About

The Custom Wig Shoppe is a family-owned business run by women, located on Manchester Road in St. Louis.

Wigs are offered in two types. The shop keeps a large selection of synthetic wigs in stock, with prices from about $200 to $1,000 depending on hair length and construction. Human hair wigs are special ordered on request, with prices from about $1,000 to $5,000 depending on length and construction. The shop also carries human hair toppers that are ready to go, and offers human hair and synthetic toppers that can be custom colored, styled and sized. Hats, chemo scarves and turbans are available, designed to fit over wigs and toppers, with adjustable turban fits. The business describes its wigs as made with fine quality hair.

New clients are invited to a free consultation for wigs and hairpieces, booked by phone or online. Fittings usually take about 45 minutes to an hour. A free wig cut or trim is included with a new wig purchase, to be done within 30 days of buying the wig.

Customized hairpieces can add volume, length or coverage, blended with natural hair or a wig. The shop says its team is trained to serve clients who are undergoing chemotherapy, experiencing hair loss or living with alopecia, and it offers salon services designed for those needs.

The shop states its goal is a satisfying, relaxing experience in an inviting setting. It describes itself as a premier destination for wig and salon needs in St. Louis. Some insurance companies reimburse for hair prostheses with a doctor's prescription, and the shop writes sale receipts to support those claims. Appointments can be booked online, and payment is accepted by credit card, PayPal and Google Wallet. The shop is open Tuesday to Friday 10:00 am to 4:00 pm and Saturday 10:00 am to 3:00 pm, and is closed on Sunday and Monday.

The shop tailors wigs, toppers and hairpieces to each client through consultation, custom coloring, styling and sizing. It describes its aim as a relaxing, satisfying visit.
