Have you ever wondered what it would be like to fashion a wig of varying styles and what the textures would feel like? This is the exact specialty that is practiced and implemented at Hair Enhancements of Pittsburgh. The process of creating personalized wigs is so intricate that one is treated to an emotional and transformative experience.

The creation of wigs is like a form of art. The wigs are typically purchased due to a variety of reasons. These can include complications from autoimmune disorders, cancer patients, and alopecia (spot baldness) among other challenges a person might face when hair loss is presented to them.

The types of wigs offered are synthetic and human hair wigs, which allows for various options for a client to choose from, that are custom tailored to their liking. Baldé only carries and offers the most high end products that are exactly what each person wants. Kelsie Baldé, the owner of Hair Enhancements of Pittsburgh, and her team of specialists work to personalize the wigs based on each unique person. The process begins by bringing in the client for a consultation appointment before they make the wig. All the rooms are private and all clients are listened to one on one. The client’s needs are individualized based on their situation. At Hair Enhancements of Pittsburgh they realize this and do what they can to satisfy the client. 

Baldé has thirteen years of experience in hair care. Due to her years in the industry she has heard multiple moving stories. Baldé states, “When someone is sitting in my chair and they have no hair, for the majority of people it is like they are sitting there naked.” Baldé also says that, “in the hairstyling world you have to have the ability to talk, but in our industry you have to have a compassionate ear, the ability to meet someone where they are at.” 

Many clients have written on their personal involvement with receiving services from Hair Enhancements of Pittsburgh. Reviews of deeply personal, heartfelt and meaningful messages have been conversed through reviews. On the website www.hairenhancements.net clients discuss hardships they have endured such as chemotherapy, trichotillomania (known as the hair pulling disorder), alopecia, and more. When taking the time to read through how each person was positively effected from the work that some may perceive as “just a wig” can make, we see the power of human connection with one another. Baldé feels genuine purpose in assisting others when it comes to hair care through creating beautiful, one of a kind pieces. Baldé states that, “hair actually affects us at a deep level, it is so much more than just hair for people. Ultimately, I am blessed that I get to do this everyday because I recognize this is not the norm.” 

One area that Baldé and her staff emphasizes as super important is that of education! They are very aware that many questions surround the topic of wigs and the proper care of them. During my interview with Baldé, she was kind enough to educate me on the topic of varying techniques such as a hair piece and hair venting repair. When a person decides to apply a hair piece this is an addition onto the head to fill in thinning hair areas. The hair pieces are made out of different materials and fabrics. This can be a great option as a confidence booster for so many! As Lisa (a client who left an uplifting review) put it, “Among all of the changes, the treatment caused me to lose my hair. I told myself ‘it’s just hair,’ but I found that by losing my hair I lost part of my identity and my confidence. Going to Hair Enhancements gave me back some of what I felt I lost and restored some control for me.”

Hair venting repair is a very delicate process which requires a significant amount of time and patience. This is where the process of damage to a wig is going to be implemented. The repairer must practice with certain tools such as a hook and needles. There are also several methods of hair ventilation that can be practiced, these include: hair injection, latch hook, french drawn, v-looping, single knots, and double knots. Empowering others to bring about a sense of worth within themselves is an incredibly honorable high calling, and one in which Baldé feels complete passion for. “I love seeing people looking in the mirror and springing back to life,” stated Baldé. Focusing on the daily interactions and the future of her company is where Baldé is setting her sights. There are plans to build the business even more through possibly adding virtual consultations and offering the service of selling human hair wigs and delivering them right to the client’s house. Whatever unfolds in the future for Hair Enhancements of Pittsburgh their clients can be sure that Baldé and staff will always prioritize them first!
