- Just a quick note to tell you how "wonderful" my husband Steve and I think Simone from Wigs by Haircreations was to us (Auckland). I have seen numerous people over the past few months regarding my hair loss (long story)... but no one else came close to the empathy that Simone showed me.
She has got to be one of the kindest....most caring and professional person I have "ever" met.
There are not enough words to say...from both Steve and I on how we are so impressed with her.read moreread lessJean & Steve - AucklandMy wig is perfect.

You are a gem!read moreread lessShirley - Auckland"At a time when there is such a lot of stress and anxiety in a cancer victim's life, it was a pleasure to experience such a welcoming and friendly service provided by Wigs by Haircreations in Newton, Auckland. There was no fuss, just straight-forward information regarding the products available. The selection of wigs and headwear was excellent. Choosing the correct wig is a big decision. The assistance and information provided was clear, helpful and honest. This was so helpful making a decision over something that you wouldn't dream you had to go through. To be able to go home wearing the wig as an added bonus. Well done Wigs by Haircreations. "read moreread lessHelen O., AucklandOur appointment with Leigh in Wellington was superb. She was very welcoming, hospitable, caring and humorous, as well as having beautiful compassion and understanding. The whole appointment was filled with so many emotions and thanks to Leigh, my friend left with renewed confidence. The wigs are amazing – so natural and flattering – we all have hair envy!
Cheersread moreread lessMegan, 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, AucklandI just wanted to say a huge thank you for Tuesday. I was at a really low point when I came to see you that day, and when I left – well I felt closer to the old me than I ever have in the past month! You were so caring, understanding and genuine you made, have made the whole process so much more bearable. I also really appreciated you getting on the phone to my Dr and organising the medical grant too, you just make the process that much easier and for that I am so grateful.
I’m really enjoying playing with my wig – I haven’t thought of a name for her yet! Maybe Gerty!!
I went to see Trish, my hairdresser and she too was amazing – was so nice to talk to someone who’s been through it and come out the other side. She styled my hairpiece for me, and showed me way’s to wear it up and down and well, the whole process has helped me find confidence again and for once actually focus on something other than hair loss! You two are an amazing team.
I’m still losing my hair but now like you say, I have options if that does happen, and it will be another lovely visit to you and Trish if that does happen. But for now I’m enjoying the moment and loving being able to do some of the old things I used to do – and not feel self-conscience.
I even trialled the hairpiece at a workout at the gym today, and it all held together beautifully. In fact I think the hairpiece is actually nicer than my original hair! Thanks again Leigh, you have really made a difference.read moreread lessAnn, WellingtonJust 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 - This is just a quick message of sincere thanks to you all, and in particular Simone for making my appointment this morning so successful. I can't believe within an hour I was walking out with a beautiful new hairpiece! I haven't been able to drag myself away from the mirror this afternoon to have another look - the complete opposite of how I've been over the last few years. Simone, your rapport with your clients is a credit to you, thank you for making it all so easy.
Kindest regards.
P.S. Thank you also for the care pack - I look forward to using it.read moreread lessSandra, Auckland"The biggest challenge for a woman is losing her hair.

- 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, Wellington"Here is what I wrote to our friends and rellies …
Yesterday Mary got her wig and looks amazing Mary again. I can't describe how heart breaking it was at first (for us both - me watching her) as we sat in silence with the reality and was able to just be, albeit painful. The tears came as she removed her woollen hat in the mirror as she looked at a person she no longer recognised. I feel so privileged to be on such a personal journey with her. I know it's just hair and, yes, it will grow back but when it comes to the crunch for both males and females who lose their hair through illness, is it is indeed a loss and another thing to put up with. It was magic watching her demeanour change once the wig was on and cut similar to how she usually wears her hair. It was just the best ever to see Mary walking out a totally different lady and even went into New World with me to get a couple of items. The difference in her is very noticeable. When I visited her yesterday, I even felt the difference seeing her sitting in the lounge with her hair piece looking ‘normal’. To go into chemotherapy on Friday with her wig will make a huge difference. Leigh the lovely “wig lady” was the perfect person to see and talked to us about chemo actually being a drug of well health as it regenerates cells very, very fast. Hair loss is the old cells all clearing out reading for the body to create new cells. That’s why the hair grows back lovely and the skin is plumpy. It gave us both a different understanding of chemotherapy which got Mary through the tears and the fear. The human body is an amazing machine. Hell this woman is going to look younger than me soon! Needless to say the Wellington wind may cause us a few problems in regard to the wig, so have to learn some tricks J I’m not going to call it a wig, but will refer to it as her hair. Her comment to me was “I’ve never been bald in all of my life – I was born with a full head of hair!
