| As you start thinking about your options for coping with hair loss, it’s perfectly normal to have questions.
How do I find a Heart of Gold wig retailer near me?
It’s easy. Just type your zip code into the “find a retailer” search at the top of the page, and you’ll be shown which retailer(s) are in your area. |  | |

Won’t a wig be hot? Itchy? Uncomfortable?
No – you’ll be surprised at how comfortable a wig is to wear. To ensure the most lightweight, comfortable feel, look for wigs that feature WhisperLite® fiber and an open cap for greater air circulation and a cooler feel. Other features like velvet bands and open cap construction provide much-needed comfort for sensitive scalps.
How can I be sure my wig won’t shift or fall off?
Your wig should fit you both comfortably and securely. Choosing a wig in your correct size makes a big difference. Also look for wigs that feature SOFTouch® non-slip lining that gently adheres to your head. When your wig fits correctly, it should not move at all.
Could a wig cause damage to my scalp, or slow my own natural hair growth?
No, absolutely not. Wearing a wig will not harm your scalp or inhibit regrowth. In fact, a wig will make you feel better and more confident about your appearance, while helping maintain body heat and prevent overexposure of your sensitive skin during this time. Many women choose to wear their wig until their own hair has grown in enough to style and shape.
Do I need more than one wig?
Some women find it convenient to have two wigs. That way, they can wash one while they wear the other, giving them the flexibility and reliability of always having one ready to wear at a moment’s notice. You might like being able to alternate wigs to maintain their freshness and beauty. But that’s an individual decision, and depends on how often you wear your wig.
What is a sleep cap and why should I have one?
A sleep, or slumber, cap is a soft cotton cap that you wear every night. Once hair loss begins, some women wear one to keep hair fall under control. Once you shave your head (which also helps manage hair fall) or lose your hair, a sleep cap is recommended to maintain body heat and keep your head protected.
How much will a wig cost?
Several factors influence the cost of your wig: the type of wig (synthetic or human hair) and wig construction, consultation and fitting, the amount of cutting and styling required, and whether wig care accessories are included. Total cost can run anywhere from $50 to several hundred dollars. Ask your stylist for an estimate during your initial consultation. | |
