Elise helped me pick out a hair piece for help with alopecia - she was very personable and we went outside twice to get a better look at swatches compared to my hair color in a natural light. Once my piece arrived, she trimmed it for me, gave me lots of advice, and then I took it to my own salon of many years and they put a rinse on it to match the color even better, said it didn't require any further trimming, and that it was one of the best pieces they'd seen. It looks very natural, is quite comfortable to wear and blends in with my hair well. Very grateful for the reasonable price and the assistance I got in making a purchase.

We're so happy that we found this place. On the day that my daughter was diagnosed with cancer (and learned that she would be needing chemotherapy that would cause her to lose her hair), we stopped in this shop because it was near her doctor's office and we'd read some good reviews. Although we did not have an appointment, the owner of the shop, Andrew, met with use and showed us the types of wigs that were available. He tried a few on her, which helped her to fell a bit better about how she would look after losing her hair.

Working with Alex, my naturally brunette daughter picked out a blonde wig (because, if you have to go through chemotherapy, you might as well be blonde when doing it!). Alex then added some darker roots to the wig to make it look more natural. The end result is fantastic--you would never know that she's wearing a wig. She get compliments all the time.

We also had Nicole at the shop make a halo wig out of my daughter's own hair. After my daughter's first chemo treatment but before she started losing her hair, Alex cut her hair very short into a cute pixie, preserving her own hair for the halo wig. Nicole made the halo wig, which gives my daughter the option of wearing her own hair under a baseball cap or other hat. It should give her a chance to feel more like herself during this difficult time.

Thanks to all involved at the Hair Place! We had a great experience and, although it's certainly not inexpensive, we would definitely recommend it to others.

Over a year ago I was diagnosed with Lichen Planopilaris, a rare type of scarring alopecia. About half of my hair has already fallen out and eventually I will lose all of it. Like other women struggling with hair loss, I was devastated. My self esteem was low, was constantly trying to rearrange my hair trying to hide the bald spots. Grew so tired of peoples eyes going straight to my scalp when face to face with them.

I’ve never worn a wig before so I started searching the internet. Thats how I found HairPlace NYC. They had rave reviews and the more I read, the more I felt this was the place that could help me! I made an appointment for a wig consultation. At my appointment I met with Suzie. She is amazing! I immediately felt comfortable with her and enjoyed my first wig experience. Suzie took her time with me. No rushing at all. She showed me many wigs, put them on me and educated me on the differences in each type. I was pleasantly surprised with the whole experience. I chose a human hair wig that day and picked it up 2 weeks later. And OMG I was in love with this wig.. My wig, in the perfect matching color, made just for me! Suzie trimmed the lace and cut baby hairs on it for me. It was gorgeous. I put it on and felt like myself again. I felt pretty again!

I highly recommend HairPlace NYC. Their welcoming staff are professional and friendly. And I highly recommend seeing Suzie. She’s absolutely wonderful. Thanks again Suzie!
