Clients Undergoing Treatment
The Hair Club receives regular inquiries each week from customers that have just been diagnosed with cancer. Generally these inquiries relate to advice on how they best prepare for the months ahead if they temporarily lose their hair due to the chemotherapy or radiotherapy hospital treatment they may receive.
The first step is to book a consultation with us. This consultation enables a designated member of our team to see your own hair's style and colour, while also having the opportunity to discuss the many options available to you.
Consultations are free of charge and generally last around one hour. Most clients generally like to visit us before they begin their treatment, as this enables them to get colour matched and choose a wig that looks and and feels just like their own hair. Another part of the consultation with clients is discussing the necessary forms that may need to be filled in for wig grants that may be available if you have a medical card or private health insurance.
We also feel it is important that we provide as much content as possible on our website. In this video are two Inspirational clients discussing their journey with their breast cancer treatment, finding the right hair piece and their anxiety about head shaving. Gigi has just finished her chemotherapy and Jane is half way through her treatment.

The Hair Club has the largest selection of human hair wigs in Ireland. All the top brand wigs are on view in our showroom, therefore clients have the opportunity to try on a full range of different shapes and sizes to suit their individual requirements.
You can choose from short bobs to medium length and then of course very long hair. Also the colours available are limitless, so we can match your own hair exactly to your chosen wig.
One of the most frequently asked questions when it comes to purchasing a real hair wig either for fashion or medical reasons is, will my wig look natural on ?
The simple answer is yes, as we stock exclusive brands that are only available in the Hair Club like the Mayfair Collection where the level of skilled craftsmanship that goes into making each individual wig is second to none. We also stock Raphael Perrier Paris, Raquel Welch and Ellen Wille.
Many of our clients when choosing a wig will generally prefer a quality real hair wig over synthetic, as human hair lasts longer and the colours look more natural, especially in the lighter blond tones.

Alopecia & Trichotillomania
The Hair Club has been specialising in providing products and services for over twenty years for clients experiencing a range of hair loss conditions.
Alopecia is considered to be a generic condition that generally runs in the family. However, alopecia can also relate to hormonal issues or stress. Many of the symptoms of this sudden hair loss are also similar to female pattern baldness like losing hair in clumps, developing bald patches and itchiness.
Generally most of our clients that have alopecia prefer a quality human hair wig over synthetic. Also some clients only have small bald patches and require custom made hair pieces over wigs to cover the affected areas.
Trichotillomania is an OCD condition that generally relates to teenagers and young adults. Also know as Trich, this condition effects around 2% of the population where people affected have an urge to pull their hair out from the root.
As we have the largest selection of wigs in Ireland, clients with Tricho can choose from our extensive range from Ellen Wille and Raquel Welch wigs.
