Medical Wigs & Cranial Prostheses
Comfort, dignity, and confidence — one strand at a time.
Wigs That Support Healing
Hair loss from chemotherapy, alopecia, autoimmune conditions, or scalp trauma can be devastating. At Loving Strands, we understand — because we’ve been there too. That’s why we offer custom medical wigs (also known as cranial prostheses) made with softness, security, and soul in every strand.
Our medical wigs are handcrafted from
real human hair and built for the needs of healing bodies and sensitive scalps. They're lightweight, breathable, insurance-friendly, and designed to help you feel like yourself again.
What Is a Cranial Prosthesis?
A cranial prosthesis is a medical-grade wig designed specifically for individuals experiencing hair loss due to a medical condition or treatment. Many insurance providers will cover all or part of the cost, and we’ll walk you through the paperwork step by step.
You may be eligible if your hair loss is caused by:
- Chemotherapy or radiation
- Alopecia areata or totalis
- Lupus or autoimmune disorders
- Trichotillomania
- Scalp burns or trauma
- Other medically documented conditions
