From August - October 2023, Wigs.com will show our support for hair loss organizations by advocating for and bringing awareness to the following initiatives.

Hair Loss Scholarship
The team at Wigs.com works very closely with clients who have alopecia, cancer, trichotillomania, autoimmune disorders, and diseases that cause partial or complete loss of hair. Our clients and their hair loss journeys inspire us every day and are the reason why we are so passionate about creating a community of support and education about wigs, hair care, and hair loss. One of the ways we are living out this mission is by creating a $1,000 scholarship award specifically for incoming and current college students who have experienced any form of hair loss.
