F.A.Q.s

Firstly, know that everyone feels some level of anxiety coming to see us.  People say we allay that anxiety almost immediately, - we hope so.

Our consultation is often like a chat between friends - sharing information, often reserved for the very best of friends.

We discuss the reason for your hairloss - what you are currently experiencing and how you are feeling as a result.  We discuss the best way forward for you in relation to the individual solution that is right for you and then we try on a variety of products.

In amongst the chat,  we often have some tears and just as often we enjoy some laughter - most of the time our clients walk out relieved and positive that at last they know that there is a solution that is right for them.

We provide an in depth, private consultation for you which generally takes around an hour.  We talk about your hairloss, your journey and explore alternative hair systems that are appropriate for your needs.

You can book a consultation through the website or by phoning.

Our consultation is currently complimentary.

The investment you make will be dependant upon the best possible solution for your individual needs.

There are many variables such as your preference for human hair or synthetic, management and maintenance ability of each type of fibre, the size and type of base in the piece and sometimes length and density of hair are factors.

Synthetic wigs and toppers typically average $700 and for human hair, the average cost of toppers is $2,500 and for wigs, $4,000.

For bonded systems we use human hair and prices depend on what is needed.

During our consultation we will discuss whether your most appropriate hairloss solution is a wig or some type of topper.

People with significant hairloss (typically those going through Chemo or Alopecia) will require a full wig whereas people with patches or thinning may require either a clip in or bonded topper.  Which type of topper depends on how much hair is remaining as well as your lifestyle.

Tammy Lobato Wigs only stock the most realistic and natural looking wigs – the wigs that Tammy would be happy to wear herself, she refuses to stock the wigs that look like wigs.

Most of Tammy’s wigs are constructed with InvisiLace which provide the most realistic appearance creating a natural hairline and scalp effect not found in other wigs.

Many wigs can be uncomfortable and unsecure, Tammy has endured many of them. Tammy’s SmartLace and Mono Top wigs are made with the highest construction methods deliberately to create comfort from the smooth and silky surface inside the cap.

The fine welded lace front will conform to the shape of your head allowing for maximum styling versatility and the most secure fit available.

The answer to this question depends upon the age and the lifestyle of the client.  Tammy Lobato is nearly 50 - for the last ten years she has been wearing human hair wigs and plans to continue. For her they are the closest thing to having her own hair - the human hair behaving like human hair.  For younger clients as well as middle aged clients who are very attached to their own hair and its quality, human hair wigs will nearly always be best for them because of the quality of the fibre.

For clients over 70 of which many choose to wear their hair fairly short, synthetic wigs are perfect.

The main issue with synthetic wigs is the deterioration of quality of fibre that leads to frizzing and matting as a result of rubbing on your clothes or car seats etc. - therefore the shorter they are, the better they are maintained.

In terms of frequency of maintenance - we recommend that human hair wigs are washed and styled (blow waved and straightened) every 3 - 4 weeks if they are worn everyday and synthetics washed every month if worn everyday - no styling required unless it is a heat resistant synthetic wig.

So therefore in contrast to some information out there, human hair maintenance is actually less than what is required for biological hair.
