It is unbelieveably common and not just in ladies of a certain age. Women with hair losss invariably think that they are an isolated case and do not realise that women can suffer from baldness as well as men. Female pattern baldness may begin as early as puberty. In these cases it is usually a sign of hormone imbalance. Such as excess facial hair or body hair. Hormonal changes are a common cause of female hair loss. Hair loss can also occur after pregnancy. It may also follow any sudden physical or psychological stress to the body. These types of hair loss are called Telogen Effluvium and are usually temporary. It is important to remember that this hair loss may be delayed by up to three months following these changes and may need up to eight months for regrowth to be fully achieved. The most common type of hair loss seen in women is androgenetic alopecia it is predominantly over the top and front ... 2007-12-2 09:52:03 http://www.wigsandco.co.uk/page18.htm#15956 We are pleased to announce that we now stock Gisela Mayer wigs from Germany. These fantastic wigs are from the popular collections of Classic Fashion City Concepts Vision News and Medical. We have a large selection in stock to choose from as well as our other popular makes.

We did an exhibition at Llanelli which yielded lots of contacts and opened new avenues in providing wigs to lots of different people. At the exhibition breast cancer care were there and we hope to work alongside them in providing mastectomy bras for their clients. We also had a lot of interest from modelling agencys who plan to use our wigs on their models and female body builders. So it just gos to show wigs arent just for people who have experienced hair loss. We continually get new wigs in stock and now with the Autumn here we now have a large range of scarves for ladies and children. Our last chocolate evening was a great success and everyone had a great time. It was a very informal evening where adults and children indulged in chocolate covered marshmallows and strawberries. On the evening ladies got to try out our wigs switchtails and clip in hair extensions as well as being able to purchase jewellery and childrens gifts. So on... 2007-9-30 09:42:22 http://www.wigsandco.co.uk/page18.htm#11660 Here at Wigs amp Co we have taken the decision to incorporate even more suppliers of quality wigs. As well as old favorites such as Henry Margu and Hair World we have wigs from Noriko Rene of Paris and Amore and our own collections specially made for Wigs amp Co. Recently we have had a lot of interest in bandannas. Many boys who are undergoing chemotherapy lose their hair and are quite happy to wear baseball caps . The film the Pirates of the Caribbean has seen a great interest in pirate themed bandannas. So for that reason we have supplies of skull and crossbones fire and skulls paisley and camouflage bandannas especially for the boys. Also badges to adorn the bandanna to give it that cool look that boys so want The website is continually growing and we are trying to incorporate as much information as possible. Look out in the near future for our tips on how to look good whilst undergoing chemotherapy. ... 2007-6-9 15:41:54 http://www.wigsandco.co.uk/page18.htm#11219 For those of you who dont know me and my family personally. My daughter Manon was diagnosed with A.L.L. Leukaemia cancer of the blood. She was three weeks short of her 4th birthday when we were told she had Leukaemia. What followed was two and half years on chemotherapy. The first year of very intense chemo followed by maintainance chemo. During that time she was fitted with a port in her chest from which the drugs were fed into. She also had to take upto 15 tablets a day as well as steroids in the legs as part of her treatment. As anyone who has had treatment for cancer will know the side effects can be extreme. From mouth ulcers aches and pains to sleeping for hours on end. Thankfully she has completed her treatment and has been in remission for nearly 2 years. The Round Table Foundation then granted Manon a wish. Please read on to find out what her wish was.Last week Manon finally realised her dream to swim with the dolphins. She had waited nearly 2 years for her wish t... 2007-5-25 18:25:12 http://www.wigsandco.co.uk/page18.htm#8097 At our last meeting I carried out a number of beauty therapies for the mums and dads of kids that have had or are currently going through chemotherapy. It is a chance to catch up with what has been going on since our last meeting and also very beneficial for new parents of children newly diagnosed with cancer. Our meetings are very informal and group based. One of my popular therapies is the bio detox spa which releases toxins through the feet. It is very similar to a foot spa. Depending on how toxic your body is when having the treatment the colour of the water changes from light brown to muddy brown and sometimes has fatty deposits floating on top. Parents of children newly diagnosesd are the ones whose water is the darkest. As time goes on and their child gets through the treatment the water in the bio detox spa gets lighter. Also very enjoyable is the hand and foot wax. which is like a mini sauna and very beneficial if you suffer from bad circulation athritis or ... 2007-4-18 19:25:47
