Testimonials

These are true testimonials from people, much like you, that are thankful they have found Continental Hair. Read their appreciation and gratitude for the professional help given. Serving women, children & men for any type of hairloss, we believe that when our clients feel good, their immediate surrounding get affected too. All and all, we lift the spirits of everybody.

At Continental Hair, we give our best to make people look amazing and it shows... Simply read the testimonials on how we gave them the confidence to carry on with their everyday activities.

Just wanted to let you know how grateful I am. Not only does my hair look great, I am turning heads at 51 years of age. Still not used to having "great hair" and not used to people commenting on my hair, but something I will get use to for sure. Looking your best is always a good thing....but the confidence you gave me is incredible.

After bragging about you guys, my sister is flying up from the States, as soon as the snow melts. She has been all over the world with her extensions, and integration systems, (same hair as mine) and cannot believe what you do.

So from the bottom of my heart, special thanks to you, Jackie and Jen, you have made such a great difference in my life. You always make me feel so special.

Sincerely,
D. B.
Dear Michael and everyone at Continental Hair,

I wanted to write to express my gratitude and let you know how extremely thrilled I am with my new postiche.

My hair loss began a year ago after going off the birth control pill. My doctor told me it was common, and hormonal, and would settle down after a few months. Unfortunately, it was the trigger needed to bring out Androgenetic Alopecia/Female Pattern Hairloss, which runs in my family. I'm only 24, so I never expected it would happen this early on in life.

After realizing that my hair loss was not going to correct itself, I decided to visit Continental Hair for a consultation. I was about to start a new job and wanted to look my best.

I could not have asked for a better experience. Michael and Jennifer took the time to tell me about the history of Continental Hair, how they find quality human hair, and what I could expect with a postiche. I was thrilled to discover that there was a postiche in stock, which was exactly my hair colour and length. When Jennifer and Michael put it on me and cut the bangs to match my hair, my boyfriend was amazed. "It looks just like the old you," he said.

When I got home that evening (proudly and confidently wearing my new hair), my mom asked me, "How was the appointment, when do you get it?" I stepped a little closer and said, "Mom, I'm wearing it!!! Can't you tell?" She was amazed! She actually had to pull a couple strands and ask me if I could feel it (in order to determine which hairs were my own and which ones were part of the postiche).

It has now been about a month and I feel like I've regained the confidence and the love for life that I had lost along with my hair. I can actually think about other things besides wondering, "Is my bald spot showing right now?" I dont think about that at all, because I know my hair looks amazing!!! I am so happy that I decided to go to Continental Hair. It has honestly changed my life for the better, and I am now back to enjoying my 20's instead of obsessing over how many hairs are in the sink every morning.

Thank you a million times over!!

Thank you Michael, to you and your staff, for your fine service and understanding of a condition that is most pervasive – Alopecia Areata.

Recently, I was at Continental Hair to have my new hair piece blown out and cut with my own remaining hair (due to Alopecia Areata), It was an enjoyable and fun experience as the staff are light-hearted and understanding. I left Continental Hair feeling fabulous and confident. Imagine my delight when I was browsing through Whole Foods at Hazleton Lanes, five minutes after leaving Continental Hair and I was approached by a man who said “Excuse me Miss … you have beautiful hair.” I was highly flattered and replied “Thank you.” He quickly responded “No, really, I am a hairdresser … will you do a hair show for me?” I smiled, and felt my eyes well up after hearing such a wonderful compliment from one of the best stylists in Yorkville, although I appreciatively declined his invitation.

I am so pleased with all that Continental Hair has done for me. I have visited other hair replacement professionals, but I felt that their products did not look natural, and would not have satisfied my needs. My recommendation to anyone suffering from any type of hair loss is to go directly to Continental Hair. Michael and his staff will confidentially and compassionately help you find what works best for your particular situation. The products are amazing! Thanks again Michael!

Have a great day!

Hi,

I bought an integration system back in January. My husband drove to Toronto from Montreal a few days before going to Florida. Well we are back from Florida and I just wanted to tell you that my hair is terrific. It looks and feels fabulous even on breezy days walking on the beach. I can wear headbands and even tie it back in a ponytail. Thank you again.

Michael,

Thanks so much to you and Cora-Lee for being so wonderful with S. B. yesterday afternoon. She went to Continental Hair, thinking this could be another letdown. She was delighted to be leaving with such a lovely piece of hair. As you know, treatment for alopecia areata is difficult, and we have found no success so far. With the hair you were able to provide, she can feel normal again. If her condition worsens, we will certainly have you make her a bigger hairpiece or wig.

It was very reinforcing to meet other young women with the same or more hair loss, going about their daily lives with confidence. The two ladies who were in your building when we were there, helped S. B. see that she was not alone.

Thanks again Michael, and we will have that script for the hairpiece soon.

Take care,
M. B.
Hello Mike,

I just wanted to send you a quick note to thank you. I just received the wig, and it looks great! I'm amazed at what you can do. I no longer feel shy going to class - you've helped me out so much! Please let your stylist know how grateful I am. The colour and cut are just perfect!

Thanks again,
D. D.
Dear Michael,

I wore my new hair for the first time at a neighborhood celebration attended entirely by people who see each other every day. That night the compliments flowed, and they haven't stopped. I am told that I look younger, prettier, fitter, thinner, or that my new hairstyle and/or hair color suits me very well. I think I've fooled everyone. I haven't had anyone peering at me suspiciously, or tugging my hair to see if it'll come off. I have had questions about what kind of hair products I use, and how long it takes me to style it. Fortunately, your stylist had concocted a story about a body perm that now serves me very well.

Because I have financial constraints right now, I don't wear the hair system very often. Instead, I've taken to wrapping a kerchief around my head (which I've also been told suits me well) and saving the system for special occasions. I've now worn it 18 times, and am ready to come in to learn how to clean it and to have it trimmed - it doesn't quite hang right on one side.

However, before phoning for an appointment, I wanted to tell you how thrilled I am. I look how I should look, and how I used to look, and I'm so grateful that these wonderful hair systems exist and that I have one. I'll have to wait until 2007 to order a second one, but after that I'll always have two. I shudder at the thought of anything happening to my one and only....

Warmest wishes,
F. B.
Hello!

Just to let you know, the hair is fantastic! I've never gotten so many compliments before, and it looks so natural!! Thank you again for all your help, it really means alot to me!! Your stylist did such a wonderful job, I don't know how else anyone could have helped me more!!

Thanks again!

Dear Michael and Staff,

How can I express my gratitude? You have taken the saddest most challenging part of my life and made it manageable.

Thank you for your compassion, sincerity and professionalism.

Dear Michael,

I received the wig and it is fantastic! I love it. It fits perfectly and will be even more comfortable than the last. The color and texture are gorgeous. And it fits so well that it stays in place without taping. Thank you so much!

Good luck to you and your new family and your new angel. I will keep in touch, and send you a picture of how I look when I have it cut (I'm going to keep the length, though-I love it). I really appreciate everything.

Your friend,
A.
Dear Michael and Staff,

I am at a loss for words to express my gratitude to you and your team for your professional, informative, and caring service.

For the first time in my life, I was surrounded by service providers who genuinely cared about my condition, my insecurities, and my needs as a bald woman. Your kindness is reflected in the beautiful hair piece on my head.

Thanks again for everything!

Sincerely,
B.L.
Hi Michael,

I just wanted to thank you for all of the effort you put into for providing me with my hair piece, it has changed my life, I absolutely love it, and i no longer feel so different from the other girls at school any more, and I can finally style my hair and do many different things. And I just wanted to say thank you and what you are doing is wonderful.

Jennifer S.
Dear Michael and Staff:

I just wanted to send you and your team a quick note to say thank you. I wanted to let you know how much I appreciate all of your help. Purchasing wigs used to be so traumatic for me, and since coming to see you at your store/salon I have never felt so comfortable. Now buying a wig is not a terrible thing, I actually get excited to see how my hair will look once it comes in. Your stylist always does such a wonderful job on my hair, when she did my hair for the wedding I was a bride's maid in, I honestly never thought my wig could look so stylish and beautiful, even the hairdresser who was styling the bride's hair commented on how beautiful the style was. She was shocked when I told her it is a wig.

You definitely go above and beyond the call of duty (not only with me, but with all of your clients that I have seen come in to meet with you) to make sure we all feel at ease and that we leave with more than just a full head of hair, you help us to feel confident about our new looks and we always have a smile when we leave.

I am truly a happier person from my purchases and my experience with your store/salon.

See you again soon!

Kindest regards,
B. D.
Dear Michael,

It seems that you are another of the guardian angels that god has sent our way to help us on our road through cancer.

I am still shaking my head in wonder at your very generous act of including our daughter in the wigs for kids' program.

I found it difficult to express my thanks while we were in the shop and want you to know that we are deeply grateful for your kindness. God bless you.

We shall include your family and mother in our prayers.

Sincerely,
Fred & Mary Jane V.
Dear Michael and Staff,

I just wanted to take a moment to THANK YOU ALL again for helping me to find a wig I like. I never thought it would be possible, but the sense of renewed hope & have now for my life feels wonderful.

After leaving your shop, my husband & I actually went shopping and to lunch in Toronto before driving home. I was a little panic-stricken with how windy it was, but with the cut your stylist did, everything just feel right back into place. It was amazing and a great feeling!

The time your stylist took with me to listen to me and what I wanted and how she cut the wig to really suit me really made all the difference. Everyone who has seen it comments on how beautifully it's cut and I agree completely! I feel so thankful that I found Continental Hair.

The following day I went shopping and out to dinner with my husband, I never thought it would even be possible that I'd even go out in public with wig, and here I am, anxious to go places. It really is a wonderful feeling and I can't thank you both enough.

Just wanted to let you know what a difference you've made for me.

Sincerely,
Ann S.
Dear Michael and Staff,

It has been almost 6 months since Kristina and I photocopied the "wig" section of the Toronto phone book looking for a store that could help Kristina buy a wig. Although her hair loss wasn't a total hair loss, her hair loss was very, very upsetting to her. She had been starting to avoid social situations and was upset about losing most of her hair before her wedding.

We of course decided to come to Continental Hair, and from the first moment we walked into your salon, you put both of us, but most importantly Kristina, at complete ease. You treated her with respect and took her emotional state totally in stride. You and your team stayed after store closing hours to accommodate us as we were from out of town, and were leaving for Thunder Bay the next day. This was really appreciated. I'll never forget how many times I "caught" Kristina looking at herself in store windows, and in mirrors the day we left your salon. She told me she finally felt whole again, and felt she would be able to face the world again.

Her fiancι met us at the airport when we arrived home and he told her she was absolutely beautiful. She has received many, many compliments, and quite a few people who she has met after her wig purchase had no idea that it was a wig. She was just a maid of honor at her best girlfriends wedding and her hairdresser had put Kristina's hair and wig in an "updo" and I think she looked absolutely smashing!! She hopes to wear her hair in the same style at her own wedding this July.

Kristina has been e-mailing for a while to another alopecia sufferer and referred her to you just in the last couple of months. Sharon is from Pennsylvania, (also a school teacher), and is very, very pleased with her wig.

Thank you very much for bringing my daughter back! She is back to her old self again, enjoying life and having fun. I will highly recommend your salon to anyone in need. You are both highly professional, and have treated my daughter with dignity. Thank you again, and thank you to all of your staff.

Sincerely,
Laura P.
Michael and Staff,

Thank you so much for making this difficult time in our lives it a little more manageable. Lisa has returned to school with confidence and received only favourable comments about her new hairstyle (that being the wispy bangs). Thanks to her wonderful wig she is participating in all her regular activities (when she has the energy), including school, gym and her badminton club.

I haven't yet been able to convince her to take the wig off for sleeping, but she is wearing the hair net you provided which keeps the hair nice and smooth. She just doesn't like the feel of her head with the wig off. I certainly can't blame her so am not pushing the issue and just hope the wig will last until her own hair returns.

The nurses at Sick Kids were amazed with Lisa's wig and all wanted to know where we got it. Naturally, we recommended your shop with confidence!

Thank you again so much for your kind consideration.

Kind regards,
Barry and Renee B.
Dear Michael,

This is a late Christmas card to again thank you for all your help, and your recent e-mail. I got the Infusium Ultra and some good shampoo. I don't have many pictures of myself, but I am having my stylist do my hair again (she does a much better job than me) and I will take a picture and send it to you. I'm no model, but you are welcome to use it on your web site. Good luck and God bless you!

Sincerely,
Annette C.
Dear Michael,

This letter is to express appreciation and gratitude for the professional help given to me by you and your staff at Continental Hair. Your assistance in selecting the most suitable wig for me during the most difficult time in my life has been invaluable.

The wig we decided on gave me the confidence to carry on with everyday activities, in spite of the fact that I was undergoing six months of aggressive chemotherapy. I could put my wig on and look like my old self, (even if I didn't quite feel like my old self)!

Even more amazing was the fact that the wig was so natural looking that when I first began to wear it, my spouse, family, friends and even my oncologists were shocked and surprised to learn it was indeed a wig!

I truly believe I would have become a recluse this past year had it not been for the wig which maintained my appearance, boosted my self-esteem, and ultimately helped me to cope with the devastating physical and emotional side-effects of chemotherapy.

Thank you for your expertise, kindness and compassion.

Yours sincerely,
Mrs. A. C.
Michael and Staff

Everything is going quite well with my wig! Thank you so much for your professionalism during such a difficult time. I had meant to thank you both more than I did but I found myself in an overwhelming emotional state! I just love my new hair and will definitely come back in a few years.

With much thanks,
Kristina
Dear Michael and Staff,

I want to thank you all very much for helping my mom Ruth out and making her such a beautiful wig! She has had many compliments on it and feels good in it! It is so important as you and your team know to help lift the spirits. You have been very kind and thoughtful and we all appreciate it.

Be well,
Roberta S.
