For more information or a free consumer guide call us at 905-821-1092 o women, hair is the ultimate symbol of femininity. The hair portrays a woman's personality and feelings. The loss of hair and the purchase of a wig are often the most diffi cult part of dealing with cancer, sometimes even more traumat ic than the initial diagnosis. One of the most difficult time I had as a caregiver was finding a boutique that not only specialized in wigs as their main serv ice, but finding the personnel that understood how we felt. My mother was not comfortable to try on wigs in the middle of a busy department store or in a busy open salon area. A few years later, re-experiencing the same difficulty with another family member, I decided to offer products and service and the opportunity to help women with hair loss. And that is when Truly You Wigs and Hair Replacement Boutique opened. O ur shop, located in a tranquil setting of Streetsville (Mississauga), is tastefully decorated and offers complete private rooms for comfort and privacy. Myself (Amalia) and Lisa offer individual attention to our clients and are specialized in wigs and have experience in dealing with women with cancer or unexplainable hair loss. We supply over 400 wigs in our shop in synthetics, blends and human hair. We w ill style the wigs, make sure the wig fits properly, and we w ill also cut the clients hair once it starts falling at no extra charge. Our clients are welcome to return for minor adjustments during their wig wearing time at no cost. To make our clients shopping easier, we offer a selection of turbans, scarves, hats, mastectomy swimwear, Sunveil Sunwear Clothing and camouflage makeup. By listening to our customer's needs for the past eight years, we believe that we have achieved the service, products and attention our clients wished for during their trying time. In addition to our other services, we offer those women with reduced mobility, home or hospital visits. Should you have any questions about our wigs or related apparel for yourself or some one you know, please feel free to call us at 905-821-1092 and allow us to be of service to you.
