Supercansada is now, quite rightly, suspended. Thanks Admins/Mods.

phew...what a crying shame. I have all the trust in you Jaye, after all the research you have done and been willing to share it with us. It is very sad that these things happen but I have had a very bad wig experience as well and I do believe that it is good for other people to know, for at least one reason:We will stay more alert and not 'swallow' all the "gold and green forests"that we are promised by wig suppliers. As mentioned before , there are too many ill willed people out there trying to take advantage of us wig users and for us it is not just about the money. Thank you for sharing it with us and I am sure that some of us have awoided making a big mistake thanks to you Jaye! Sorry for the experince and the costs. It is a crying shame...

Pedro says he is making me a new wig (for free) and will post to me as soon as he can. He has also offered to refund my money if I'm not happy with the second wig. Hats off to him for trying to make amends - but what an ordeal to go through to get to this stage. I'll report back as and when No.2 is received.

Jaye
thank you for sharing in makes me sick how much we are conned. I personally believe that anyone who wears a wig through Alopecia should qualify for a quality bespoke wig of their choice then we wouldn't be in this position.
The only thing I can say is once its styled may look a lot better.
All the best
Shirley

Hi Jaye
Sorry about your bad experience. A good wig can make or break your self esteem when you step out the door.
I am like you, very particular about the hair quality. When I read how much cheaper these particular wigs were I was kicking myself because I thought I had overspent on mine.
I left mine with the hairdresser to have it styled for a do I was going to and she reported back that it was the best quality she had come across in her many years of cutting and styling hairpieces. I feel much more relaxed now about my own puchase now and will stay with my own supplier.
I hope you manage to get something sorted out and thanks for posting

hi jaye am sorry to hear you sound so down! i wish i could help, i wanted to thank you for the message you wrote me a wile ago i would of wrote back sooner only havent been on :(
you really helped me and i took your advise, at first i wasnt sure about wearing the half wig attached to the clip for the crown of ur head, i tried it anyway and looked really great :) i wore it to the mass at the wedding and felt really paranoid that it was noticeable.
at the reception i wanted to take it off util my auntie said my hair looked great curly and that i should bring my rollers on holidays with them lol then i realised it actualy looked like my normal hair and it made me feel so great about myself, got my confidence back and really enjoyed myself now any time there is a special occasion i will wear it again. :)
i am really greatful of u written to me i hope i can give u some advise the next time u need it.
thanks so much speak soon danielle x

Danielle - Thanks for your kind words and well done you, for taking the step and trying out a topper.  I'm so glad you found one that suits you. Wearing anything new on your head takes some getting used to, but the first outing is always scary, for fear of people realising. But you know what, so many celebs wear supplemental hair, that if anyone ever does ask if you have a hairpiece on, just be ready with a big grin and a "Yes, it looks great, doesn't it?!" The only other thing I'd say, is why keep the hairpiece just for special occasions? If it gives you so much confidence, wear it more often!  Latest news on my Pedro, is he's not sending a new one now (another long story!  ) but I should be getting a refund next week. Jaye
