William and Staff
Thank you for seeing my sister in law Yvonne today. It was a very
uplifting and informative consultation. She came out of your shop truly
thankful for all your warmth, assistance, advice and understanding. She is
so thankful I had you as a contact to go see. Thank you for making a
difficult situation a warm and inspiring hour even. You are truly
professionals.
Thank you.
Letter from a female, transgender client.... Dear Judi and William
Thank you! I have always been so self conscious about my hair. Now it looks and moves so naturally that I can't imagine anyone would guess its' not my own. You'll have to forgive me but initially I had my doubts that the style suited my face. It wasn't until about an hour later as I was looking in Carla's (esthetician, make-up artist) mirror that I began to appreciate it. I guess it just took a little time to grow accustomed to the change. Carla was great by the way. It was really fun and she was very helpful.
Because of my "issues" I'm often reluctant to seek out the very people who can help me the most. I am so glad I called you. My visit to your salon was a very positive experience for me.

Seattle CitySearch review by chemotherapy client
When I first went to William Collier Design I was at the lowest point of my life. I was in desperate need of something, anything, to boost my spirits and help see me through such a difficult time. Well I found it the minute I walked through the doors of their wonderful salon. They are warm, compassionate and so professional. They very kindly guided me through, and helped diminish, a very painful time for me. I not only came away with a beautiful wig, I also found new hope and a hairdresser and salon that I will always trust. This experience helped change my life and I highly recommend William Collier Design for anybody's salon needs. They are the best! Great Parking!! Very convenient.

Review on Seattle CitySearch from Male Client 9/9/08
If you're considering hair replacement, I highly recommend William Collier Design (WCD). You're always treated with respect and dignity at WCD. I have been with WCD for over 5 years now and I am so happy I made the move from that large hair replacement company. The staff is professional and flexible with my personal situation. Also, if there's ever a problem, they make it right as quickly as possible. I also love the salon feel at WCD. It's truly night and day from those large hair replacement companies that are located in some office park.

Seattle City Search Review from Female Client 6/3/08
I have trichotillomania and made an appt with William Collier Design after finding them on the TLC website. They were extremely compassionate and discrete and made me feel completely comfortable. I went in for a consultation and walked out with the most beautiful wig you could ever imagine. When I left, I had to hug them. My hair is gorgeous and my life is completely changed.
THANK YOU!

Seattle City Search Review from Female Client 5/1/08
I have had an absolutely wonderful experience at William Collier. From my first visit I felt so welcomed and accepted. I just had my cut in of my new hair and I am in Love. I have lived with insecurity around my thin hair for so long that I almost forget what it felt like to feel confident in the way that my hair felt and looked. I left the salon feeling absolutely beautiful... After receiving my new hair all I wanted to do was to jump up and hug William! It looks soooo natural that when I went to work everyone positively commented on my haircut! I am certain I was unrecognizable to some people whom have never seen me walk with confidence and a new spring in my step! Thank you so much to William and to Judy and Echo for such quality, professional care, excellent customer service and loads of knowledge. I most definitely would recommend William Collier Salon to anyone without any hesitation!

Seattle City Search Review from Mother of Female Client 10/30/07
This is a very special "thank you" to William and his staff for changing my daughter’s life.
I would say to anyone out there that has any hesitation about William Collier's hair system....run, don't walk, as fast as you can to see him. It literally changed my daughter's life. She was so concerned about her hair loss that she had begun to refuse social invitations. Now that she has her "new hair" she is a new person. All people ever ask her is "where did you get that cute hair cut". She lives out of state so when she tells them in Seattle their reply is "oh, of course".
From the minute you walk in the door they make you feel like an old friend. William and his staff are very professional, capable and you know that you are in good hands - and on top of all that - they are fun!
I urge you, don't hesitate, go now!

Seattle City Search Review from Female Client 10/10/07
I have trichotillomania and this is the first salon that I have gone to that is educated about my condition. Wendy and Rhonda were professional, respectful, courteous -- I felt so comfortable "letting my hair down" in front of them. Wendy first really looked at my hair before my haircut and Rhonda informed me about the hair replacement options that are available to me from them without any pressure to purchase one right away. I would highly recommend William Collier Design for someone with trichotillomania - it is a first-class salon.

Letter and City Search Review from Male Client 9/5/07
It’s been nearly two months since the “cutting in” and I could not be happier with the results. From my initial phone conversation with Rhonda, until now as I enjoy the final results, every step of the process has exceeded my expectations. William Collier Design has treated me with dignity, warmth, and respect. The quality of my hair system is orders of magnitude better than what I previously was wearing. So much so, that sometimes I even think, “it looks too good!” Just kidding. I love it! I recently visited my 87 year-old Mom who has not seen me for quite a few months and she remarked upon how great I looked. She thought I’d gotten a fantastic hair transplant and wanted to know the surgeon’s name because her own hair is thinning. I just told her I got lucky and that at her age she probably shouldn’t do surgery. :) So thanks again for everything. You guys are fabulous.
P.S.

Yelp.com Review from Chemotherapy Client, 6/1/07
William Collier and his staff are awesome, awesome, awesome! I am a recent cancer patient, (well twice before I was 30) and have lost my hair a few times. Now it’s no big deal, but I wanted to make myself into a new person after this last bout with the big C, so I contacted W.C. Design. The staff was so helpful, friendly and kind. I just can't say enough good things about these folks. They have literally transformed my life. I feel so good in my new wig. If you want to hit me up to see my new wig please PM me. I will let you run your fingers through it ( if they are clean of course). The wig is a great quality wig and will last a while if you take good care of them. Anyways, they rock, so if you have cancer or alopecia etc, etc give them a call. They will make you feel like a million bucks!

Seattle City Search Review 3/22/07
I cannot begin to express my appreciation to William Collier and his staff for the superb hair piece they designed for me. I am a male-to-female cross-dresser, (a.k.a. transvestite). I am also seeking to improve my look so that I can blend in with everyday society and not be “made”. Their hair piece is very subtle and stylish. Not only has it made my look more convincing but it has greater bolstered my confidence when I am out among the crowd. Thank you, thank you thank you!

City Search Review from Friend of Female Client 2/05
I could not believe it when I found out that a dear friend of mine had a hair replacement piece. Every time I saw her she always had a new cut and awesome color. One day she told me because I was always complimenting on her hair and I wanted to go to her place. She took me one day with her to have her cut and I had to stop starring at people who came in. I just could not believe it. William Collier of William Collier Design is a Master when it comes to hair replacement. He has an eye for design. Their hair replacement pieces are top of the line and believe me you cant tell a difference. The service was excellent. You could tell everyone felt comfortable and at ease. The atmosphere is very relaxing and they are professionals when it comes to HAIR.

Dear Rhonda,
I don’t think I can even thank you, William, and Wendy enough for all you have done for me and for all your tremendous support over the past year and a half. You have been just wonderful.
When I left the salon on Friday afternoon I thought about your comment (when you saw my hair grown back out and styled and flat ironed!) about wishing that your hair, too, would grow back. I must tell you that when I first met you and I was so scared to lose my hair and to face cancer treatment, that your unbelievable positive energy, upbeat attitude, and just overall happiness in life were, and still are, totally inspirational to me. I thought at the time, “If Rhonda can do this and be so positive; I can deal with it too.” I am certain that everyone who faces chemotherapy and hair loss must feel the same way when they meet you. You are a total inspiration!! Thank you all, again, so much!

Hi William,
Rhonda, and Wendy.
I really like
my new hair cut and hair piece. I feel very "hip!" I
immediately took to listening to Booker T and the MGs and wearing
sunglasses
after dark! Maybe the CIA needs a new agent?
William was curious what my wife's reaction was going to be. She
said "I
don't feel 52 years old and I don't want a husband who looks like
HE is!"
She loves it! I did find it a bit unnerving for the first couple
of hours
when I caught her staring at me . . . "checking me out" more
than usual. But I suppose that is the price of being young and hip! I'm
pretty sure I
will be able to deal with it.
Thank you all again.
See you in about a month.
Best regards,
T.

Hi Rhonda,
In all honesty
I wish I could help people who are in the same boat that I WAS
in. The common person has no idea how idea how simple and easy a hair system
is. They have not the foggiest idea how the whole matter works, therefore
they find idea a bit foreboding. And all of one's friends and co-workers
say "Oh don't do it . . . it will look bad and everyone will make fun
of you." Well of course none of that is true (IF of course one goes
to quality artists such as William and Wendy). But people are afraid .
. . afraid it will be very difficult . . . or afraid they will look foolish. People
ought to know "It is no big thing
. . . and people will love the way you look, and not make fun
of you."

My new hair system from William Collier Design literally changed
my life, and finally ended my constant search for a solution to my
embarrassing hair loss. Not only does the hair system look and feel
totally natural, it is comfortable and easy to maintain and style.
My confidence and self-image have been restored, making an enormous
difference in my overall happiness and well-being. Mr. Collier and
his entire staff extend exceptional, personalized service in a professional
and confidential environment. I highly recommend their services.
It could change your life too!

Dear Rhonda and William,
My self confidence
has returned! I want to thank you both. Rhonda, your tireless efforts
to get the piece to Seattle before William left on his trip was
so very much appreciated. I couldn't stand the thought of wearing
that nasty, itchy wig another day longer. It was a very attractive
wig, and people at work were amazed to discover it had been a wig
I was wearing, but it was so very uncomfortable. My new hairpiece
however, is amazingly comfortable and feels very natural. William
is lucky to have you Rhonda. The empathy you have when dealing
with your clients is pricess!! And William, I love the quality
of the piece as well as the style. My husband can't believe how
natural it looks. I've enclosed some photos of myself taken one
night before going out to dinner, as you were not there Rhonda to
see the new and improved me, thanks to William's handiwork. For the
first time in years I'm wearing a hat, not because I need to cover
up my thinning hair, but to accessorize my new "lovely locks".
"Your hair was worth every dime!!" (Note
given to F.H .
from a male co-worker.)
.As you can see by the comment [see above note], my magically transformed
self was a huge success. I received many other compliments and incredulous
looks!! Again, thank you for giving me my "self" back.
Sincerely ecstatic!!!!!!

It is good to

must also add that the 'super grip' adhesive is an excellent product
(easy to work with, flexible, non-irritating to skin, strong),

Sir or Madame:
Your Therapro® MEDlceuticals® treatment program has been a welcome find for me!
After a substantial hair loss due to medication some years ago, I had given up on any hope of hair recovery. A friend recommended your product about 2 months ago and I now am experiencing new, additional hair growth.
Thank you for your product.

Hello,
I want to tell you how much I like your Therapro® line. I do not have a hair loss problem but am in my early 50’s and the menopause years. At the recommendation of my stylist, I began using Therapro® exclusively in order to safe guard against hair loss in the future. My hair is fine and so not just any product will work for me. I have tried many over the years and most are just too " heavy " for my hair type. I love the Therapro® products as they add body, volume and shine without weighing my thin hair down.
Thanks for your superb product family.

Dear Sir or Madame:
In May of 1997 I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer: When I was told I had to have chemotherapy and would lose all my hair; I went to my beautician. She recommended the Therapro® product line. I started using the Bioclenz Shampoo, Therapeutic Scalp Response; and the Scalp Energizing Stimulator 4-6 weeks before starting my chemotherapy treatments. I continued to use them during and 3 months after my treatments and only lost 1/3 of my hair: With the type of chemotherapy I had, I should have lost it all. My doctor and nurse were amazed.
Thank you for a wonderful product.
