Tina at Studio T Salon is a fabulous stylist and amazing colorist.

"Her custom toppers are quality pieces with real human hair. I have a good amount of hair but not the volume on top I once had. Back combing, products and hair spray were damaging to my hair. wanted one to add volume and make for a perfect hair day every day. I was not disappointed. Tina cuts and colors the toppers to blend perfectly with bio hair. I love mine! My husband, son and best friend, who see me daily, never even noticed. They just thought my hair looked great. I love and admire Tina's heart and passion for helping women bring their inner beauty out, and increase their confidence. Whether you are suffering from hair loss, limited growth after cancer treatment or just want a great hair day every day Tina is the gal to help. I highly recommend her!"

I just wanted to express my love for my topper.

"I feel like I look younger. I have friends that complement me all the time. One of my friends is in the process of ordering a topper for herself. My topper has been so easy to use and I have done different hair styles from curling it to wearing part of it up with a clip. The color Tina chose was spot on. Not only does she know how to place toppers on but her knowledge of color is brilliant!! Dealing with her is just like talking to a good friend. This experience has been wonderful!!🥰"

It's difficult to explain in a few words...😊

"I followed Studio T for a year to make sure I was comfortable with the hair pieces and process. I reached out and a face time consult transpired with Tina. The process was seamless and the consultant was excellent. I sent pictures of my hair/head and the color formula from my salon stylist. Studio T gave me a time frame for the process and delivery. The whole experience was seamless. I am so so ecstatic with the cut, color and look. I'm ecstatic and Studio T Salon did a fabulous job. "

I absolutely love my new hair! 

"I was worried about ordering without actually seeing the hair. I took a leap of faith and am so happy I did! Tina worked with my hairstylist and the color is perfect. I still have enough hair that I don’t wear it all the time, but when I do, people say “your hair looks so good” they really don’t know my little secret. "

The density, texture and color are perfect with my natural hair.  

"Hello! Here’s a shot of me in my absolutely beautiful topper! I took out all of my extensions and am wearing this beauty daily. The density, texture and color are perfect with my natural hair. Out for happy hour this past weekend, two ladies came up to me separately, to tell me how pretty my hair was! My husband loves it and is blown away that it’s not my natural hair. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for doing what you do, helping us with our hair challenges. I definitely see purchasing another one in my future! Forever grateful ❤️."

I honestly could not have come this far without my fantastic Wig! 

"When you are told you have cancer, your whole world stops and you do not know if you will ever feel “normal” again. My greatest concern with chemotherapy was losing my hair. Even with all the other side effects and potential serious complications of chemotherapy, my main concern was my hair loss. I cannot apologize for feeling this way. It is the reality of my emotional state at the time. My Wig from Studio T Salon has been my ticket to feeling “normal”. At the start of this journey, I was very private about my diagnosis. My Wig from Studio T Salon looks so natural and beautiful. It gave (and still gives me) the confidence to continue to work and have social interactions without having a complex about looking different or sick. I also invested in cold capping to try to save as much of my own hair as possible. I did save my own hair, but it was gray and there were bald patches. The Wig gave me more confidence than anything else I have used (hats, headbands, head wraps, cold capping) during my treatments. Thank you Studio T Salon for helping me find my “normal” during this challenging cancer journey! I honestly could not have come this far without my fantastic Wig!!! I even named her! I am SO thankful for my natural looking Wig. My close people, who are very honest with me, all told me they cannot tell it’s a Wig! Even the infusion nurses tell me my Wig is one of the best they have seen! Thank you Studio T Salon—- your work is important and valuable!!! "
