My Hair Story
Let me start by saying, I've never liked my hair. Even before experiencing hair loss, my hair was very fine, stick straight, always on the thinner side, but I always had 'enough'.
In my 20's was the best my own hair ever looked, it was the longest I was ever able to grow it. Then...I put hair extensions in for my wedding and caused a whole lot of damage. But, my hair did eventually recover from that.
My early 30's was when I first noticed a change in my hair. After going off birth control, I was diangosed with Hashimoto's. I spent the next four years trying to get pregnant and my hormones were all over the place. So, I just kept my hair short to disguise the thinning.
Then, when I finally got pregnant I had 9 months of the most beautiful, healthy, shiny hair (thanks pregnancy!). But then...came the post-partum hair shed.
I don't think I had even recovered from my post-partum hair loss when I then had my first round of Telogen Effluvium. This is when my hair started falling out in clumps. I went to a trichologist and dermatologist who diagnosed me with Androgenic Alopecia. No matter what I did my hair just kept getting thinner and thinner.
I was so consumed by my hair loss. When I finally took the plunge to wear wigs, I never, ever looked back. Wearing wigs has completely changed my life.
My Favourite Pieces
Looking for a similar colour to my pieces?
All of Lusta's gorgeous wigs and topper are one-off, unique creations.
I've teamed up with Lusta to offer a limited collection of pieces inspired by my favourite Lusta toppers and wigs!
Luxe Wigs
My Luxe Wig is PHENOMENAL! I absolutely love the lower-density of this piece, it feels so light-weight to wear. This wig features a lace-top with lace-front making it look SUPER realistic. No body can tell this isn't growing out of my head.
Lace-Front Wigs
I’m completely obsessed with my Lace Front Wig! The hair washes beautifully and is easy to style. The hair line, part line and transition from silk to lace is incredibly realistic. And the custom balayage color is absolutely stunning!
Toppers
Although I tend to reach for my wigs a bit more, I still love my topper! Unlike wigs, toppers are designed to blend with your own hair. They're an incredible choice for women who still want to see some of their own hair so that the piece feels more like 'them'. Toppers are super light-weight and easy to wear.
GETTING STARTED
The hair world can seem super overwhelming. Let's break it down.
The first thing is to decide between a topper or wig. Most women can wear a topper. A topper is blended with your own hair line and you wear your hair out with a topper. Wigs, on the other hand, can be worn by anyone and everyone. Wigs cover your hair and you don't need to blend your own hair line.

Next you'll think about colour. Lusta is always there to help with colour matching if you want to match the piece to your own hair- or can create a piece for you based on inspiration photos.

Then, we'll consider length. If you're a shopping for a topper, you'll want to choose a piece which is the length of your hair + 2 inches. This allows for your own hair growing. If you're shopping for a wig you can choose whatever length you like!

Finally, cap size. For toppers, the size of your head doesn't matter. Almost anyone can wear any topper cap size! The only exception to this is if you have a extra sensitive or bald spots where you can clip into. For wigs, your head size DOES matter. You can follow THIS video for measuring for wig size.

Why are human hair pieces so expensive?!
There are so many factors which go into the price of a topper or wig. You'll find pieces online from $10-$10,000.
At Lusta, all their pieces are made with 100% highest quality, remy human hair. This hair is silky soft and will maintain its gorgeousness for YEARS.
Each piece is sewn together by hand (yep, every hair strand is hand-sewn onto the cap), which can take upwards of 80 hours per piece.
Lusta's pieces are also hand-coloured by expert stylists in Australia.
The design of Lusta's pieces means they are super secure, comfortable and able to be loved for years and years.

Lusta is always there via DM or email to answer questions and chat back and forth to find the right piece for you.

What is Lusta's returns policy?
Lusta has a seriously epic returns policy.
Most high-quality companies charge restocking fees and postage fees to return a piece. They also have super short returns periods, usually around 24-48 hours.
Lusta offers FREE returns to all first-time customers. This means if the piece isn't right for you, for any reason, you can return the piece for a FULL refund. No restocking fees. No shipping fees. Plus, you have FIVE days to decide whether the piece is right for you. Epic.
Final Words of Advice
Give yourself grace. Hair loss is an incredibly difficult thing to go through and you need to allow yourself the space to grieve. Adjusting to the world of toppers and wigs can be daunting at first, but I promise that once you lean into the hair-wearing life you're going to feel incredible.
