Human Hair Wigs for Children Facing Hair Loss

Book a $50 virtual consultation

Closer than you think

Some families travel a long way to find someone who understands children's hair loss. With video fittings, that help can come to your home. The child sitting next to yours in class could be wearing a human hair wig, and no one would know. That is what we aim for.

We have seen it all

Whatever the cause, chemo, alopecia or trichotillomania, every child's wig is handmade in our Los Angeles shop with the same care as our finest adult pieces. The wig you order is the same one worn daily as a sheitel by women who know wigs best. Tallie's shop began in her own community.

When your child is losing their hair

Hair loss is hard at any age, but for a child it can change how they feel walking into a classroom. We fit children whose hair loss comes from chemotherapy, from alopecia areata or universalis, and from trichotillomania. Each one needs a different conversation, and every one of them deserves a wig that lets them stop thinking about their hair.

Tallie is a mother of seven. She fits children with the same patience she has at home, and she lets the child lead.

Alopecia

Alopecia can come and go, or it can be complete. For a child with patchy loss, a human hair topper sometimes covers what is needed. For total loss, a full human hair wig with a secure, comfortable fit is usually the answer. Read more on our alopecia wigs page.

Trichotillomania

For children who pull, a wig can be more than coverage. It can protect the hair growing underneath, which gives that hair a chance to recover. We talk with parents about cap choices that are hard to pull at and comfortable to wear all day. We also keep the conversation gentle, because many children feel embarrassed. Our article on trichotillomania and wigs has more.

Chemotherapy

If your child is about to start treatment, the best time to talk to us is before their hair begins to fall. We can match their color and texture from their own hair while it is still there. Their scalp may be tender during treatment, so we use soft, breathable caps. Some children prefer a wig for school and a soft hat at home, and both are fine.

Pricing and timing

Children's wigs are built from the same human hair as our adult pieces. Our Luxury Human Hair Wigs start at $3,000, and Virgin Human Hair Wigs start at $6,500. Most families choose the Luxury line for a child. We build in 1 to 5 business days. Families outside Los Angeles can start with a $50 virtual consultation.

How a child's fitting is different

We go at their pace

Nobody is rushed. Younger children often want to hold the wig, brush it, and see it on a parent's hand before it goes near their head. That is fine. The fitting is finished when your child is comfortable, not when the clock says so.

Privacy first

Our shop has a private entrance and offers after-hours appointments, so your child never has to sit in a room full of strangers. For families outside Los Angeles, we do the whole consultation by video, and your child can stay on the couch at home.

A fit made for play

Children run, climb, nap and wear helmets. We choose lighter caps, secure grip bands or clips, and lengths that are easy to manage. A child's head also grows, so we plan for adjustments.

Frequently asked questions

What age do you fit?

We work with every age, from toddlers and young children right through the teenage years. Tell us your child's age and needs, and we design the fit, weight and length around them.

Can my child come in after school hours?

Yes. We offer appointments by arrangement, including after hours, through a private entrance.

Will the wig stay on during sports?

We fit active children with grip bands, clips or a snug cap so the wig stays secure. For contact sports or swimming, we usually suggest a sports cap and talk through options.

Can we do this remotely?

Yes. We do the consultation by video, guide you through measuring your child's head, and ship the wig. US families can try it at home before we finish it.

Should we buy before chemo starts?

If possible, yes. Matching your child's natural color and texture is easier while their hair is still there.
