Sophie Hafner is an amazing and talented wig stylist based in Los Angeles, CA. For the last 5 years she has been the only person I entrust with coloring and cutting my wigs. Meeting her transformed my wig wearing, and took it to a whole new level I didn’t know possible. Her passion and calling has always been in helping women with hair loss discover the hair that works best for their specific needs and individual stages of hair loss. She accomplishes this by customizing the very highest quality pieces to be unique, personal and most importantly natural to every woman she works with. 

I’m excited to have her share her wig knowledge with everyone seeking to learn more about hair wearing. In part 1 of this 2 part episode, we discuss the consultation process as well as the technical aspects of wigs, including:

-Wigs vs. Toppers

-Adjusting to Wearing Hair by Learning To Treat It Like Your Own Hair

-Lace Front vs Closed Front (How to Choose) 

-The Follea Gripper - What Type of Hair Loss Is Best Suited For This Wig?
