huge difference in protecting your wig from winters harsh conditions. Kept it nourished, frizz free, and ready to
Turn heads no matter what weather! ❤️
