Wig Wam Hair describes itself as a small, family-owned business in Westbury. Clients come from Nassau and Suffolk counties as well as Brooklyn, Queens and Manhattan. Visits are by appointment only, and the store has private rooms for clients who want more privacy during fittings.
The store focuses on people with hair loss from medical problems, chemotherapy, radiation, several types of alopecia and trichotillomania. According to the store, cancer hospitals, cancer organizations, oncologists and beauty salons refer clients to it.
Clients are encouraged to book a free consultation before cancer treatment begins. The store carries human hair and synthetic wigs, and it explains the differences in how each is styled, cared for and how long it lasts. Licensed hairdressers on site handle wig cutting, and the store also offers fittings, alterations, coloring, washing and styling. The first wash is free for a new wig, and washing and reconditioning for other wigs has special pricing that clients can ask about.
For insurance, the store advises asking the prescriber for a prescription for a full cranial prosthesis and a letter of necessity from the physician, using an in-network provider, and having the invoice written for a cranial hair prosthesis. The store states that most insurance companies cover between 80 and 100 percent of the cost, though coverage varies by plan.
Built around clients with hair loss from medical treatment or conditions, starting with a free consultation and keeping wig care on the premises.
