Hi Everyone,

It's HOT outside (100+ degree's here in Seattle - eek!) and we are receiving lots of calls about ways to stay cool while wearing a hair replacement system - the first question I ask is "is your wig construction hand-tied or wefted?" Wefted construction is typically heavier. If you're currently wearing a wefted system I urge you to schedule a free consultation to take a look at an all hand-tied hair replacement system. Hand-tied wigs are lighter, the construction is more breathable and it makes a huge difference in your comfort level - especially on hot days. Additionally, if you have a polyurethane base material you may want to consider ordering a new system with either a mono-filament mesh or lace construction base - these are both more breathable and add addtional ventilation.

Also - I blogged about this before but it bears repeating the "Cool Gel Comfy Grip" Theraputic head band is GREAT for keeping cool. It creates space between your hair system and your scalp which allows for increased air flow AND you can put it in the freezer and make it cold and delicious prior to placing it around your head to use in lieu of tape. My clients love that it feels softer and more comfortable on thier bare scalp.

The Comfy Grip will;

Prevent Pressure Sores
Dissipate Body Heat
Reduce Skin Shear
Conforms to Help Cushion Pressure Points
Will not Absorb Body Fluids or Oils
Self Healing, Will Not Leak if Punctured

And best of all, "One Size Fits All" - so it's easy to order, please feel free to call or email with any questions or simply go to our on-line store at www.williamcollierdesign.com to order one for yourself or a friend.

As always we welcome your comments and suggestions.
