I can’t recommend Lisa highly enough. Having found myself in the alien territory that a cancer diagnosis lands you in, Lisa provided me with a private, sympathetic yet honest and practical environment to experiment with ‘my new look’. The process was unexpectedly fun and positive. Without her I would never have had the confidence to attend and accept a business award mid chemotherapy.

For reasons unknown, my 84-year-old mother developed bald patches along with her already thinning hair and this was distressing her. She asked me to find out about getting a wig, but I didn’t know where to start – then I found Lisa and her Hair Room. From the very first contact and subsequent visit Lisa was understanding of mum’s dilemma. Mum is timid (due to hearing loss) but Lisa is warm and friendly and her hospitality soon put mum at ease. There was never any pressure from Lisa, who gave us plenty of time to pick styles and colours – the choice is immense – and nothing was too much trouble. Lisa’s knowledge, guidance and patience is invaluable. Lisa’s passion for helping people move on to a new fresh look just shines through in everything that she does. Mum eventually bought two wigs and she left Lisa’s wearing one and a very big smile. And importantly we both enjoyed ourselves. Thank you, Lisa!

From our first telephone call, Lisa was so understanding and fully aware of how rubbish you can feel when you are losing your hair. There is a lot to be taken into consideration and I can see how easy it would be to waste a lot of money on buying the wrong type or style of wig if you don’t have the benefit of the right advice at the outset.
As my hair grows back Lisa continues to provide me with exceptional ongoing support, advice and regular trims. She has been absolutely amazing and has exceeded my expectations at every turn during what has been a very challenging time. I can whole heartedly recommend her to anyone who may be in need of some ‘new hair’.

I was made to feel very welcome by Lisa. She gives you all the time you need to look through wig brochures and choose hair colours. The wigs arrived super quick and she even fitted me in last minute to fit my wigs so I looked nice to go away that weekend. The wig is absolutely stunning and I would definitely recommend Lisa to anyone.

You hear the word chemotherapy and all you hear is ‘I am going to lose my hair’. Lisa helped me negotiate the process in my way. 

She was supportive, empathetic and patient, even when I insisted on ordering numerous inappropriate ‘statements’ wigs (perhaps purple isn’t my colour!). I ended up feeling empowered by the process and with a wig which helped me feel like me.

As soon as I walked into Lisa’s salon with my husband, we both felt at ease... The quality of all the wigs was exceptional and after making us comfortable with a delicious latte with a shot of Baileys (another lovely touch), we preceded to try on the wigs... If you are looking to purchase a wig, I cannot recommend Lisa enough. She is so knowledgeable about the wigs and products and her advice and help with such an emotional and personal moment in your life, is second to none. Thank you with all my heart, Lisa.  I cannot begin to tell you how much confidence these wigs have given me and without you that wouldn’t have happened. I feel like a new person!

I had the pleasure of meeting Lisa at the cancer support group following my chemotherapy treatment for breast cancer in 2017. I found Lisa amazing after my treatment. Her support and understanding were greatly appreciated throughout the process. Losing my hair was very difficult for me to accept, yet Lisa made the whole wig selection experience both fun and reassuring. Now that my hair has grown back I use Lisa as my new hair stylist and would highly recommend her to my friends and family. 5 star service in 5 star surroundings!

I would highly recommend Hair Room St. Ives if you or anyone you know (god forbid) would like a wig following hair loss after chemotherapy. Lisa was amazing with my mum from the onset. She was kind, understanding but most of all, took the time my mum needed to come to terms with things. She helped her make decisions in private, which you wouldn’t necessarily get from a high street salon. Also, the personal touch and friendly approach made the whole process so much more bearable. Coming to terms with losing your hair is unimaginable and one of the hardest things to overcome when having chemotherapy. Lisa allowed mum to do things at her own pace. She ordered several wigs for my mum to try and then once she had chosen, Lisa cut and styled the wig to suit my mum. I cannot thank Lisa enough for all that she did for my mum. 5 stars from me and would highly recommend. I’m also so pleased mum continues to come to Lisa even after her treatment!

I was recommended to Lisa by the HCCN team for a consultation as I knew I would lose my hair during my treatment. Side effects of cancer treatment can be really difficult and none more so than the distress of gradually losing your hair.  Lisa fitted me in straightaway and we spent a long time looking through the huge choice that fitted my wish list.  Within 48 hours I was back in front of the salon mirror trying on the various options. Nothing was too much trouble. Lisa made really helpful suggestions; we tried the two favourites several times to make absolutely certain that the colour, fit and. style was what I wanted.  She then trimmed and styled the wig specifically to my face and I felt absolutely fantastic when I left her salon. The range of styles, colours and prices is incredible; something to suit everyone even on a restricted budget. I have absolutely no hesitation to recommend Lisa to anyone who is about to lose their hair.
