S2E20 Milano Wigs - How the Quest to Find Something Natural, Secure & Comfortable Led to Innovations in the Wig Industry

Thank you for sharing your time with us today. Our guest in this episode is Judy Geisinsky. She is the founder of Milano Wigs. A few months ago, I had some requests from listeners asking to know more about wigs. At the same time, I was contacted by someone who wanted to share about Milano with our listeners.  Normally, I don't talk much about wigs. My expertise is next-to-nothing. When I was young, Shriner's hospital paid for my first and last custom-made wig from a salon. I know a lot of work went into replicating what my hair looked like before it fell out, but I remember it also being extremely uncomfortable and super sweaty in the hot California sun. As an adult, the ones I chose to wear were itchy, tight, cheap & synthetic, and they never gave me a sense of security while wearing them. In fact, while I carried my son on my back when he was a toddler, I had the unfortunate experience of my wig being quite literally ripped off my head while we stood in the middle of a grocery store.After hearing Judy's story and more about Milano, I realized this was exactly what many of you are looking for while searching for wigs in the sea of information that is out there. It was awesome to hear about alternatives to what I had experienced, especially when obsessing about how secure I felt when leaving the house in a wig.Thank you again for spending your time with us today on Alopecia Life.
