In our shop in Amstelveen, small miracles happen every day. Customers who see themselves again in the mirror, moments of emotion, and conversations that go deeper than just hair. La-Jeria, founder and wig expert of Adore My Wig, regularly shares on LinkedIn what she experiences in the shop — personal stories, lessons from the craft, and insights that touch the heart.
Through her posts, you get a behind-the-scenes look: where care for natural wigs goes hand in hand with attention, honesty, and connection. This blog is meant to bring those stories extra attention, so you can read along with the inspiration and insights from the shop that La-Jeria shares with her community.
“How do you respond as a colleague when someone appears at work for the first time wearing a hairpiece?”
After a fitting session in the shop, I often hear the same concern, says La-Jeria:
“What if my colleagues see that my hair suddenly looks different? What will they say?”
This shows how great the role of the workplace is in the self-confidence of someone with hair loss. A new wig or hairpiece is often more than a change of appearance — it is a step towards restoring self-worth. And precisely on that first day back at the office, a thoughtless remark can make the difference between insecurity and confidence.
That is why La-Jeria shares in her Adore My Wig LinkedIn post a number of simple but valuable tips for colleagues:
Keep it natural and normal.
A neutral, warm attitude helps someone feel safe.
Avoid direct remarks
such as “is that a wig?” or “why does your hair look different all of a sudden?”
Well meant, but often painful or confronting.
Rather give a safe compliment,
such as “you look great today.”
This way you emphasize the positive without naming the change.
Respect boundaries.
If someone does not bring it up themselves, leave the subject alone.
Never touch the hair without permission.
Even with good intentions, that can feel very uncomfortable.
As La-Jeria writes: “Sometimes the smallest gesture is the greatest — just act as if everything is normal.”
That gives someone the space to be confident again, even at work.
This post touches on something many people do not consider: how important a safe environment is for someone wearing a hairpiece. For colleagues, this is valuable insight — because with a little kindness you make a world of difference.
“Choosing a hairpiece is not a simple purchase. It is a process.”
Choosing a hairpiece may seem at first glance something practical — as if you are just picking a new hairstyle or accessory. But in reality, it is much more intimate.
In the shop, every fitting session does not start with a mirror, but with listening.
La-Jeria asks: “What are your worries? How do you want to feel? What fits your daily life – also at work?”
Only then come the models, the natural wigs, the fits, and the small details that make the difference between “it looks nice” and “this feels like my own hair.”
During such a moment, something special happens. Calm arises. Sometimes relief. Sometimes tears. And often a new sparkle appears in someone’s eyes — the moment when someone finds a piece of themselves again.
As a wig expert in Amstelveen, La-Jeria sees daily how great the emotional impact of this process can be. Because a hairpiece is not a superficial purchase; it is a personal journey. A process in which trust, kindness, and honesty are central.
And yet, after every fitting session, often the same question returns:
“How would my colleagues react if they see that my hair looks different?”
That one question touches exactly the core of why Adore My Wig is not just about hair, but about self-confidence, connection, and understanding. A natural hairpiece helps someone feel like themselves again — but true support begins with how the surroundings respond.
La-Jeria ends her LinkedIn post with an invitation:
How would you react if a colleague suddenly appeared at work with a different hairstyle or hairpiece?
A question that makes us all think — about what true respect, warmth, and humanity mean.
