“I was so happy to receive such colourful headscarves from CCWA Wig Service. They are bright colours which I love. I wear them to the gym and at home. The wig is fantastic and so like my normal hair. Thank you Cancer Council WA.” – Wig Service client

Fully trained volunteers are available to assist you with the selection, fitting and management of your products. Please note, every item loaned by the Wig Service is laundered to ensure sanitised products are available for our clients.

If you have already lost your hair, please supply a photograph taken prior to your hair loss to assist with the selection. It is also helpful to see you in your normal make-up, including eyebrow definition.

In order for us to continually provide a free ongoing Wig Service, we do request wigs and products borrowed are returned to the service when they are no longer required.

UPDATE: We are pleased to announce that our Wig Service has now re-opened for face-to-face appointments.  We will continue to support our clients via our postal service if they are unable to attend the Service in person.
