My name is Sarah Ritchie and I live in Vancouver BC. My hair has always been thinner than I would have liked it to be. I always wished i had long gorgeous, full, big bodied hair but unfortunately I inherited my family's thin stringy and straight hair. Then suddenly when i was 17 a few round bald patches appeared on my scalp. I was diagnosed with having Alopecia Areta. AA is an auto-immune disorder that cause the immune system to attack itself. There is currently no cure available. I tried several different treatments including creams, very painful cortisone injections directly into the scalp, and eventually a very strong and dangerous steroid called Prednizone which has a lot of long term side effects and causes extreme weight gain in the face. Not an easy thing to have to go through at any age let only being a 17 year old girl in her grad year of high school. I couldn't face my friends or even bare to look in the mirror and my self esteem was completely destroyed. I lost about 65% of my hair. I am 32 years old now and over the years I have learned to accept this condition with a grain of salt but have always been hoping and searching for a solution and ways to hide it that were comfortable and that didn't look unnatural or fake. Good quality hair is very hard to find, people will try and sell you anything. It can be quite expensive and it's really hard to find a company that is capable of doing the installments in a way that is both natural looking and comfortable to wear. It can be embarrassing going to regular salons where other people end up staring at you and the staff doesn't have the proper experience needed to deal with this type of condition. I had pretty much gave up any hope of finding any solutions that would fit all of this criteria.
That is...until I heard about a company in Vancouver called MOHAIR. I heard about them about a 2 years ago. This place is just simply amazing! Not only are they extremely knowledgable when it comes to different types and all conditions of hair loss, but they are also very sensitive, empathetic, friendly and discreet. They have gone way above and beyond to work with my specific wants and needs and I would recommend them to absolutely anybody who for whatever reason would like to have a different head of hair than the one that they have now. MOHAIR is in a word-incredible!!! They have the complete resources and ability to help anybody in absolutely any situation. They really go the extra mile to make sure that you are completely 100% satisfied with the outcome. I have spent hundreds of dollars on hair in the past and ended up completely wasting my money and just doing more damage to my actual hair in the long run because of bad quality hair and bad quality installments. Mohair 100% guarantees not only the quality of the hair but also offers a 2week free follow up to make sure that you are completely happy with the work they've done for you. I am so very grateful to have found out about Mohair and I can honestly say that I now finally have the hair that i have always wanted and I also have a very special and fantastic team of people who are there to help keep me beautiful. My self esteem is so much better today because of Mohair. My husband and friends and family are so impressed with not only the way I look but how happy I am now. My mom says that she has her happy little girl back and I really do finally feel like myself again and an even better version at that! I want absolutely everybody to know about Mohair because it can be so depressing to have to live with something that you don't like about yourself, it effects every aspect in your life and it is no way to live. This is why I am posting this on the internet, so that the world can see that there are real and wonderful options available for anyone and everyone who wants or needs different hair than what they are currently stuck with. Mohair works with both male and female clients, and there is no situation or condition that they haven't already worked with and can find ways to solve and make you feel and look beautiful again. Even if I didn't have alopecia, I would still continue to go to Mohair because I have never, ever been as happy with my hair as i am now-even before I was diagnosed with this condition! Mohair has been able to finally give me the hair and the confidence that I have always wanted and I could not ask for anything more. BIG BIG BIG THANK YOU TO MOHAIR!! They have given me my life back :)
