Artemis Hair Studio

I was very pleased with my garment experience.  Kitsa, the hair stylist, has a passion for helping women with hair loss due to cancer. She has helped women like me for the past 8 years. She made me feel comfortable and had tissues on hand when my mom and I needed them. Hair loss due to cancer treatment is an emotional experience and Kitsa was very supportive and comforting every step of the way.

My mom and I went to Artemis Hair Studio to get my hair cut and wig fitted.  Kitsa cut my hair first while it was in a ponytail so that I could donate it to Children with Hair Loss.  

Next, Kitsa cut my hair really short, so that the garment would fit over my head. The garment fitting went well. My garment is made from real hair and the color of my garment was perfect. When I saw my garment a few weeks ago it had a red color to it, but Kitsa gladly fixed it. She fit the garment onto my head and showed me how to place the garment on my head according to where the tape was placed. She also added layers to my garment.  Also, she styled the garment with a round brush.

Melissa and Leonard work at the front desk and very welcoming.  Melissa is very prompt in answering my emails when I have questions.  

I was having a difficult time with the garment staying on, so I made another appointment and Kimberly was more than happy to help me by adding clips to help my garment stay in place.  She also ordered a band for me that helps the garment stay in place also.

I also have pictures on my blog, anchoredinhope.blog

I discovered Artemis after watching the episode of the show "The Little People" where Jennifer Arnold chose Artemis for her wig shop.



I've been to so many of the wig shops around here and they are dirty, disorganized and didn't have the quality I was looking for.



I didn't want a wig that was going to look fake. I was looking for a wig that looked real, where I could use the curling iron, the flat iron, and even color it like I used to do with my old hair.



I got that at Artemis. No, I didn't get to take my wig home with me at my first appointment, but I'm so glad I didn't get suckered into instant gratification. (If you want a wig that's off the rack --Artemis isn't for you)



The wig I chose (garment as Kitsa likes to call it) was custom made for me out of real human hair. It fits perfectly and at times I forget I'm even wearing it. Plus nobody even believes me when I tell them I'm wearing a wig which is a huge bonus.



I might have had to pay a little more than some of the wig shops around here, but it was worth every penny and then some. I'm currently saving up for a second wig to have for special occasions.



As far as the staff goes, they have been so caring. I never feel like I ask too many questions and I feel like Kitsa and her staff really pay attention to what I want and go the extra mile. During my consultation I didn't really know what I wanted, so instead of hurrying me she asked me more questions and tried some things on me to help me figure it out. I appreciated that so much. The private consultation room was definitely a bonus too. I didn't feel uncomfortable talking about my hair loss because I didn't have to worry about other people being around to hear my personal issues.



I definitely recommend going in for a free consultation, even if you don't move forward with a wig, at least you'll leave there better educated.
