My Approach to Wig Consultations

A good wig consultation is more than finding you the right colour match or hair density. While I excel at both, I also take pride in helping clients feel like themselves again. I’ve built my practice around three things.

A Private Consultation

Every wig consultation takes place in a private room at Selfridges, designed for exactly this. The room is flooded with natural light, which is essential to finding the right colour match. You get the space, the time and my full attention, so you can try pieces on and ask questions at your own pace.

Honesty About Cost

My focus is on getting the best wig for you, that’s why I will always suggest the wigs that are most suitable to you, your budget and preferences,  rather than sell you the most expensive option. For some clients that’s the full bespoke wig process, and for others a ready to wear piece is the perfect match. I’ll tell you which suits you and why. If you’d like to understand the difference before we meet, you can read about how bespoke wigs are made and how to choose a ready-to-wear wig.

Understanding What You’re Going Through

Hair loss, whether from chemotherapy, alopecia or other reasons, can change how you see yourself in ways that are hard to put into words. As a trained integrative psychotherapist, I understand how personal this is, and I run every consultation with that in mind.

If you’d like some wider support, Macmillan Cancer Support is a good place to start for cancer-related hair loss, and Alopecia UK offers information and peer support for all types of alopecia.

A Different Kind of Wig Consultation

If that sounds different from the wig consultation you were expecting, you’re right, and it’s why clients keep coming back and send their friends. Come and see for yourself.

”Gary Price has saved my sanity on many occasions; he is a miracle worker in my opinion. Alopecia blighted my life and badly affected my confidence when I was younger (wish I had known Gary then!). When female pattern baldness struck again years later (during a ton of stress and peri-menopausal) it was a massive blow to my self-image, but from the minute I met Gary he helped me to accept the situation, to not worry every time I looked in the mirror and to feel as if I could cope with whatever happened next. Losing your crowning glory is very hard and it’s even harder to trust anyone to deal with this, but Gary is worth every penny. If you need a wig, he is the only medical hair specialist I would trust to make something very special. I can’t thank him enough for improving my confidence and self-esteem when I was at an all-time low and on every occasion since.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens at a wig consultation with Gary Price?

Every wig consultation is unique, and you get the full benefit of my 30+ years of experience in the industry. I’ll listen to your experience and look at pictures of your hair or the look you want. Then I’ll find the best wig for your preferences and circumstances, let you try on a few, and give you the time you need to make your decision.

Why does natural daylight matter when choosing a wig?

Artificial light can flatten, warm or cool a colour and mislead you. The consultation room is flooded with natural light, so you see the true colour of the hair before you decide.
