How much does a cancer patient wig cost in Belfast?

£390 – £1,870 for the unit, quoted as a written band before the order rather than on the chair. The price does not change by locality — there is no travel surcharge anywhere in Belfast. What does change your quote is base material, hair grade, coverage area and density.

How long does a cancer patient wig take in Belfast?

7–10 days fully custom, rushed to 3–5 days when treatment starts sooner. The consultation and template take about 45 minutes and can happen at your home anywhere in Belfast; the fitting itself is a separate appointment once the unit arrives.

How often will I need servicing in Belfast?

Every three to four weeks — roughly 14 visits a year. Belfast's humidity is what sets that interval; sweat, not manufacturing, is what ends most bonds here.

Do you fit a cancer patient wig at home in Belfast?

Yes, and most Belfast clients choose it. Free doorstep consultation anywhere across greater Belfast. Templating, fitting, servicing and repairs all happen at home to the same standard as a studio visit, at the same price.

Wigs for Cancer Patients in Belfast

We make wigs for cancer patients to order for clients across Belfast, measured on your own scalp rather than a standard template. A medical wig matched to your own hair before chemotherapy or radiotherapy causes loss, on a soft, seam-free cap with no bonding or adhesive against a treatment-sensitive scalp. Turned around fast enough to be ready before your first cycle.

Nothing is glued on the first visit — we template, order, then fit once the piece matches you. Sweat, helmets and daily commutes in Belfast shape how long a bond realistically lasts.

Price in Belfast: £390 – £1,870
Turnaround: 7–10 days fully custom, rushed to 3–5 days when treatment starts sooner
Servicing: Every three to four weeks
Best for: Anyone starting cancer treatment who wants a matched wig ready before hair loss begins.

How Belfast's climate changes this build

Belfast's temperatures are some of the mildest and most stable in the UK — proper heat and proper cold are both rare — but that mildness comes paired with very high humidity and rainfall spread across a huge number of days each year, plus a steady wind funnelling up Belfast Lough from the Irish Sea.

It's the combination that matters: unlike a hot, humid city where heat is the obvious enemy, Belfast's challenge is a system that's rarely under any thermal stress but is almost never fully dry either. Bases here can stay damp for days at a time in a wet spell, which is a slower, quieter problem than heat-driven sweat but just as damaging to bonding if it isn't managed.

What is included

Colour, density and texture matched from your own hair while you still have it
Soft, seam-free cap with no bonding — nothing adhered to a scalp that may be sore or sensitive
Cranial prosthesis letter provided for insurance, FSA or HSA claims where your provider accepts one
Free follow-up refits through treatment as your head shape and comfort needs change

Where we fit a cancer patient wig in Belfast

Belfast doesn't have a studio yet, so consultations, fittings and repairs are all carried out as home visits, run to a scheduled rota rather than one-off bookings wherever possible.

One route covers east Belfast, the Titanic Quarter and Sydenham near the shipyard. A second covers west and south Belfast along the Malone Road, Lisburn Road and Stranmillis, and a third follows the Translink rail lines out to Bangor and Lisburn for clients further out.

For clients who'd rather not have a technician visit a shared house or office, we can meet at a private space near Belfast's Grand Central Station on request.

Owning a cancer patient wig in Belfast: the twelve-month view

At 14 service visits a year, servicing is a bigger line item than most people expect when they compare unit prices. This is the schedule we plan against.

Aftercare schedule for a cancer patient wig in Belfast
When	What happens
First 1-2 weeks	Comfort check. We confirm the cap sits well against hair that is starting to shed, and adjust padding or sizing if the fit needs to change.
As needed through treatment	Free refit. Scalp sensitivity, swelling and hair regrowth pattern can all change how a cap should sit — refits are included, not charged separately, for the length of your treatment.
Ongoing	Wash and care guidance suited to daily wear, including how to keep the cap comfortable against skin that may be more sensitive than usual.
Regrowth phase	A plan for transitioning off the wig as your own hair returns, or keeping it in rotation for security during the patchy regrowth stage — whichever you prefer.

A 20-minute consultation is enough to decide between a skin, lace or mono base.
