Custom Wig Caps: Because One Size Doesn’t Fit All
As the owner of Emily Taylor Wigs, I’ve had the privilege of helping so many women regain their confidence through beautifully crafted wigs. And over the years, I’ve heard a common concern from many of my customers—wig caps just don’t fit everyone the same way. Most wigs on the market come in a standard size with an adjustable strap, but let’s be honest—that doesn’t work for everyone. Some women find that their wigs are too loose, causing them to slip throughout the day, while others struggle with caps that feel too tight and uncomfortable. Your wig should feel secure, natural, and comfortable—not like something you have to constantly adjust or worry about. That’s why I offer custom cap sizing based on your measurements. Whether you need a smaller cap for a snug, secure fit or a larger cap for more comfort, I can tailor the size to better suit your needs.

The Truth About Postpartum Hair Loss: How to Regrow Your Hair
Motherhood is a beautiful journey, but let’s be honest—postpartum hair loss is one of those surprises nobody warns you about. One day, you’re rocking that thick, luscious pregnancy hair, and the next, you’re shedding what feels like handfuls in the shower. If this sounds familiar, don’t panic. Postpartum hair loss is completely normal, temporary, and something you can manage. In today’s episode, we’re diving deep into why it happens, how long it lasts, and, most importantly, what you can do to support hair regrowth and feel confident again. Why Does Postpartum Hair Loss Happen? During pregnancy, your hair enters a prolonged growth phase due to increased estrogen levels. This is why many women experience fuller, shinier hair while expecting. But after childbirth, your hormones shift dramatically. As estrogen levels drop back to normal, all the hair that was "paused" in the growth cycle starts to shed at once. This phase, known as telogen effluvium, typically begins around 2-4 months postpartum and can last up to a year. The good news? This is temporary. Your hair isn’t falling out permanently—it’s just returning to its natural cycle. How Long Does It Last? For most women, postpartum shedding peaks around 4-6 months and gradually slows down. By 9-12 months postpartum, your hair should start feeling more like "you" again. However, if you notice excessive thinning beyond a year, it might be worth checking for underlying causes like nutrient deficiencies, thyroid imbalances, or stress-related hair loss. How to Regrow Your Hair After Pregnancy While you can’t stop postpartum hair loss entirely, you can support healthier, stronger regrowth. Here’s how: 1. Nourish Your Hair from Within Your body prioritizes essential functions after childbirth, so if you're low on nutrients, hair growth takes a backseat. ✔ Eat a balanced diet – Focus on protein, iron, biotin, and omega-3 fatty acids. Foods like eggs, salmon, nuts, and leafy greens support healthy hair.✔ Keep taking your prenatal vitamins – They help fill nutritional gaps, especially iron, zinc, and vitamin D.✔ Stay hydrated – Dehydration can slow hair growth, so aim for at least 8-10 glasses of water daily. 2. Use Gentle Hair Care Products Your hair is more fragile during this shedding phase, so treat it with care. ✔ Switch to a sulfate-free shampoo – Harsh shampoos can strip natural oils, making hair more prone to breakage.✔ Use a lightweight, strengthening conditioner – Look for ingredients like biotin, keratin, and argan oil to strengthen strands.✔ Avoid tight hairstyles – Ponytails and buns can add tension to already weak hair. Opt for loose styles or silk scrunchies. 3. Try Scalp Massages & Growth Serums A healthy scalp = healthy hair growth. ✔ Massage your scalp daily – Even 5 minutes of gentle scalp massage boosts circulation and stimulates hair follicles.✔ Use rosemary oil or caffeine-infused serums – Studies show these ingredients can encourage regrowth and strengthen hair.✔ Try a silk pillowcase – Reduces friction and helps prevent breakage while you sleep. 4. Be Patient & Kind to Yourself Hair loss can be emotional, especially when you’re already navigating the challenges of new motherhood. Remember: ✔ You are not alone. Postpartum hair loss happens to nearly all moms.✔ This is temporary. Your hair will grow back.✔ You are still beautiful—hair or no hair. If you’re feeling self-conscious, wigs and hair toppers can be a great way to regain confidence while your hair is growing back.

With the right care, patience, and self-love, your hair will recover. In the meantime, focus on nourishing your body, being gentle with your hair, and embracing the beauty of your postpartum journey.
