Megan Purdy - Hairdresser and Wig Specialist
I'm a wife, mum of 3, a lover of coffee and all things creative and beautiful.
Early in my life I knew that hairdressing and making people feel good about themselves was to be my career path.
With over 35 years in the hairdressing industry the progression in my career now leads me to provide a compassionate and caring service to my clients. Finding the perfect wig to make you feel confident and fabulous.
After supporting a friend during her cancer treatment I understood how important a wig can be to make you feel "as normal as possible" during a difficult time.
What to expect when you visit "The Wig Place"
During a private consultation I offer a no obligation service to guide you in choosing a wig that is tailored especially for you. I explain about the different types of wigs available and we then decide which wig will be best for you. With over 50 wigs in the salon, there are many to choose from. Once we have chosen a style we then choose the best colour.
If the wig you choose is not in stock it will need to be ordered.
At this stage you are asked to pay a $100 deposit.
(Please allow approx 7 days for arrival).
At the final fitting I will trim and style your wig and show you how to best maintain and care for it. You'll be amazed how easy it will be.
You’re not alone... I offer continued service and support throughout your journey and the life of your wig.

Synthetic wigs
Synthetic wigs are great wigs to wear for everyday use - they are more durable and are more natural-looking than ever before.
These wigs are much cheaper than human hair wigs. They are recommended for women with all sorts hair loss due to chemotherapy, alopecia, thinning or damaged hair.
They are lightweight, cool and have adjustable straps to make the cap larger or smaller.
Synthetic wigs offer the ability of carefree styles, that when wet, will always bounce back to their original style once dry.
Many wigs have natural lace fronts and monofilament scalps allowing versatility and ability to change the part.
Synthetics must be treated properly with specialised products made to enhance the quality and longevity of the wig.
It all sounds confusing but once I've explained it, it will all make sense.
