Tsunami Hair Studio LLC opened on March 18, 2022, at its Benning Road location in northeast Washington, DC. The About page credits LaToya Walker with the vision for the business.
It makes custom cranial prosthesis wigs and hair pieces, which the site describes as breathable, ventilated and natural looking, and cranial prosthesis services are customized for severe hair loss in textures from very tightly coiled to straight. Other services include hair replacement units with color, extensive and routine maintenance for units already in place, and alopecia-focused sew-ins, crochet installs and tapered crochet cuts, all with hair included where noted. Health insurance typically covers 80 to 100 percent of cranial prosthesis costs when a doctor prescribes them, according to the site, and the studio accepts insurance for these services.
New services require a consultation before booking, either in person or virtually, and the booking platform lists both a Hair Loss Consultation and a first-time client consultation. Afterpay payment is available, subject to credit approval.
Operating as a nonprofit with 501(c)(3) status, Tsunami School of Hair & Design teaches cosmetology and business courses, with state board preparation included in its offerings.
The studio's stated customer promise is a good experience from arrival onward, beyond the service itself.
