About

While a massive emphasis is placed on beating cancer, feeling confident is an important part of cancer care and treatment.  Hair loss can affect a person’s mental health - elevating stress and anxiety and reducing quality of life.  There are many cancer survivors who wear the bald with pride and poise.  Bald is beautiful, of course it is. But for some of us, we don’t feel beautiful as bald. And that voice needs to be in the conversation too.

South African enterprise Tymeless Hair & Wigs is proud to announce the launch of their new website specifically dedicated to helping cancer survivors harness their inner power and find a way to fall back in love with themselves. Extremely passionate about assisting sufferers of hair loss due to cancer, radiation, chemotherapy, or other illnesses like alopecia, Tymeless Hair & Wigs is offering survivors hair-wear options they never dreamed possible.

The website features an array of clip-in extensions, weft wigs, keratin and glue tip extensions, closures, (used on the crown or on the sides to create volume with the most natural looking scalp), toppers and lace wigs in Indian Remy Hair - delivered straight to your door - nationwide.

“Although our cancer clients need different services, their underlying needs are much the same: to be treated with respect and dignity; to feel good about their appearance; and to be pampered now and then,” says Tymeless Hair & Wigs Chief Executive Officer and Founder, Rani Chetty.

“We are able to cater to all requirements based on market demand - be it male or female clients. We offer a personalised service, guiding clients through every step of the process of choosing which hair-piece product best suits their needs and their lifestyle. Our versatile and durable styles and products are aimed at creating a variety of looks. We also offer private consultations, professional service and experienced technical advice.”

While losing one’s hair may be frightening, many women enjoy trying styles and colours in a wig that they would never have dared to try with their own hair. Wigs always look good – even when you feeling low. With our sunny climate, it’s simply not practical for cancer survivors to wear hats or scarves all season long. When choosing a wig or hair-piece, comfort and subtle beauty are two characteristics that cancer patients truly appreciate.

As a conscious-driven company, Tymeless Hair & Wigs ensures all products are sustainably sourced and ethically manufactured goods. Mainly from Chennai, Tymeless Hair & Wigs get their supply of beautiful virgin Indian hair from the temples where tonsuring is a traditional practice. In South India it is a traditional practice for women of the Hindu faith to sacrifice their beautiful long hair in return for the prayers that have been answered. The temple authorities collect all the hair and periodically auction it to the various bidders. The proceeds from the auctions are spent in various charitable forms by the temple authorities. Indian Remy Hair comes in a variety of textures (straight, silly, wavy and curly), which gives the best possible styling and installation options for added hair solutions.

“Indian Remy Hair by virtue of its length, softness quality and texture win the market a great demand. For cancer survivors, it is a very obvious choice. Compared with Brazilian Remy Hair, Indian Remy Hair is finer, not only is it naturally airy, bouncy and light but can also be styled and curled very easily. In addition, its integration is better than Brazilian Remy Hair, because of its characteristics of fine density,” explains Rani.

The company has recently developed several hair pieces designed to be fitted and worn without clips, combs or messy glues. This is a godsend for any wig wearer, especially to cancer patients or those suffering from alopecia. Tymeless Hair & Wigs also boasts another first: the introduction of pre-cut/pre-styled (ready-to-wear) wigs to the public, eliminating the guesswork of how the wig will fit and also saving consumer a great deal of time. To eliminate the worry of your wig or hairpiece shifting, Tymeless Hair & Wigs is also proud to announce their ‘stay put’ products, which remain comfortably on your head for up to six weeks, while your own roots are treated with strengthening serums.  During this period the hair can be washed and styled as if it’s their own hair. After six weeks, it’s reconditioned (cleaned and serviced) in our salons, the patients scalp is re-treated, and the wig is stuck back on. The new collection also boasts several SmartLace designs you're sure to love! You can view the full collection on http://tymelesshair-wigs.co.za.
