Wigs for Cancer Patients
Losing your hair during cancer treatment can be one of the most challenging and emotional parts of your journey. At Tammy Lobato Wigs, we understand how deeply personal this experience can be, and we’re here to help you feel comfortable, confident, and supported every step of the way.
Our wigs for cancer patients are designed to restore a sense of normality and self-expression — combining natural appearance, secure fit, and lasting comfort.
Compassionate Guidance and Expert Care
With over 30 years’ experience in wig design and fitting, we provide a private, understanding environment where you can explore your options and find the perfect look. Every consultation is handled with care and confidentiality, allowing you to discuss your needs openly — whether you’re preparing for chemotherapy or currently undergoing treatment.
At Tammy Lobato Wigs we specialise in helping clients navigate hair loss caused by cancer treatments, ensuring every person feels heard, supported, and beautiful.
Private Consultations
We understand that privacy and comfort are essential, especially during such a personal time. All fittings and maintenance sessions are held in a private, welcoming setting where you can relax and feel supported throughout the process.
If you’d like to explore your options or ask any questions before booking, we are always happy to help.
Natural, Lightweight Human Hair Wigs
Our Wig Range includes premium human hair wigs for cancer patients, chosen for their comfort, softness, and natural movement. Each wig can be washed, styled, and treated much like your own hair, helping you feel more like yourself every day.
We also offer synthetic options at our Narre Warren Salon and customised fittings at all of our locations to suit your lifestyle, scalp sensitivity, and individual preferences. Whether you’re after a timeless short style, natural waves, or long layers, we’ll help you find the perfect match.
Tailored Wig Fittings and Ongoing Support
Finding the right wig isn’t just about style — it’s about comfort and confidence. During your consultation, we will:
- Discuss your medical and hair-loss situation in a sensitive, supportive way
- Help you select colours, textures, and lengths that complement your face shape and natural tone
- Adjust and style your wig for a secure, natural fit
- Provide aftercare advice and maintenance tips
Every client leaves knowing how to care for their wig and with the reassurance of ongoing support whenever needed.

Maintenance and Care for Human Hair Wigs
Just like natural hair, human hair wigs need regular care to maintain their look, feel, and longevity. At our salon, we offer professional washing and styling services to keep your wig looking its best. This maintenance can be scheduled monthly or as needed, depending on how often you wear your piece and the style you prefer. Regular maintenance not only helps preserve the condition of the hair but also ensures your wig continues to fit comfortably and look beautifully natural.
For clients who wish to care for their wigs at home, we also provide a complimentary wash and style education session. During this personalised appointment, our expert wig stylists guide you through the correct washing techniques, recommended products, and styling tips tailored to your specific wig. The goal is to give you the confidence to maintain your human hair wig safely and effectively between salon visits — ensuring it stays soft, healthy, and beautifully styled for longer.
Wigs for Kids Going Through Cancer Treatment
Many children undergoing cancer treatment experience temporary hair loss due to chemotherapy. Our wigs for kids with cancer are designed to provide both comfort and confidence during this difficult time.
We use lightweight, breathable cap designs that sit softly on sensitive scalps, allowing children to play, go to school, and participate in daily life with ease. When hair begins to grow back, we can adjust or restyle the wig as needed.
Restoring Confidence Through Care
Hair loss from cancer treatment can be life-changing, but with the right support, you can regain your sense of self. At Tammy Lobato Wigs, our caring, professional approach focuses on more than just hair — it’s about helping you feel confident, comfortable, and seen.
What Our Clients Have to Say
I was 2 years into my hair loss nightmare when I became aware of Tammy Lobato and her bonded replacement hair systems.
My hair loss was so significant that every aspect of my life was impacted and it took me a further 3 years before I finally made my first appointment!
I sit here today and think oh god i wish I had of done it sooner!
What an amazing team of genuine, compassionate and non-judgemental ladies. Ladies who draw on both their personal and professional experiences and understand there are no 2 journeys alike.
The freedom I feel from the weight that lifted off of my shoulders in just 3 months, is incredible... I am now looking forward to and can’t wait to do all things with my daughter that I would never have considered doing even just a few months back!
For anyone who is experiencing any type of hair loss, without any hesitation, i recommend you giving them a call...you won't be disappointed that did!
Kathy King - Thank you note
In February 2021 I was diagnosed with aggressive breast cancer. Having had long hair all my adult life I was very anxious about loosing my hair with the upcoming chemotherapy regime that was planned for me. Fortunately my daughter had researched wigs and had suggested Tammy Lobato wigs in Heidelberg. I’m so glad that she found Tammy Lobato. My initial consult at Tammy’s was sympathetic, respectful reassuring and calming - despite it being a hugely traumatic period in my life. Before I began chemotherapy I was able to show Tammy what my hair was before beginning chemo treatment and I’m so glad I did this. Tammy matched my hair to my human hair wig perfectly! Going through chemo was difficult both physically and mentally and I felt that buying a human hair wig that was tailored for me actually made me feel like ‘me’ when I was feeling so unwell. Over the past 18 months I have visited Tammy a number of times to buy further wigs and to also have styling done. I always get alot of compliments about my wig and I always look like and feel like I’ve just been to the hairdresser! Revisiting Tammy’s salons both in Heidelberg & Narre Warren have always been positive experiences for me and coming from regional Victoria Tammy and her staff are always very mindful of travel and do their best to fit me in for appointments. I will always be very grateful to Tammy and her team for offering such a wonderful service at such a difficult stage in my life - Thank you.
Thank you Kerrie for your beautiful feedback, we value it immensely and are so thankful that you did select us for your realistic alternative hair. The team have always enjoyed looking after you and your wigs. We are so pleased that our wigs were able to help with restoring some dignity for you during a very undignified experience. xx
Kerrie from Bendigo - Thank you note
I just wanted to say a huge "thank you" to Tammy for the empowering experience and exceptional support my husband and I received when attending her bespoke salon. Tammy is gentle, caring, understanding and has first hand experience, which are just a few of the traits that make her service exceptional. With great attention to detail, a great ear to listen to and facilitating a purchase within your budget. Tammy was able to help me find what was not only a gorgeous wig, but was able to help me feel better about myself and feeling more comfortable about wearing not just a wig, but my new hair. She ensured that I knew how to care for my wig to get the most out of it and is available for ongoing support…. I wouldn't go anywhere else and I would highly recommend to others to not go anywhere else either… Thanks Tammy xx
