Just received the hair pieces. They are great. After purchasing my first one from you it actually made me a different person.  I am able to do more sporting things with myself and with my children with out always relying on my wig. 
I thank you for your great invention.

Dear Christine,
I received my order yesterday. Thank you!

I tried it on right out of the box, plopped a hat on my head and VOILA! I look just as I remember me, beautiful! What an ingenius idea! Did you come up with the design? It is so comfortable. I can't wait to get it styled. Thank you again, I can't think of anything else to say except, thank you, thank you, thank you!

Best regards

I am a recently diagnosed breast cancer patient. My chemotherapy treatments will be starting very soon and the hair loss is more than likely a reality. No matter what anyone says, that is difficult to face. 

I received my ponytail wig yesterday, the very afternoon of my morning surgery (successful).  I didn't open it immediately, I guess it represented too much reality. But this morning, I woke up feeling better and opened my box.  Alone in my bedroom I  tried it on and loved it!  It makes such a difference to know that I will be able to still go out and be considered a normal person. Bless you for giving me a way of expressing my cancer with dignity.
 
Sincerely, A.M.

Just wondering how my hair was doing...  I am now wearing my Scarf-fabulous and I love it!  I has really changed how I'm feeling about things and I'm anxious to get my underhair and start experimenting with hats and scarves of my own.  Thank you so much for making such an amazing product...  the hair resembles my own so closely and it's so comfortable to wear--a great great idea! Speak to you soon--

Dear Christine:

Thank you so much for the fabulous Hip-Hat. My daughter Ashley was diagnosed with Rhabdomayo Sarcoma 18 months ago. We were all very much in shock and quite scared. We were scared about so many things, but for Ansley losing her hair was the worst. Having the coolest, longest hair (hip-hair) in her class made it a lot more bearable. Ashley has worn her hip-hair with all of her hats every place she goes, and has become the unofficial hip-hat model for the Mary-Bridge Oncology clinic in Tacoma, WA.

We have been able to style the hair in so many ways. Her favorite way to wear it is with teeny-tiny braids and a “do-rag” — very hip! Ashley has grown so accustomed to wearing and being a kid in her hip-hat that she decided to get a hair cut. We took it to our family stylist and she gave it some highlights and trimmed off several inches. Now Ansley has a whole new look!

We are happy to report that Ashley’s treatment is over and she is doing quite well, but she continues to were her hip-hat and will until her hair grows back. Thank you so much for minimizing the self-consciousness and loss of femininity that Ashley was experiencing in such a kid-friendly way. We are very grateful that you have this great talent and are willing to share it with such sick children.

Sincerely,
C.M.

Dear Christine,
I am a huge fan and recommend your product to everyone who asks… I have alopecia universalis, and usually just wear bandanas around town, so it is no secret that I have no hair… when I do wear your underhair people always comment on how fabulous it looks!  And then I get the unfortunate calls from people “who know people” going thru chemo and the like…

Anyway, I am so grateful for your product, it lets me throw on a baseball cap and feel good about myself.

...I love wearing this hair and I kind of think that my 10 year old daughter is a bit jealous (her hair is long enough that she can almost sit on it).  It makes me feel pretty when I wear it.  I will enjoy it more once the temps drop this fall but I still wear it to church now on Sunday.  When I first put it on, I did cartwheels across the room (not really but I would have if I could).  To sum it up.....I LOVE IT!!!   I'm going to experiment with it and see if I can wear it in a long braid.  No biggie if I can't.  The color match is perfect.....my own hair in the back has grown out about 3 inches and it blends in just fine with the underhair.  Since I'm 44, I was afraid that people would think that I was too old to wear something like this and maybe I am but too bad!  I've had ugly hair most of my life but not now.  I look GOOD!  Th! anks for writing!--Elizabeth :^)

We received the Sydney Swim Cap yesterday...it is beautiful! Sydney just LOVES it! She is so proud of it. We are going to the bech over the weekend and test it's durability in the wter. I'll take some pics and let you know. Have an amazing day. Thanks again for making a product that will be so comfortable to wear when swimming. -Amy & Sydney

.....My swim cap wig was awesome while I wore it. Many compliments on it from people who didn't know I had even lost my hair. 

FYI, I liked your product so much I put your link on our on-line support group's database (Yahoo Breast Cancer Survivor's group). 

Thanks again,

Jennifer

Hi, i only got to use it once this summer...at the pool on a steamy day with my 12 year old son....I loved it because I went unnoticed by the throngs of kids, and did my routine....swam laps, breast stroke, cooled off, lounged by the pool....and my lovely scarfabulous made it all possible! I have alopecia universalis as of this year....so it was a relief! Thanks for your product...

 

Hi Christine,

Thanks for checking in on me.  I really am glad to have my PonyMode.  It makes it real easy for those times that I am casual and want to look nice.  I appreciate having it.

Thanks for taking the time to email me.....I just love my scarf...I look so normal in a matter of minutes....I pull it on and go.....everyone that sees me in my scarf say I look so much younger...I will be ordering another one soon in another color scarf....but the hair color looks just the way my old hair did....

I just recently donated my hair to my little cousin who has cancer. They sent it to you guys and got a hat made out of it. I thought this was the coolest idea ever. My little cousin loves it...and I love the fact that she now can always have a piece of me with her. Thanks for your awesome gift!

Hi Christine,

It is always a pleasure to talk to you and also to do business with you! I think you are a very special person to come up with this unique idea of hairpeices.

God bless you and your family and your business.

Love, N.P.

Dear Christine,
I had a very large brain tumor removed last year. Five surgeries later, I have a hole on my head and a big bald spot. It's very permanent and very sensitive.

I have fifty bandanas. But it's depressing to get dressed up, get my make-up on perfect and have to stick a bandana on. I have spent a year searching for a wig, hat, scarf, headwrap, turban, or hairpiece that would have everything I need. I tried a human hair wig (too hot and itchy), two synthetic wigs (too fake), a hairpeice for under scarves (looks good but little elastic bands shift and hurt.) I have been sewing hats all year and was thinking how I could sew the hairpeice on a cap to look right. Then I found your Underhair! I was amazed. Here it was--someone got it right. I would have ordered it that day but it took a while to get the money together (medical bills, bills, bills,) I received my Underhair today and I love it. It is everything I need. I would like to thank you for taking the time to make your hats and make them just right. Thanks.

hey christine,

i actually took this to send to a friend of mine, to show her how happy i was with my new pink hair...and then i remembered, i promised you a photo too...so, here ya go!  it is very, very cute in person...you got
the color just right.  thank you so much for taking the time with it, and for so patiently dealing with all the back-and-forth in getting it shipped up to me!

do you think you could do blue one day?  when i am feeling flush that might be the color i order next.  : )

take care, dana

me in my hip hair, wearing a very caffeinated expression. (that's underhair with the front in small braids & the scarf is mine). yay!

Hi Christine:

Wanted to update you regarding my underhair. I am still loving it. It worked great in Hawaii. The material that you use on the top of the underhair is so comfortable and breathable. Quite amazing. Also, I had occasion to be in Alaska recently and needed warm coverage on my head due to the rain and wind. I wore my underhair and a hat with a drawstring and while catching a 25' (ha, I mean 25") coho salmon. (fish joke) I never had a doubt that my hair would fly off, nor would I have to go fishing for my hat. Thanks for being so insightful with your design.

Thanks again.

Good Afternoon,

I am a new resident to Florida but have known about your company for a few years as my daughter has Alopecia Areata Universalis.  She swears by your product.  She is a producer for the Discovery Channel, and therefore must look her best at all times.  As they are aware of her condition, they work with her during the summer months when her wig itches her to death and your hip hats have made her so much more comfortable......
 
Very truly yours,

Dear Christine,
I received an e-mail from Gwen concerning an article she is writing on Hip Hats. Bravo! I can't believe how quickly we received our order or how big Catie's smile has been since. I hope to send you a pic soon. I told Gwen she could use my quotes in any way it would help. I also told her I would like to see a Hip Hat available to any child with Alopecia in much the same way they are available to young girls undergoing chemo. I wish they had been available when my mother had Cancer. She would have loved them too. I am contacting the NAAF for suggestions, if you have any ideas could you let me know? Again, God bless you for being so talented and creative. You've put joy back in a lot of young ladies hearts.

Sincerely, P.W.

Dear Christine

We received your shipment today (1/20/2000). And, I must say I was very impressed. The hair is gorgeous! The natural color of the hair is brilliant! My client just loves her silky straight Hip Hat. Even thou, she is not stricken with any cancer she has found a fun way in expressing herself with your Hip Hats. Whatever the reason, it definitely gave her a boost. Is it possible to have another hat made in light denim material of that style that we ordered, maybe in a stretch fabric? Please let me know.

Thank-you, I hope we can do business together in the future. Stay with the quality and keep up the good work.

Sincerely,

Heidi, from Heidi's Hair and Nail Salon Studio, Fort Shaw, MT

Dear Hip Hat

My daughter has a wig and a Hip Hat. She wears that Hip Hat everywhere she goes. She will not even put the wig on. She wears her Hip Hair with a bandana because she really doesn't like hats, but she looks adorable. Some of our best friends couldn't even tell that it wasn't her real hair. I just want you to know she will wear this bandana and Hip Hair to bed and sleep in it all night and get up in the morning and look just the same. I wish I could do that! This Hip Hat is the greatest thing to come along especially for teenage girls. Your the greatest! Thank-you so very much!

Dearest Christine,

We want to thank-you for Jenny's Hip Hat & Hair. She loves it and she looks beautiful. Thank-you for sending the second hair. It fits her wonderfully. She looks and feels like a princess. No one knows it's not her hair. We appreciate your help and your patience.

Sincerely, E.K.


Dear Christine,

...I also received the Hip Hat and hair for Natalie E. a couple of days ago and took it over to the Ronald McDonald House for her. I wish I could have had a video to record her expression. She was so excited and so was her mother. It looks beautiful on her. The quality of your products are simple wonderful...

With much appreciation,
