Craftsmanship & Artistry — Dignity & Beauty

While some of our clients wear our hair additions as part of their wardrobe or for special occasions, we understand that many of those who come to us are struggling with a problem that is wearing away at their beauty, their self-image, and their relationships with others. To all of you we promise that whether we are enhancing or restoring, here at Follea our greatest hope and desire is that our creations will allow you to

realize the beauty you envision.

Today the options available in non-surgical hair replacement are as varied as the needs and desires of our clientele. Follea fills the whole range of added hair solutions with consummate artistry: from masterwork wigs, Topettes™, and hair extensions, to falls, pony tails, chignons, and integrations. In designing and manufacturing these we refuse to stop anywhere short of rapturous beauty and total invisibility.

SOLUTIONS > FOR FINE OR THIN HAIR

Your hair is fine, naturally thin or sparse, it's lying flat on your head, and you want to add volume and maybe even length.

Follea can recommend two effective solutions to your fine or thin hair problem:

Topettes™

Follea Topette™ hair pieces are easy to wear, light, and can not only add volume and length to your hair, but can help protect your hair when your job or lifestyle demands frequent styling. Follea's color perfect matching and careful styling can blend our Topettes™ in with your own hair completely and naturally.

We design both permanent and daily wear versions of our topettes and while we know that permanent attachment has its appeal, having several daily wear Topettes™ not only allows you to change your look in an instant, but ensures that you're never without one when the other is washed.

» Visit our Hair Pieces page.

Hair Extensions

Add volume and length with invisible added hair: Follea hair extensions. Follea manufactures weft, bond, I-tipped, and poly-strip extensions in all of our hair grades. Extensions a perfectly suited for fashion, special occasions, or for increasing the volume and density of fine or thin hair.

For striking chignons, vibrant highlights, totally natural looking volume with Nature's Most Beautiful Hair™ contact your stylist or Follea atelier today.

We caution you that thin, baby fine hair is much more susceptible to damage and hair additions should be carefully considered for the long term effect they'll have on your hair. As a manufacturer, we can make no claims about how our products will be installed, so we suggest you carefully choose a reputable stylist or hair replacement specialist to add the volume and length that you desire, with special consideration given beforehand to the strength of your hair.

It can never be said enough that the most important part of getting great extensions is choosing a great technician. It takes knowledge, patience, and a delicate touch to install invisible extensions, and to do so without damaging your hair.




SOLUTIONS > FOR WOMEN'S HAIR LOSS

Introduction

Here, we believe, we've named the problem that most of our customers are struggling with. It comes in varying stages of pattern hair loss, confined or patchy hair loss, total hair loss, or general hair thinning. Some of these are common after menopause, pregnancy, injury, surgery, cancer treatment and other traumatic events. Others may be caused by the immune disorder alopecia, by medication, by aging itself, or by styling and hair treatments that have caused irreparable stress to the hair and follicles. We assume that before coming here you have already been to a dermatologist, have looked through the literature on the changes you are experiencing, have been to some of the many websites that address these problems, and have talked about it with friends. So we're not writing here to inform you about your problem, but instead to assure you that we are being informed by you. We want you to know that we understand the strain and hurt that can be suffered when a woman loses her hair – and more than anything else, we want you to feel beautiful again.

We are listening:

"I want my hair back."
"I don't want it to fall off."
"I don't want anyone to know I'm wearing it."
"I want to look beautiful again."
"I don't want to spend all day taking care of it."
"I want to forget I'm wearing it."
"Why did this happen to me?"

Solutions for women's hair loss

All of our solutions begin with premium hair and high quality replacement systems. But that's not all, we bring both incomparable color matching and the largest stock of human hair in its natural formation that you can find, guaranteeing that we can match almost any European hair formation in its natural texture, and ensuring that you don't have to worry about your added hair losing its perm. If you have time and interest, we also have a few things about the added hair systems we suggest for common hair loss problems. Read on.

Telogen Effluvium

As cases of Telogen Effluvium are often non-permanent we may suggest looking at our more economical all machine made or handmade top/machine made back wigs. Well ventilated and air light, made with beautiful Follea European hair, and voted #1 by hair replacement professionals, our machine made wigs look no different from our hand tied wigs at a glance, and some added hair wearers have even insisted that they are more comfortable. Follea Topettes™ can cover a widening hairline and add the top volume you've lost, and later as your hair returns they can cover-up brushy regrowth until your own hair is long enough for styling.

Female Pattern Baldness/Androgenic Alopecia

If you have lost density but still have strong healthy hair in most areas you may not want to cover your own hair. Hair integration systems allow you to pull your own hair through a mesh with custom sized openings that have been sized to add only as much hair as you need. If necessary hair integrations can also be also designed with solid sections, such as parts, that can cover exceedingly thin or bald areas. Follea integrations, or Volumizers™ as we call them, can be designed in any size or configuration that you need depending on your application method and tastes. Most importantly, in contrast to hair extensions, hair integrations have the advantage of sitting across the top of your head thereby eliminating the risk of traction alopecia.

When done properly a hair integration unit can blend completely into your own hair and be forgotten--but in exchange for this you must be prepared for longer application time and regular maintenance.

For those clients who have very thin or no hair on top while retaining some stronger, healthier hair away from the front hairline and crown hair we also can suggest stock and custom size Topettes™ for a simple and convenient hair solution. These are light, thin hairpieces that can be used for daily wear or bonding.

For some, loss has exceeded the scope of integration and partial hair pieces so we suggest Follea's long lasting and beautifully constructed masterwork wigs. We caution you not to be confused by industry jargon like "hair system" or "full cranial prosthetic": Follea's artful and lovingly made wigs are not only born of a heritage craft, but are at the forefront of the industry in quality, technology, and beauty.

Alopecia Areata

Any size and shape is possible. Permanent or semi-permanent attachments are available. Our strength here is our long time experience with total customization: color matching, texture matching, and custom base design. To ensure that your hair addition holds its color and form, Follea can match most European colors and formations with virgin Russian hair.

We give careful consideration to the normal active lifestyles that our alopecia areata customers enjoy, and we try to manage compromises in our designs so that our customers don't have to make compromises in their lifestyle.

Alopecia Totalis (& Universalis)

In the last year Follea R&D has leapt forward in designing caps that are both comfortable and undetectable. Coated lace, newer softer poly tabs for adhesion, soft self gripping silicone perimeter, Swiss spandex, monofilament, and Chinese silk linings: all of these to bring nothing but comfort to your sensitive skin. And we now feature several caps that are designed specifically for total hair loss including Follea's amazing Gripper™ cap: no glue, no slip, easy to put on, easy to take off.

Added to this, our 47 color ring, all in natural European colors, allows us to closely match almost any radiant color you want without the expense of custom coloring fees, and our huge inventory of virgin European hair as well as the finest hair from around the world allows us to offer almost any texture in its natural form.

Traction Alopecia

We hope that you already know how imperative it is for you to stop wearing wefts, corn rows, extensions, tight pony tails, or doing whatever it is that is causing your condition, and equally imperative that you do not then move on to other additions that may also continue to damage your hair.

We suggest looking at Follea Volumizers™ (our hair integration units) or Topettes™ (our top pieces). Volumizers ™ and Topettes™, when applied by a skilled hair replacement professional or under their guidance, do not put an excessive amount of tension on your hair.

Hair Stress / Traumatic Alopecia

If you haven't already, please try to stop using re-shapers, perm chemicals, bleaches and dyes, hot curlers and flat irons—or whatever it is that is causing your hair loss. Daily stressful styling is just not good for your hair.

Because of this, it is more and more common today for people in the public eye, such as television broadcasters, politicians, or other celebrities, to use hair pieces such as Follea Topettes™ to add a layer of protection to their hair to reduce the damage caused by repeated stressful hair modeling.

If your hair is already damaged you may still be able to protect it from further damage using a Topette™, or you may also want to consider a full wig. Please consult a dermatologist or hair replacement specialist any time damage is resulting in noticeable hair loss to ensure that you choose a solution which will not aggravate your problem.

Chemotherapy, Radiation Therapy

First, if you are browsing our pages as you face cancer treatment we want to extend to you our warmest sympathy and sincere support for the difficult times you are experiencing. We do not want your loss of hair to divert you from your absolute priority: getting everything you can from your treatment and being well again. We at Follea do everything we can to make sure your hair looks natural, and that it is the last thing you need to worry about.

Some people who receive cancer treatment have adverse reactions to synthetic wigs. Rest assured that we use only natural human hair in our products and only the highest quality, softest, and most comfortable base materials, doing so to ensure that our wigs are as easy to maintain and as comfortable to wear as possible.

Shorter hairstyles will probably ease the trouble of wearing a wig until your hair returns, and we stock a number of styles in shorter hair so you don't have to wait.

We can also recreate your hair as it is before treatment, perfectly matching your hair color and form, and tying it to the finest and lightest construction materials and linings available from Switzerland today.

If you're interested in hearing what we can do for hair loss problems not on this list, please contact us today and we'll make every effort to match you with a hair solution.




SOLUTIONS > FASHION—HAIR COUTURE

Fashion - Hair Couture

Follea was conceived to provide added hair not just as solutions to ordinary hair woes but also as custom tailored fashion accessories. "Hair couture" as we have envisioned it is the creation of exclusive custom fitted hair additions made to order for a specific customer from high quality hair and high-quality fabrics, all hand ventilated and sewn with extreme attention to detail and finish.

Change your look in an instant

Hair couture is for the woman who wants to change her look in an instant, from day to night, and work to play. Topettes™, ponytails, fringes and falls: these can all be custom made to your order and clipped in for a quick change of look. Or if more permanent volume and length suits you, then your choice may be Follea extensions.

For fashion solutions today there is no better source than Follea, the creators of Hair Couture and Nature's Most Beautiful Hair™




SOLUTIONS > SPECIAL OCCASIONS

An extraordinary day...

It may be a day filled with romance and excitement: a senior prom or your wedding - or it may be for purely practical purposes: going to a photographer or applying for a job. For prom hairstyles, wedding hairstyles, or just plain amazing hairstyles, you'll want perfect hair, and we can promise not only perfect color and texture matching but the most beautiful and luxurious added hair produced today.

You want bangs but don't want to cut your hair, you aspire to an impossible ponytail, you fancy an architectural chignon, you crave instant highlights and volume, or maybe you hunger for lady Godiva length. Impossible? Never. Follea fringes, Topettes™, ponytails, and extensions can be used to create these and more: prom hairstyles, wedding hairstyles, any hairstyles.




PRODUCTS > FOLLEA HAIR

"Only Follea can offer such exquisite real human hair in all its natural formations by keeping a huge stock of virgin European hair. From natural body to natural curl, we can bring you products that never lose their pleasing curves." – Daniel Hafid, founder and CEO of Follea

Our Hair

Our inspiration begins with our hair: its animate lightness and delicate textures, the play of shimmering radiance with subtle hue and luminous reflection. And how we long to show you everything about our wellspring and the proprietary methods we implement to keep the highest standards in the industry—yet we can't. After all, a master artisan must always keep a few secrets. But there are always questions asked….

"What makes our hair different?"

Our quality starts at the source: and it's more than just going to Russia and its former republics to get our hair, but that we reserve the highest grades our suppliers can find. And most importantly, we buy only single bound ponytails, ensuring that cuticle runs in the same direction throughout—we use no hair from the brush, we use no hair from the floor.

After cutting, our hair is shipped directly to us, sorted only by us, and processed only by us. We do no outsourcing whatsoever.

Thus every strand you find in our finished work has been checked, sorted, and processed only by perfectionists nonpareil—and every step of sorting, cleaning, lightening, and coloring is done according to our own unique formulas. While vat processing of hair has become an industry standard, we at Follea continue to hand process all grades of our hair ponytail by ponytail, ensuring that every single strand retains its unique individual essence, because everyone's hair is different.




PRODUCTS > OUR HAIR PIECES

In hair pieces and small additions Follea focuses on custom work and individual needs, not on generic solutions. The diversity and opportunity that hair pieces can bring for new styles and looks is one of the great secrets of hair styling today.

Hair pieces are by far the greatest showcase of Follea's diversity and potential.

+Follea Topettes™

Hair piece, topper, TopHair, top piece, we've heard all of these names and more – here at Follea we call ours Topettes™ and we've made them better. Topettes™ are the most easily applied of any hair addition and look totally natural when properly styled.

Standard Follea Topettes™ range from 4 ½ by 5 inches up to 6 by 7 ½ and are used to add hair to the top of the head between the front hairline and the crown. While some stylists use them just to add volume and density on the top of the head, others use them to protect the hair from frequent styling or to enhance thinning hair. One thing is certain, they are a lot more useful and common that most people realize.

Visit our Topette & Fringe Gallery.

+Fringes

A top front piece, or fringe, adds hair in the front and bangs. They are well suited to a quick change of style if you want bangs but don't have them, and you don't want to cut your hair.

Visit our Topette & Fringe Gallery.

+Falls

We mostly see orders for two kinds of falls: hat falls, and ¾ falls.

Hat falls have no hair on top because they are designed, obviously, to wear under a hat. They back of a hat fall is usually a machine made back and is used to enhance the length and volume of the back hair.

¾ falls are essentially ¾ of a wig. By leaving the natural hairline exposed all the way around the head they have the advantage of producing a totally natural look. With perfect color and texture matching, and properly styled, they blend in totally with your own hair.

+Ponytails

For those not interested in using weft hair extensions to enhance a pony tail Follea can make a small spandex base that can be tied around your own ponytail to add significant length and volume.




PRODUCTS > HAIR INTEGRATIONS

Hair Integrations

Hair integrations are the state of the art in hair addition. They can add both volume and length without covering of damaging your own hair and are completely and totally undetectable. Hair integration can stand up to a busy and active lifestyle and if taken care of, a good integration matrix can last over a year. With hair integrations Follea produces only according to individual needs and custom specifications. We do not use generic solutions.

What exactly are hair integrations?

They are neither top hair pieces nor weft hair extensions, but a combination of the two. All integrations use a single piece in the form of a matrix of ventilated or wefted strips which form a grid or hexagonal net. Through this net you own hair can be pulled and can grow naturally. Some hair integrations, when top hair loss necessitates it, are also made with a meticulously ventilated part.

Hair integrations are designed with professional application in mind-except for the most simple designs they are not well suited to daily application-and we recommend that you choose your hair replacement specialist carefully because monthly adjustment will usually be needed to keep your integration properly maintained.

The great appeal of hair integrations is that they are precisely matched to your own hair color and texture and they neither hide nor inhibit the growth of your own hair-but rather compliment and add to what you already have.




PRODUCTS > OUR WIGS

Follea built its foundations on human hair wigs and they remain our greatest passion, and with the release of each successive design we see ourselves opening a new chapter on design, beauty and luxury, and not just for Follea, but for the whole industry.

The elements of great wigs

Great Hair

We believe in starting all of our designs with beautiful hair, but that's just one part of our great wigs and only one reason to buy from Follea, there are still four more.

Natural Density

Getting density right is a continual labor of finding gifted workers and mentoring them into gifted artisans. And it's not just that hand tying hair is difficult work, but that we expect our ventilators to appreciate natural movement and hair density—after all, they have to recreate it.

Undetectable Hairlines

Verisimilitude means something looks real. And at the front hairline of all wigs verisimilitude is critical. Yes, there's inevitably a compromise between fragility and realism but we hope we have accommodated both: on one hand by designing lace front wigs with replaceable fronts, and on the other by developing a thin and natural looking standard front.

Realistic Parts

We searched to the ends of the earth for natural looking skin tone materials for our wigs. We experimented with all manner of deceptive fabrics and today Follea's French parts set the industry standard for natural looking parts.

Comfort

Itchy, pokey, sweaty, bumpy. Scratching, rubbing, pinching, scraping, sticking, squeezing. Follea R&D has come up against all of these at one point or another. Fix one wig problem, create another, fix the next problem, and while it goes on and on we have beaten them all one way or another. Ultimately there are always compromises and choices when it comes to wig comfort and we pride ourselves on balance and options: and for our part we always try to find the comfortable balance between problems, and for you we offer a score of choices in construction.

These five elements

These five elements then are the ingredients for Follea wigs, and these standards will, we hope, convince you of the consummate value of our work. We invite you to visit a Follea Atelier and see one for yourself.





PRODUCTS>THE FOLLEA GRIPPER WIG

The Quest for Beautiful Hair was Just the Start

Follea Gripper

It had to be secure, light, breathable, comfortable and natural,
ALL without tape or glue!

Read about the design and development of the Follea Gripper

At Follea we have had the pleasure of meeting many accomplished, smart and beautiful women (as well as men and children) who have little or no hair of their own, who we are prvilieged to count as our valued customers. Some of them are Hair Replacement Specialist business owners themselves, out there helping "alopecians" overcome the challenge of living without hair in the most beautiful and natural way.

The "Gripper Quest" started nearly 3 years ago when we learned that five of our alopecian hair salon partners were all wearing Follea for its exceptional hair quality, and that they had in turn introduced our wigs to their alopecian customers. These special Follea wearers were suffering hair loss from alopecia areata, alopecia totalis, or alopecia universalis. Areata, for those who don't know, is a patchy hair loss on the head. Totalis leaves the afflicted person with no hair at all on head, and universalis with no hair anywhere on the body. Among our alopecians we also met a salon owner's young daughter, dealing with the stresses of hair loss at a young and active age--and as we have moved forward with the project more and more of our professional customers have come forward and explained that they themselves are alopecian Follea wearers.

For us this became a very personal type of product research. We were met with all kinds of appeals, pleas, requests, and suggestions, and so with great cause and tremendous effort we replied with changes and innovation, with new design and fit, and with a series of prototype Gripper caps that were comfortable, secure, light, breathable, natural, beautiful, and affortable. This, it became clear, was the next generation of wig for women with no hair.

And now our alopecian wearers, both our professional salon owners themselves and their wonderful customers who participated in the research and development have all given the new "Gripper Cool™"—Follea's new in-stock Gripper™ product line—their emphatic blessing.

Read B.J Cobb's Gripper Wig Testimonial

Dear Follea,
I want to thank you for what you are doing – changing lives one hairpiece at a time.
I'm sixty-one and have worn hairpieces for over fifty years. I spent the first twelve years mostly in the hospital and have had a total of twenty-five surgeries on my head. The surgeries left me with no hair and lots of scars and dents. I started wearing wigs at ten years old.
It was very difficult emotionally to wear wigs at such a young age, kids not understanding and trying to pull them off for fun. In addition the wigs back then were simply horrible. I have tried any and all wigs thru out the years. The first forty years I had a constant headache every day that I just learnedto live with. Ten years ago I started wearing custom made, very expensive wigs but for once in my life the headaches went away. These custom wigs were beautiful but not without fault and I always looked around for something that might work better.
About a year and a half ago my main custom wig got a tear in the side of it. I had heard of the Vacuum wigs and decided to give them a try because I had seen some pictures on the Internet and they looked nice. I ordered one and waited about six months in anticipation of it arriving. When it arrived, I cried. The hair was so heavy and dense and very kinky, it was a mess. The base was double the thickness it should have been. Oh my goodness, it was so hot. After much discussion the factory said they would remake the unit. About seven months later it arrived. This time they made the base about an inch back from my hairline and it would simply fall off my head. The quality of the hair was not what I wanted. In desperation I went out and purchased a high quality synthetic wig and the headaches came roaring back. Life was not good.
Then a few months ago I heard about Follea and purchased two units. I am in love. I can say without a doubt the Follea Gripper Cool is the best hairpiece I have ever worn. That's fifty years and counting!
The Gripper Cool fits my head great – No headaches! The construction of the base keeps me cool and that is a blessing in this Texas summer heat. The hair is beautiful. I appreciate the fact that you make your units with the right amount of hair so they don't look wiggy. I'm used to waiting 6-8 months to receive a custom piece and am delighted to get yours in such a short time frame. I know that maybe I shouldn't but I take naps in mine and they still look just fine. I am amazed how the unit clings to my head and I don't worry at all about it coming off. I have received so many complements since I started wearing the Gripper Cool.
Thank you Follea from the bottom of my heart, you have made my life so much better.

Gripper Product Description

Gripper-2 Cool™

The Gripper-2 Cool features a hand-tied lace top, with small open lace-front. We chose to incorporate a soft-lined, close-wefted back that passes the "hairdryer test". That is, if you blow a hairdryer (or a strong wind) on the back of your head, you don't see the wefts. In order to accomplish this we have almost doubled the density in the back top and side sections just below the crown, in comparison to the original Gripper Cool. The advantages of this design include allowing more air to pass through to the scalp, to keep the wearer cool, as well as letting the style lay closer to the back of the head. It also vastly reduces the risk of hair inverting through the cap compared to an all hand-tied back.

However, if you prefer, there are all-hand-tied choices available at a higher price (the Gripper Luxe). We already have the Gripper-2 Cool in stock or on order in 4 designs and 3 cap sizes: We can also custom size XXS and smaller for children.

Gripper-2 Sport™

The extraordinary new Gripper-2 Sport has more "grippiness" and a closed lace front. Gripper-2 Sport is designed for professional or amateur athletes who still want that natural hairline. Gripper-2 Sport is made only to order.

Hand Processed European Hair

Gripper-2 Cool and Sport are made with Follea's famous high quality European hair (all double-drawn pony tail hair) that we gently process in house to consistently meet our color-ring specifications and high quality control standards. Grippers are currently available in our 10 most popular TruLife™ color blends.

No Tape, No Glue

The Gripper series grips without tape or glue. Have a look and you'll find many independent video testimonials on YouTube and other websites that demonstrate the secure hold and amazing movement of the Follea Gripper.

ABOUT US > OUR PHILOSOPHY

Your Desire - Our Aspiration

Women love to play, reinvent themselves, switch personalities. Mysterious or exuberant, reserved or sexy, natural or sophisticated. Having fun is a way of life. Being different, a game.

Most of all, every woman wants to look beautiful, feel desirable and radiate confidence. That's why nature gave her beautiful hair to tell the world who she is, or who she wants to be.

Since the dawn of time hair has been every woman's delight and every man's obsession. Long hair, short hair; hair that's formally styled or hair that flows free; every style tells a personal story. And as day turns to evening, style follows the shadows, subtly morphing from outgoing to intimate.

Every woman is a natural artist. Her hair is her canvas. Straight or curly, long or short, blond or brunette: the only limit is her imagination. And today this landscape has been expanded. A new generation of hair creations is carrying women into new and beautiful territory. The company behind these fabulous designs? Follea.

Daniel Hafid

CEO and Founder of Follea




ABOUT US > OUR HISTORY

Follea begins with Daniel Hafid.

Educated in Europe, multilingual, and himself the son of a renowned hair entrepreneur, Daniel has earned his business savvy and expertise from the warehouses to the executive offices of the hair industry.

After joining his father in the building and shaping of René of Paris, Daniel spent more than a decade manufacturing hair additions for the same top echelon companies he now stands among. In 1999 Daniel moved his work to China, began mentoring a small circle of artisans, and in 2004 completed the construction of a stunning 200,000 square foot award winning production center where now more than 600 artisans craft the most elegant hair additions attainable today.

This is more than just history; this is substance. In bringing you the select we offer not only the vibrancy and dynamic creativity of youth but also the lifetime experience and sophistication of a heritage craft.

And Follea's history is still being written. Spearheaded by genius Michael Leigh in the spring of 2008, Follea America opened in Beverly Hills, a location befitting the vanguard of hair couture. In September of 2008 Follea Germany opened its doors, and judging from our uninterrupted growth more sales centers will certainly be following.

For us this means complete control of our brand from production all the way through to final sales. For you this means comprehensive customer service and an iron clad guarantee, all behind an unparalleled product.

This is Follea.




ABOUT US > MISSION AND VISION

Mission & Vision Statements

Our vision is to be the most trusted authority on added hair solutions worldwide. Our mission is to realize beauty: to fashion the imagined, to recreate the lost, and to enhance the essential, doing so according to the highest standards of our craft.




ABOUT US > FOLLEA CAMPUS VIDEO

Follea Campus

Follea's art is steeped in traditions nourished by the old-fashioned values and beauty of Europe. Son of the renowned René Hafid, Follea's creator Daniel Hafid is a second generation entrepreneur in the hair industry and has breathed hair, beauty, and fashion for his entire life.

But we join this story in the vibrant town of Weihai, overlooking China's shimmering yellow sea in a stateof-the-art production center. It is here that Daniel has brought together not just youth and energy, but people of extraordinary talent and expertise. In our corridors you will find brilliant artisans, canny researchers, inventive designers, and savvy technicians - all following in Daniel's footsteps at the forefront of the fashion industry.

Here we don't just make wigs. We don't just manufacture hair additions.

We create, we nurture and we give new life to the most radiant and carefully chosen human hair that can be found in today's hair markets.

Our hair is treated with reverence: selected and sorted only by perfectionists gifted with the most delicate touch; lightened and colored gradually to preserve its subtlety and nuance by precision colorists; and tied strand by strand in a fusion of talented artistry and exacting science by the most nimble of artisans.

Here at Follea, while breathing life into our creations according to Western experience, traditions, and innovations, our craftspeople both live and work together in the tradition of Asia. Ours is not just a factory but a campus. And through our living we bring teamwork, shared vision, shared ideas, and a sense of family. After all, our craft, more than any other today, is one that can only be achieved by a community.

And with this, for now, we close the book on this part of our story.

Hair Replacement by Janet in San Carlos, CA

One look at Follea's beautiful hair and we were sold. From the lightness of the pieces and the silky texture of the hair to the luxurious colors, there is no better European hair line on the market. Our alopecia and chemotherapy clients love the comfort of the cap and delight in how realistic the piece looks while they are wearing it. I highly recommend Follea to anyone interested in the highest quality pieces, and I can't imagine my shop without it. I might add that the people we've met and worked with at Follea are the best, most knowledgeable and professional in the Hair Replacement field. We are proud to be part of the Follea Family.

Wow! Follea you have raised the bar for women's human hair wigs in a big way. I was skeptical when I originally saw your claim of "Nature's most beautiful hair", knowing that the quality of human hair has been less than perfect, because of the drain on the supply, due to programs and hair extensions. I was amazed when I felt the first sample wig. It looked and felt extremely soft and natural. When we tried it on one of our most discriminating clients she loved it and purchased one that day. The density is perfect, the colors have a brilliant luster and shine, the styles are high fashion and trend setting, and the caps are comfortable and light. It all comes together for the most natural human hair wig. They are more expensive but the value is definitely worth it. They sell themselves. You've done a great job.

Wearing the best hair on the planet has really elevated my client's self-confidence. Gone are the worries of the past with tangling and matting. The swing and movement of the hair is remarkably fluid. When styled, Follea wigs hold a curl beautifully. I found them very easy to sell – they sell themselves. I recommend carrying the Lifestyle and L'Origine collection and displaying them prominently at your station. Being one of the first in my area to have a Follea Collection has given my studio a strong competitive edge and attracted a wide age range of new clients. I found the Follea Staff to be professional, courteous and generous.

When I first heard Follea's slogan, "Nature's most beautiful hair", I was skeptical. In today's market finding quality European hair is a difficult task. Upon receiving my first look at Follea's hair quality, I was astounded by the lightness, luster, and movement of the hair. Follea's hair and color quality are some of the best on the market. I highly recommend this product to anyone looking for excellence.

Spot on Daniel! After 25 plus years in the hair replacement business I am so delighted someone has taken the time and effort to bring a really exciting product to the market. You and your staff have taken my business to a new level. The hair speaks for itself, it is simply "the best" in quality as well as color. The care that is reflected throughout the entire process, from the accumulation of the hair, to the honor and respect afforded your employees, is a tribute to your genuine commitment to excellence. Thank you for delivering on a truly ambitious vision, as well as a huge contribution to our industry.
