We encourage our customers to give back to one another through telling their stories. At Joseph’s Wigs, our ongoing mission is to raise awareness of hair loss and help our community restore their confidence through wigs. With the help of our customers, we have done just that, and today, Jo bravely opens up about her wig wearing journey.

Jo’s story of how a wig helped an Alopecia sufferer feel more confident

3 years ago, Jo started wearing wigs so she could regain confidence as a transgender woman, who suffers from Alopecia Areata. Here is what Jo has to say of her journey so far.

Did you have any hesitations about wearing wigs for the first time?

“When I first considered wigs, my biggest concern was whether it would look unnatural.”

As a first-time wig wearer, it’s normal to have doubts about the naturality of your wig. But, with a few simple steps you can ensure your wig is positioned correctly so you can feel your most comfortable. Take a look at our guide and find out how to wear a wig.

How many wigs do you have in your collection?

“I have 7 wigs in my collection at the moment including the stunning Amore Codi wig in Hazelnut.”

Our best-selling angled bob with a side swept fringe, the Codi wig by Amore is perfect for those with sensitive scalps or suffering with Alopecia. Take a look at other natural-looking, synthetic wigs for Alopecia or learn more about our bob wigs by taking a look at our bob wig FAQs.

How often do you replace your wigs?

“I tend to replace my wigs every 6 months.”

Which is your go-to, human hair or synthetic hair wigs?

“Personally, I love synthetic wigs.”

Both human hair and synthetic wigs have their benefits. Whether you prefer the versatility of human hair or the cost effectiveness of synthetic styles, there’s a perfect match for your every preference. If you’re unsure which is right for you, here’s everything you need to know about real human hair wigs vs synthetic wigs.

What advice would you give to someone who is new to the world of wigs?

“My advice to someone going through a similar journey would be to try and find a style that suits your face, while also being manageable on a daily basis.”
