About the solution
“Losing my hair was the most upsetting part of my cancer treatment, but the challenge of disguising it changed my life in ways I never imagined. During chemo, I learned to wrap my head with scarves to look like fabulous accessories, not just a quick way to hide hair loss. The resulting compliments boosted my self-esteem during a time when I was afraid of losing my identity”, the inventor said.
All of this inspired Laurie to develop a new product.
“I created an easy-to-wear design to share that energizing experience with other women, Titillating Turbans® are timeless accessories with endless possibilities. Each piece can be styled to suit your mood, from business chic or Bohemian casual to elegant evening wear. I welcome requests from women who want to feel beautiful, no matter what their health challenge. My clients include not only women with hair loss, but those with head injuries and even seizure conditions that require a protective helmet”, Laurie concluded.
The turbans are available for women and men.
