Best Thing To Happen For
Linda
Posted on 10/28/2009
Linda suffers from Tardive
Dykensia which has required her
to take prescriptions to slow
down her involuntary movements.
Problem is that it has slowed
her done from head to toe. For
over 18 months it took Linda
approximately 3 - 4 hours to get
herself dressed, made-up and her
hair done. It was very
frustrating and was becoming a
healthcare issue for the two of
us. One evening I asked if she
ever thought that she would like
a wig? She said that she thought
of it but did not want to cut
her hair all off. Convincing her
that we needed to talk to a
professional and could make our
decision after that. Grabbing
the phone book I located Gayla
Wigs which was close to where we
live. I made the call and set an
appointment up. We were both
excited and apprehensive but not
for long. Gayle took us in her
private consultation room,
listened to our concerns,
addressed them showing the
utmost care and discussed the
advantages for Linda. Linda
wanted her wig to match her
existing color and as close to
her style as possible. Gayle hit
on the head with her selection.
She fitted the wig to fit Linda,
gave her the chance to express
how she wanted it trimmed and it
was all done. Linda walked out
of Gayla's a new person with a
new attitude and an ever present
smile I had not seen too often.
After three weeks we needed to
have it trimmed; called Gayle
and saw her two days later. She
fixed the problem without a
charge. I had seen and Linda had
tried on a second wig at our
initial appointment (to show her
the possibilities-down the road.
Well while Gayle was fixing the
original, I asked her if she had
the reddish wig in stock. A
quick stitch or two, a little
custom trimming; by her able
assistant Terri and I now have a
beautiful (not too red) headed
wife. I love it, She loves it.
If you find yourself in any sort
of situation similar to ours, I
urge you to call Gayla - it has
been the best thing that could
have happened for Linda & Me in
many a year. Thanks Gayle &
Terri Linda & Joe Beridon The
Woodlands, Texas
Outstanding service

If
you're looking for personalized
service, this is the place to
go. I am losing my hair due to a
combination of factors,
hereditary and stress and I was
feeling really depressed. So I
decided to go for my first wig
but did not know where to go or
where to start. I knew I did not
want to go to a wig shop and buy
one I wanted somebody to help me
choose, to show me how to wear
and adapt it to my style and
facial features. I Googled
personalized wig service in
Texas and found Gayla Wigs and
after reading the testimonials,
decided to give it a try. This
is why I am writing this review
to help other women in the same
situation I was. As soon as she
greeted me I realized there was
a special warmth about her which
is not easy to find these days.
I spent over an hour with her
and her assistant, she listens
to what you want and does not
try to impose. She adapts the
wig to your measurements, styles
it and cuts it the way you want
it. She shows you how to put it
on and how to take care of it, I
am really happy with my new wig
and very grateful to Gayle for
her wonderful service.
Just The Best Experience
Posted on 08/28/2009
My
wife has been losing her hair
due to medications so we went to
Gayla Wigs in the Woodlands.
Gayle met us at the door and
gave my wife personal attention
throughout the visit. She took
time to listen to my wife's
needs and concerns. She helped
my wife find the perfect wig,
then custom cut and fitted it
for her. Gayle showed her how to
care for the wig and gave lots
of suggestions for styling it
for different occasions. It is
obvious that Gayle has passion
for helping people and really
cares for her customers. My wife
now can go out in public and
feel confident that her hair
looks beautiful. The level of
care and skill was surprising
but the best surprise was the
reasonable price. All in all it
was just the best experience!
What a blessing
Posted on 07/13/2009
After experiencing a significant
hair loss due to a change in
medication, I recently stopped
by Sherry's Wigs on my lunch
hour just to look around the
shop. I left with a $325 wig and
totally clueless on how to care
for it. Not only did the wig not
fit properly, the itching from
this wig soon became unbearable.
I received no help and/or
suggestions when I contacted the
salon with this problem. While
searching the internet for help,
I discovered Gayla's website.
When I explained the situation
to Gayla, she was kind enough to
set aside time for me to stop by
and visit with her on a
one-on-one basis. After spending
more than an hour with her, I
left with products necessary to
care for the wig along with the
knowledge about the wig that I
should have received when I
purchased the wig from Sherry's
Wigs. Not once did Gayla try to
sell me of her wigs, which I
must say are absolutely
beautiful and are NOT made with
the itchy lining that my wig
contained. There is no doubt my
next wig will definitely be
purchased from Gayla. Thank you,
Gayla, for your genuine care and
concern. God bless you! Karen

Excellent in all ways!

Gayle is a gift to Texas and a
blessing to everyone who meets
her. She provides personal
service during difficult times.
She genuinely cares about her
clients. For me she personally
fitted the wig and styled it in
complete privacy and with
professional expertise. She went
out of her way to provide me
with the very best of service
and care. My friends and family
all think the wig is just
perfect, natural looking and
pretty. I think it is better
than natural! I wish everyone in
Texas knew what a professional
wig salon should be like. It
should be like Gayla Wigs. Gayle
can easily be your first and
last stop for a wig.

I
have a disease that has affected
me mentally in such a way, that
a deep depression lead me to an
experience comparable to
imprisonment (of my own home due
to the development of an
agoraphobic state), after the
experience of losing my hair at
the age of 28. I have always had
long hair, and for several
reasons that would take me too
long to explain, it was one of
my only features of myself that
I attached to my identity, as
well as, self confidence, and
what made me "feel
attractive/pretty". With the
loss of my hair I receded into
the safe confinement of my home,
rarely even leaving my house.
Following that I even lost the
love of all of my interests, and
hobbies. Only 3 months before
this loss, my boyfriend of 6
years had proposed to me. My
life took a downward spiral into
deep anger, and then depression
due to the loss of my beautiful
long brunette hair. A year
passed, no wedding, when the
news came that my aunt was
diagnosed with cancer. She went
through chemotherapy and lost
her beautiful red hair. Another
person that happened to be a
mutual friend of ours
recommended her to go to Gayla
Wigs and see Gayle, for what
became a life changing
experience for her. My aunt
recommended that I go to see
Gayle also, being concerned over
the state that I was in. It was
seriously like everyone else has
said, first of all, she new the
exact wig that was right for me
within a minute of us meeting.
Also, she has the the biggest
variety of the latest hair style
fashions in the most colors than
you could imagine. My experience
was also amazing concerning her
understanding of the trials I
was going through concerning my
complete loss of self
confidence, and lack of identity
due to my self image that had
thrown me into this great
depression in the first place. I
now have 5 wigs, which she was
very skilled at cutting to make
it even more personal to my
features. Needless to say I left
her place smiling from ear to
ear, I finally felt free again,
to live my life, and leave my
house to say the least. But best
of all, that confidence led to
my fiancé (now husband) and I
finally setting a date for our
wedding. The day of it, Gayle
styled my wig, and veil so
beautiful for the wedding, and
used her magic to make sure that
through all of the hugs,
festivities, dancing, and
congratulations, my wig remained
secure, and in place through all
four hours, and then including
the 8 hour plane ride on the way
to our honeymoon the next day.
Basically because of Gayle, I
gained the confidence, and the
courage to marry the love of my
life, after two full years of
engagement, and eight years of
dating. As you sit in her
styling chair you will notice
several awards that she has
obtained from various companies
as a top buyer of their stylish
wigs. To me that can only mean
that Gayle has a very large
number of satisfied clients
turned friends. She is also a
wonderful giver, who volunteers
her free time to MD Anderson
Cancer center helping many
cancer patients within the
hospital by donating and styling
many wigs, as well as
maintaining them. I admire Gayle
so much, and totally recommend
that you MUST go to her, she
will change your outlook on
life, and of your own
appearance. This April of 2009 I
went from engaged, to bride, to
wife, and I don't think I would
have ever felt "good enough
about myself" to do so without
her help. Thank you Gayle for
everything, you are an amazing
woman!!!
New found confidence!

I
have struggled with hereditary
hair loss throughout my adult
life. Hours of standing in front
of the mirror trying to make a
little go a long way using
expensive hair products, is so
disheartening. After years of
living overseas, my husband and
I re-located to Houston and I
finally decided to do something
positive for myself and seek
professional advice. Thank
goodness on my first nervous
phone call I talked to Gayle.
When my husband and I went to
see her she treated us with
respect and total privacy. She
found exactly the right style
and color and we were amazed at
the transformation! Gayle gave
me back my dignity and self
confidence. She is a true
professional who obviously loves
what she does, helping women not
only like me but also those who
have hair loss due to illness
through to recovery. We will
soon be re-locating to Africa
and I am looking forward to
traveling with complete
confidence and many new heads of
hair! Thank you Gayle!
So Grateful!!!

At
twenty-six years old I was
shocked to find myself feeling
excited about losing my hair! I
made an appointment with Gayle,
owner of Gayla Wigs, prior to
beginning chemotherapy with the
expectation of experiencing some
tough emotions as this whole
'cancer thing' became even more
of a reality. Instead, the joy
of the Lord shone brightly
through Gayle as she unknowingly
ministered to my heart with her
reassuring spirit and hopeful
outlook. She graciously aided my
wig selection by sharing her
years of expertise then
customized the wigs to reflect
my personality. Yes, I said
wigs, plural. Once viewing all
the options she has available it
seemed impossible to pick just
one! It is obvious that Gayle is
right smack dab in the middle of
God's will for her life as she
faithfully shows love and
compassion to all who enter
store.
Exceptional The Only Choice for
a Wig
Posted on 02/26/2009
Words cannot express my
gratitude for the heartfelt
caring service which Gayle at
Gayla Wigs offers. As Gayle
herself states, "Any hair loss
can be traumatic." After losing
my hair from chemotherapy for
cancer I lost my dignity and
sense of self. However, what I
thought was sure to be the worst
past of cancer was only a minor
inconvenience due to a special
"wig angel" named Gayle. Her
professional knowledge of her
product combined with her
compassion and sensitivity to
her client made the entire
experience a pure delight. My
husband is so pleased with the
wig, when this is over, he wants
me to shave my head and wear a
wig! Who could ask for more from
a wig? Thanks Gayle.
PERSONAL, PRIVATE, GREAT
SERVICE!

I have been losing my hair for
twenty years due to an
irreversible medical condition,
and I finally needed a wig last
fall. As any woman with hair
loss knows, this issue is more
than superficial or cosmetic. It
can affect your self-confidence
and the image you present to the
world. Purely by chance, I ran
across an ad for Gayla Wigs in
the local newspaper. I am so
glad I read the paper that day!
Gayle provides professional yet
warm and personable service. Her
empathy, patience, and expertise
helped me find exactly what I
needed. Gayle's genuine concern
and interest for her clients is
evident. She didn't hesitate to
offer her honest opinion and
worked with me until each wig
fit perfectly and I was
satisfied. Gayle has always been
available to answer questions
and make adjustments when
necessary. Following my latest
purchase at Gayla Wigs, my
co-workers and friends were very
complimentary of my new "cut and
color," and my family (who know
I wear a wig), still couldn't
believe how "real" it looks, and
think it's "so cute!" At a
recent big event, I was able to
cross a stage in front of
thousands of people with
confidence, because I feel good
about how I look (thanks,
Gayle!).

I recently made a huge leap of
faith and moved to Dallas to
accept a position with the
company that I work for. I have
been told that there isn’t
anything that you can’t find in
the Dallas Metro Plex. Well,
that’s not quite true. I have
made it a point to investigate
some of the wig shops in the
area and I have been severely
disappointed with what I found.
The sales people are just that.
No one took a personal interest
in my plight nor did they offer
any evidence that they
understood the emotional trauma
associated with losing your
hair. So.. I will continue to
rely on Gayle to support my
needs. She never made me feel
like a patron to her business.
She made me feel like I had just
become a member in the
sisterhood. Her attention to my
needs was not only genuine, it
was personal. Bless you for what
you do...everyday…for all your
sisters Shirley Barton
What a true gift

My mother-n-law is undergoing
chemo and had a hard time losing
her hair due to the treatment.
She went to other wig shops and
it was basically as if to say
'here's your wig out of the box,
good luck' and felt discouraged.
Gayle's shop is completely
different. Her work comes from
her heart. She has a true
passion for what she does and
takes to heart each individual's
circumstances. I sent her a
picture of what her hair looked
like before our appointment and
Gayle studied that picture and
fit her perfectly... the color,
the style, the fit... everything
was just right. My mother-n-law
looked incredible and she felt
like a million dollars! Here is
part of the email I sent to
Gayle to thank her for such a
wonderful job - "I just wanted
to take a minute to email you to
let you know that you have a
true gift. I wish more people
would take to heart their own
personal distresses and turn
them into something wonderful -
because they know the struggles
of what it’s like to face
certain challenges. That’s the
way to change people’s lives…
and clearly you have that
wonderful ability to do that.
Thanks again for your
commitment, your talent and most
of all your kind heart." Please
see her, she will change your
life.
Changes from the inside out!

I received a call from a friend
of my asking if I would go with
her to pick out her wig. She has
cancer and starting her
treatments soon, so she knew
this was something she had to
do. Wow, what an honor to be
asked to help someone make a
life choice like this. Unless
you have gone through this you
wouldn't think of hair as a life
choice but from the way my
friend looked and felt when she
walked in Gayle's shop to the
way she looked and felt when we
walked out, it was definitely a
life changing moment, she looked
beautiful from the inside out! I
cannot express to you what a
gift Gayle has. She fit my
friend in the perfect wig right
off the bat. She was so
encouraging, very helpful and
made the whole experience a
pleasant one. I would recommend
anyone who needs a wig for any
reason go to Gayla Wigs, and I
pray that one day I can make the
kind of impact on our world that
Gayle makes everyday!!!!
A TRUE HAIR ARTIST!

I am very fortunate because I am
still healthy, so I can't even
begin to imagine how much those
not so fortunate have benefited
from Gayle's talent... her
talent of boosting confidence...
confidence to feel good about
who you are and how you look...
with incredible new hair (yes, a
wig)! She has such talent, is a
true hair artist, makes you feel
comfortable and at ease, and
treats you with such respect and
professionalism... and in
privacy! What a treat! As a
woman in my early 50's, after
many years of self dying and
poisoning my head/hair, I have
rapidly thinning and damaged
hair. On a whim, my husband and
I stopped Gayla Wigs, just for a
peek. Well, an hour later I
walked out a very confident new
woman, and the proud owner of a
fresh new look. Gayle is very
refreshing. and guess what? She
loves her work and it shows! I
am one very satisfied client. I
highly recommend Gayle, Gayla
Wigs. No matter what your reason
for visiting her, you will feel
welcome (not embarrassed or
ashamed) and you will leave
feeling beautiful and confident!
Kuddos, Gayle, keep up the great
work that you do! THANKS! Marla

My 17-year-old daughter was
diagnosed with a rare form of
cancer requiring chemotherapy.
Another exceptionally satisfied
customer guided us straight to
Gayle. She selected the ideal
wig for my daughter within 30
seconds. We are constantly met
with the question, from doctors
and fellow patients, in a polite
whisper, "Is that a wig? Where
did you get it?" We proudly hand
out Gayle's cards and give them
directions. There are no words
to describe how reassuring it is
to know, no matter what
treatment my daughter has had to
endure, that she can look just
like any other teenager she
passes in the hall. Gayle's
personalized service, along with
her compassion, sensitivity and
intuitiveness, has made what
could have been an awkward
encounter an inspirational
experience. There are angels
roaming this earth, and one of
them is named Gayle!
A Matter of Dignity

I have a rare neurological
condition for which I must take
a cocktail of medications. One
side effect is hair loss. I came
to Gayle defeated and
embarrassed by my situation. She
treated me with sensitivity and
respect and gave me back my
dignity. Her products are
professionally made and the
personalized customizations that
she provides made my wig
indistinguishable from my own
hair. I have been repeatedly
complimented on my new look.
Gayle, you will always be my
angel...

Loosing your hair can be
difficult but Gayla wigs made me
feel pretty again. Gayle is so
dedicated to her work in helping
women feel better about
themselves. I found her
informative, professional and
caring. The selection and
quality of wigs is very nice. I
just bought my 3rd wig and
everyone thinks it is my own
hair!! Thank you Gayle

One year ago, not only was I
turning gray but I also
developed an allergy to hair
dye. Every day was a "bad hair
day". So, I made up my mind to
find a solution---and I did! Her
name is Gayle. Her understanding
and compassion were remarkable.
She had the integrity to say
"NO" when I suggested a wig with
curls and instead produced a
style which was perfect. She has
a "hair" talent which cannot be
taught and a professional manner
which is to be admired. What a
difference a wig makes! What a
difference Gayle makes in so
very many lives. Thanks Gayle
for a job well done! Wig

Gayle was recommended to me with
nothing but good things said
about her .She is so full of
knowledge and compassion and has

personable.

I recently had the pleasure of

that I was pleased is an

this establishment. Thank you...

I just wanted to share with you
all the positive comments I have
had on my " new look". Thank you
for all your advice. You love
what you do and it shows.
I have given your name out to
several friends already and told
them they were in for a treat!
I'm sure you'll be seeing more
of me in the future.
