- I was excitedly nervous when I made my first appointment with Leigh. I needn’t have worried because from by the moment I first spoke with her, she has been respectful, kind, patiently listening to my questions and providing me with information and reassurance. My wife and I highly recommend her to anyone considering having a full head of hair. She provides great follow up and support. My life has changed with my new hair and Leigh has been extremely instrumental in this. I am forever grateful to her.
Bob, Wellingtonread moreread lessBob, WellingtonLeigh, from Image Works in Wellington, has looked after myself for a number of years, due to my thinning hair. Her professional, yet relaxed, manner and expertise has seen me walk out her door feeling confident and beautiful. Leigh always makes sure the style and colour enhances the look you are after, while making you feel totally comfortable.read moreread lessGael, Lower HuttMany thanks to you for your expertise and advice! Well to my TOTAL amazement not one of the twelve women in my group guessed it was a wig. They all commented on how lovely my hair looked today and asked if I had been to a salon! I didn't let on until we finished up that it was a wig. They said it was very natural looking and pretty. I'm very happy with the result.read moreread lessJudy, Auckland - "All services I received from Wigs by Haircreations in Gisborne were very good."read moreread lessR. Elliot, GisborneI was told I WOULD lose my hair as a result of chemotherapy. It became very important to me to ensure that I had a wig that enabled me to function as normally as possible outside the myriad of medical appointments and hospital visits that started to fill my days.
What I expected to be one of the more confrontational realities I would have to face as part of my cancer experience, was actually a really relaxed and enjoyable experience. I booked in for a wig consultation with Leigh and, right from the moment she answered the door and let me into her studio, I was made to feel welcome and relaxed. I had an extremely informative session with her and then tried on a few wigs. The process of narrowing the choices down was made so much easier with Leigh’s wig expert advice and I left very happy with the wig I choseread moreread lessCaroline, WellingtonLeigh Renai of Image Works, our Wigs by Haircreations agent in Wellington, was presented a bouquet from Prime Minister John Key and Mrs Bronagh Key, for the outstanding volunteer work that Leigh does for the Look Good Feel Better (LGFB) organisation as a LGFB instructor.
Tessa: "Just wanted to say hi and thanks for your help in September with my wig and the fantastic make up session. I'm a month post-surgery and about to start radiation therapy... all is progressing really well.
I now have enough knowledge, first hand experience and wise friends that I'm much calmer about the whole process - and the progress to a good outcome.
But the thing is, apart from the medical staff, you were the first person I met in what was a brand new BC universe that I did not know how to navigate. Your friendliness and efficiency were very much appreciated by me at such an early and uninformed stage of the game. It's also been a bit of an eye opener for me about how much better I have felt being able to use and wear the make up I received. In PNG, I never wore much make up ever but over here it became a welcome bit of the armoury to help me feel more confident about dealing with "everything". Thank you so very much for that.
And as much as I (and my sister) love my wig I am at the point where i just need a few more millimetres and then I dont have to wear it. I mean no disrespect to that lovely wig but there is gorgeous sunny weather out there and I just want to feel the sunshine and breeze on my scalp again.
Oh and guess what, my hair is growing in straight!!!! Honest. I quite like it.
Anyway, I hope you and yours have a wonderful Christmas and thanks again for helping me with my first few steps.
cheersread moreread lessTessa - Wellington - Just wanted to say my United arrived today, and wow! She is absolutely perfect! Clearly it was meant to be that I get this one - it is exactly what I was after! Beautiful length, the lace is lovely, the fit is just right, the colour is beautiful… I am so happy with her! Thank you so much for your help and with getting her in for me. This has sold me on Ellen Wille now, I hope to buy more in the future!
Thanks again for all your help, it is greatly appreciated!read moreread lessKat, AucklandJust to let you know how happy I am & how well I am adapting to my “new look”.
I love wearing my wigs & how it makes me feel. My family & friends have been so supportive.
I made an appointment with Ann(name changed) & found her amazing. Thank you for that. She has cut & styled them to my liking. Of course I have sometimes doubted myself & thought “people will know” but on the whole I have been OK.
A man came up to me at Pak’nSave car park & said that his wife got him to ask me “where I got my hair cut”!
She wanted a style just like mine!!!
Thank you again for everything. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas with your family.
Kind regardsread moreread lessPenny, Wellington"The entire service from the team at Wigs by Haircreations has been amazing. I was dreading losing my hair more than chemotherapy treatment, and the experience as wonderful. My hair consultant was so professional, kind and caring. I really enjoyed finding the perfect wig that my husband and children were happy with. It was a really positive feeling. I left happy and absolutely impressed with the help I had received. I cannot thank you enough."read moreread lessJenny D, Auckland - I don't think you realise how much you did for Mary (and myself) yesterday. She walked out a totally different woman and she even came into the supermarket with me with her new "hair". It looks lovely and it has obviously made a huge difference; her whole demeanour changed. It was magic the way you explained the chemo being a drug of wellness etc and that the hair meant old cells saying farewell and making room for new ones. Most empowering just knowing that.
Your aroha, care and graciousness is very much appreciated.
Our warmest.read moreread lessMary and Sister, WellingtonI went to Wigs by Haircreations and selected my wig before my first chemotherapy and then returned to get my head shaved and the wig fitted a few weeks later. I found the staff at Wigs by Haircreations really listened to what I wanted and I am very happy with the wig I have chosen. I have found the staff very encouraging and helpful and would recommend Wigs by Haircreations to anyone needing a wig.
I get lots of positive comments from people who think I've had highlights through my hair.read moreread lessPat Graham, TeacherThanks so much for your help and expertise with my new wig.

From my initial contact, through to the consultation itself, Colleen has been outstanding. Her professionalism, product knowledge and expertise was remarkable. As a result, Colleen has turned our really difficult time for my Mum and her whānau, into a stress-free, pleasant and empowering moment. Colleen accurately selected the colours and hair styles most appropriate for Mum, and it has made all the difference!
