Hi Everyone,
We unanimously agree - this brush is AWESOME! One of my employee's has a 7 year old daughter whose hair is a constant tangled disaster area with the each hair brushing session bringing trauma to both the mother and daughter. I gave her the detangling wet brush as a gift and everything is now puppies and rainbows!
But seriously, she swears by this brush - it detangles her daughters hair gently and easily. Our technicians agree that it is the mostgentle brush they've used when brushing out tangles on our wigs & hair additions. It literally slides through wet hair- which is when your hair is most susceptible to damage so having a brush that minimizes hair loss and additional damage can make all the difference in the longevity of your wig or hair addition.

Hi Everyone,
As you know, here at William Collier Design we specialize in creating custom and semi-custom wigs and hairpieces for people experiencing hair loss for any reason. Sometime's people might not be ready for a hair replacement system - we find DermMatch to be a great product. For example, we had a client come in this week who had some thinning on the top of his head - he was not ready for a hair replacemnt system but the DermMatch was able to take the shine away from the thinning area and he looked great!
Take a look and let me know what you think!
Judi Collier
Hair thickeners... DermMatch colors your scalp to match your hair color. It also coats and thickens thin hairs, making them stand up and spread out for maximum fullness. No product in the world can make your hair look this thick and full. DermMatch works instantly for men and women of any skin color, hair color or hair type...
Safe for hair growth... DermMatch is loaded with emollients and botanicals. Emollients are moisturizers that soften and protect your skin. Botanicals are natural ingredients derived directly from plants. DermMatch contains only safe colorants and no hair dye. The topical formula will never interfere with your hair's growth and you can use DermMatch with Rogaine, Propecia or transplanted hair. Read more about hair loss.
Easy application... Just rub it on. DermMatch is applied with a damp applicator to color the area quickly and evenly. Brush it through to coat thin hairs with thickening agents. Let it dry. Give a good thorough brushing and watch your hair puff up thick and full. You get step by step instructions and free replacement applicators whenever you need them.
Natural hairline... The EZ Grip, EZ Reach applicators give you precise control. If you're thin along the front hairline, apply the color back behind the hairline and use a dry applicator to fade the color forward. This gives you a perfect, natural hairline. Dry application can also give you the "5 o'clock shadow" look for super-short hair, beards and bald areas.
Swim, sweat or brush... DermMatch stays on so well you can scuba-dive. The diver shown here is wearing Dark Brown. Don't try this with sprays or sprinkle concealers. They can come right off if you brush or bend over. All cosmetics transfer if you rub directly into them. DermMatch launders off linens if needed. A color coordinated, satin pillow case works great with DermMatch. Any shampoo removes it completely.
Costs you less money... DermMatch is a solid, hard-packed powdered formula that lasts a long time. On average, our customers order one disc every 8 months. Spray, sprinkle and cream concealers don't last nearly as long and they will cost you much more to use.

Hi Everyone,
I'm very excited to tell you about a new, affordable line of European hair wigs and top-of-the-head hair additions we're offering here at William Collier Design. The hair is gorgeous! Silky soft and natural looking - they come in a variety of construction types with a "natural scalp illusion" model that shows no knots - the color is rich and multi-dimensional and best of all these are being offered at a much lower price point than our premium line of wigs and hair additions.
If you're considering ordering a new or back-up hair replacement system please take the time to come in and take a look at this new product line - once you feel the softness of the hair and see the quality of the construction - you'll want to order two so you're always covered!
As you know, the most important factor when investing in a hair replacement system is insuring the fit is right. That's where our technicians come in - you may need a custom mold or you may fit nicely into a standard size - the key is insuring you get it right the first time.
Our technicians have over 25 years in combined expertise coloring and cutting-in wigs and hair additions - they are meticulous perfectionists and precisely because it IS such an important investment - that's exactly who you want on the other end of the scissors.
There are too many lengths and colors to select from to put on our blog - I've posted pictures of a few of the styles available in this new line just to give you an idea.
All my best,
Judi Collier
***OMG - I can't get the picture's to UPLOAD...and if I work on it any longer I'm going to throw my computer out the window! I will try it again tomorrow - if you're interested you can email me and I'll send them to you as an attachment... : ) ***

Hi Everyone,
We get this question a LOT - what we know is that every insurance provider is different. Some insurer's will cover a portion or sometimes all of the cost of a wig (cranial prosthesis) while others won't cover any of the cost. It's extremely frustrating to me that insurance providers don't understand that for a woman to be able to work, and "be" in the world - having hair and looking normal is a major factor in feeling whole and facilitating the healing process.
I just had a call this week from one of our clients who is currently undergoing Chemotherapy, she said that what she didn't understand until she had her new wig, was that being able to leave her home and go about her day and not look "sick" was a huge boost to her mood and her sense of wholeness - by providing a feeling of normalcy she was more able to focus her energy on getting well and not worrying about other people's reactions to her condition.
When you're losing your hair (due to chemotherapy or any other reason) it's an emotional and stressfull experience and it can be difficult to process all of the information that is being thrown at you by your Doctor's - you need to be your own advocate to navigate the insurance maze and it can sometimes feel daunting. It helps if you can find someone in your Doctor's office who can help you work with your insurance provider to get financial renumeration for your wig or hairpiece...they work with insurer's every day and have built relationships within many different insurance provider's companies and it can expedite the process if you can get your paperwork into the proper hands as quickly as possible.
Every insurance company has a different policy - you need to review your policy get on the phone with your Insurance representative and ask WHAT EXCATLY they need from you to provide the maximum amount of coverage for your wig/cranial prosthesis.
Sometimes they want to see a Doctor's prescription, your doctor may need to write a letter or prescription that includes information as to why you need the wig, noting that it is not for cosmetic purposes but for your emotional well-being. They may also require supporting paperwork from the company that is providing you the wig or hairpiece (we can help with this.) The exact wording they require varies as well - you need to verify what they want, some insurer's want you to submit paperwork for a "Cranial Prosthesis" instead of a "wig" and some want just the opposite. Finding out their specific requirements can make all the difference in the amount of money you may be reimbursed.
As always, we are here to help in any way we can - if you have any questions about this information please feel free to post a reply or email me directly at judiwc@williamcollierdesign.com

I just received a community update from the Seattle Transit Authority and I wanted to give you a heads up that there will be new construction projects starting on 3rd Avenue this spring, all along the Transit Route Corridor. The project will create more attractive sidewalks and dedicated passenger wating areas, while improving bus travel times in the corrider.
You may need to plan for some extra time when coming to William Collier Design as the availablility of extra parking spaces may diminish due to the construction.

Building concrete bust bulb/curb and sidewalk extensions to elminate buses having to pull in and out of traffic at passenger loading zones.
Making improvements to street lighting

Alameda, CA. 11/09 - A jury has returned a $50 million verdict in a class action lawsuit against Avacor, a hair-loss remedy that was marketed as an all-natural, clinically tested product. The lawsuit alleged that the marketers of Avacor hair regrowth products violated California law by making unsubstantiated, false and misleading statements in connection with the advertising and sale of Avacor. The lawsuit also alleged misbranding and illeagal distribution of Avacor in violation of the law. The outcome against two defendants marked the second trial victory in the same class action for the plaintiff lawyers. Alameda County Superior Court Judge Robert Freedman commented, "The court can and does take judicial notice of the fact that enormous sums of money are spent on personal care and grooming products" adding, "Into this lucrative market stepped a band of hucksters, to prey on the vulnerability of human nature and employing a colossal array of false, deceptive and fraudulent techniques cynically collected millions of dollars from deceived Calfornia consumers."

Judi Collier
Donate Hair
Please Note: Anyone can cut your hair as long as the guidelines listed below are followed. We encourage all of our donors to go to a salon they are already familiar with to ensure their comfort when donating.
GUIDELINES FOR ACCEPTABLE DONATIONS
Hair that is colored or permed is acceptable.
Hair cut years ago is usable if it has been stored in a ponytail or braid.
Hair that has been bleached (usually this refers to highlighted hair) is not usable. If unsure, ask your stylist. We are not able to accept bleached hair due to a chemical reaction that occurs during the manufacturing process. **If the hair was bleached years ago and has completely grown out it is fine to donate.
Hair that is swept off of the floor is not usable because it is not bundled in a ponytail or braid.
Hair that is shaved off and not in a ponytail or braid is not usable. If shaving your head, first divide hair into multiple ponytails to cut off.
We cannot accept dreadlocks. Our manufacturer is not able to use them in our children’s hairpieces. We also cannot accept wigs, falls, hair extensions or synthetic hair.
Layered hair is acceptable if the longest layer is 10 inches.
Layered hair may be divided into multiple ponytails.
Curly hair may be pulled straight to measure the minimum 10 inches.
10 inches measured tip to tip is the minimum length needed for a hairpiece
Please Note:
Shorter hair will be separated from the ponytails and sold to offset the manufacturing costs. Although the shorter hair cannot be used in the hairpieces, it still greatly helps to reduce costs.
Gray hair will be accepted and sold to offset the manufacturing costs.
Colored hair is not usable if it is colored over bleached hair.
*The Hair Donation Form is not required to donate hair. If you are having trouble downloading or printing the Hair Donation Form, just write down your name and address on a full size separate sheet of paper and include it in the envelope with your donation so that we may send you an acknowledgement.

Hi Everyone,
We get lots of questions about how to best take care of a hair system - below is the information we typically share with our clients regarding how to shampoo, condition and store thier hair systems in order to maintain thier personal style while enhancing it's longevity. As always - we welcome your comments and questions.
Judi Collier
Instructions for Storing, Shampooing and Conditioning Your Hair System
We suggest that you always use the products recommended by your hair system specialist. If you are not satisfied with the results of these products, call for proper instruction. It is important that you maintain your hair system consistent with these instructions in order to insure the condition & longevity of your hair system
Storage:
The best way to store your hair system is to place it on a Styrofoam or canvas head block. It would be most appropriate to cover with plastic if for some reason you are not using it for a prolonged period.
Shampooing:
For the most desirable results; fill the basin with cool water, add two tablespoons of Shampoo (more if needed), mix shampoo and water until suds appear. Place the hair System into the basin and allow it to soak for a few minutes. There is no need to use any scrubbing or rubbing manipulations similar to those usually associated with shampooing. After the hair system has been in the sudsy water for approximately three to five minutes, drain the basin and rinse the hair with cool water until all shampoo is completely gone and gently squeeze excess water from the hair.
Conditioning:
Your new hair system will need to be conditioned after each shampoo. Completely saturate the hair with the conditioner. While the hair is wet and saturated with conditioner, using the appropriate brush, start at the ends of the hair and gently brush the hair in a downward motion to remove any tangle. After the conditioner has been on the hair for at least three to five minutes and the tangles have been completely removed rinse the hair with cool water. Do not use any force to remove tangles. After you have rinsed the hair, towel dry the hair to remove all excess moisture. Now you are ready to style the hair.
Styling:
Using the products recommended for styling the hair will help you achieve the desired results. When styling the hair use gentle motions; when using a hand held hair dryer use medium heat and hold the dryer four to six inches from the hair. After you have achieved the desired style, spray the hair with the hair spray recommended by the hair systems
specialist. For best results use hair spray sparingly.
General Maintenance:
Always store your hair addition on a styrofoam or canvas head block (smaller than the base to avoid stretching).
Most wearers can go from 10 to 14 days between shampoos.
Clean your tape and skin areas with alcohol wipes nightly.
Never store your hair addition near a heat source above 120 degrees.
Sunlight fades all hair.
Never perm, color or cut your own hair addition.
When using a curling or flat iron we recommend using a heat protective product such as AG Insulate.
Wearing your hair addition while you are sleeping, on a regular basis, is hard on the hair and fiber and may reduce the life of the hair addition.
Your hair addition will naturally lose hair over time. You can have hair added to the system, which will enhance the appearance.

RevitaLash is a company we are proud to work with - they not only have great products that actually work, they also contribute a portion of all proceeds to Cancer research initiatives. We offer both RevitaLash & RevitaLash "Hair Grow" on our on-line store - feel free to call us with any specific questions or to place an order on our toll-free number 1-877-457-2322 or just click below to place your order online.
Below you will find some general information about RevitaLash as well as answers to some frequently asked questions - as always we encourage and appreciate your comments and feedback!
Judi Collier
REVITALASH
Our mission at RevitaLash® is to create positive and lasting results. We are committed to giving back to the community that originally inspired the development of RevitaLash®. We proudly support and contribute to breast cancer research and treatment initiatives.
RevitaLash® Eyelash Conditioner is a remarkable cosmetic innovation that within weeks will dramatically beautify your eyelashes. Your natural eyelashes will look spectacularly Longer, Thicker, Fuller and BEAUTIFUL!
Frequently Asked Questions:
1. What is RevitaLash™ and how does it work?
RevitaLash™ is an eyelash enhancer that within weeks will help you achieve amazing looking eyelashes. Your natural eyelashes will look spectacularly longer, thicker and fuller. RevitaLash isnot a lash primer or mascara that simply builds up your lashes. RevitaLash strengthens your hair follicles and nourishes your lashes providing an optimal environment for them to appear longer, thicker and fuller.
2. How long before I see results?
With once daily use, measurable results can be seen in as little as 2-3 weeks. Optimal results are typically achieved within 60-90 days of daily use.
3. How is RevitaLash applied?
RevitaLash goes on clear and is applied just like liquid eyeliner. Once daily (a.m. or p.m.,) apply RevitaLash to base of the lids where the eyelash and lids meet. The applicator contains a measured dose of RevitaLash that is enough for one eye (top and bottom lids.) When finished applying to one eye (above the lashes on the upper lid where the lashes and lid meet and below the lashes on the lower lid were the lashes and lid meet,) insert the applicator back into the tube, remove and apply to other eyelids. This is the precise amount needed to achieve results. More is not better and could lead to irritation!
4. Is RevitaLash safe for contact lens and/or eyelash extension wearers?
Yes. RevitaLash was developed by an ophthalmologist and tested for over 2 years to insure safety and efficacy. In addition, there is no problem using RevitaLash along with contact lenses, eyelash extensions or even false eyelashes.
5. What happens when I stop using RevitaLash? Do I have to use it forever?
Once you achieve your desired results with RevitaLash (usually within 60-90 days,) you can switch to a maintenance program of 3-4 times per week. Just like taking vitamins or using skincare products,
maintenance is required to maintain results. If you completely stop using it, eventually your lashes will gradually revert to their original condition.
6. How long does a tube last?
The tube represents a 6-7 month supply when used daily on both eyes (top and bottom lids.) This is ample time to see optimal results and begin a maintenance program.
7. Does RevitaLash be used on eyebrows?
Yes… as long as the hair follicles are still active.
9. Is there anyone who should NOT use RevitaLash?
A)Pregnant or Nursing Patients: RevitaLash is a cosmetic and has not been tested in pregnant or nursing females, therefore as a precautionary measure, we do not recommend it be used by pregnant or nursing females.
B)Clients with a chronic eye disease or clients using a prescription eye medication should consult their doctor before using RevitaLash.
C)Clients with an active eye infection, active blepharitis or any allergies to the ingredients in the product, should not use RevitaLash.
Extra Info… a product you can feel good about using:
·A portion of sale proceeds goes to benefit breast cancer research and educational initiatives.
·Although RevitaLash is excellent for women and men of all ages, it was originally developed to help cancer patients following chemotherapy to strengthen and revitalize lashes. Please note that Athena Cosmetics’ recommendation is to wait 3 weeks following completion of all chemotherapy treatments before starting use of the product. However, please consult with your physician regarding use during chemotherapy.
Note: RevitaLash was tested for over two years to insure safety and efficacy before being marketed to the public. It was officially launched in mid-November 2006.

COMING SOON! ON-LINE FORUM!
William Collier Design is very happy & proud to offer a NEW on-line Forum for women, men and children living with hair loss. The intention of this site is to offer support and solutions for people experiencing hair loss of any kind; including hair-loss due to medical reasons (Chemotherapy) thinning hair, baldness, Alopecia or Trichotillomania.
Our goal is to connect people together to offer a supportive community that understands the unique issues surrounding living with hair-loss on a day-to-day basis.
We encourage your thoughts and questions weather you are new to the experience of living with hair-loss or are a person who has lived with it for years. We wish to provide an environment that offers education and support to all who choose to participate.
For those who are new to the idea of using an “On-Line Forum” I have included an abbreviated version of the Wikipedia definition for your review.
Weather you choose to be a “poster” or a“lurker” we are excited to offer this new service to you as a small way to enhance your day-to-day life.
People participating in an Internet forum can build bonds with each other and interest groups will easily form around a topic's discussion, subjects dealt with in or around sections in the forum.
Forum structure
A forum consists of a tree like directory structure containing at the lowest end topics (commonly called threads) and inside them posts. Logically forums are organized into a finite set of generic topics (usually with one main topic) driven and updated by a group known as members, and governed by a group known as moderators.
An unregistered user of the site is commonly known as a guest or visitor. Guests are granted access to all functions that do not require database alterations or breach privacy. A guest can view the contents of the forum or use such features as read marking. A person who is a very frequent visitor of the forum, a section or even a thread is referred to as a lurker and the habit is referred to as lurking. Registered members often will refer to themselves as lurking in a particular location, which is to say they have no intention of participating in that section but enjoy reading the contributions to it.
