Wigs for Kids
At Tammy Lobato Wigs, we understand that hair loss can be especially challenging for children and their families. Our wigs for kids are created with care, compassion, and attention to detail — helping young people feel confident and comfortable in their own skin again.
From your very first visit, our caring team provides a calm and supportive experience. We work gently with children to make the process positive, ensuring every wig looks natural, feels comfortable, and suits their unique personality.
Children's Hair Loss and Common Causes
Hair loss in children can occur for many reasons, and it’s natural for families to seek answers and reassurance. At Tammy Lobato Wigs, we regularly assist children experiencing hair loss from:
Cancer and Chemotherapy
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.
Alopecia
Children with alopecia areata or other types of alopecia often experience patchy or total hair loss. We provide realistic, secure wigs that help restore a sense of normality and self-esteem.
Our custom-fitting approach ensures the wig stays comfortably in place, even for active children, and we take extra care to match colour, texture, and length for the most natural result.
Autoimmune and Other Medical Conditions
Certain autoimmune and medical conditions — such as trichotillomania, thyroid disorders, or nutritional deficiencies — can also cause hair thinning or loss. No matter the cause, we provide discreet, understanding care for every child and family we meet.
We also work closely with families to support any medical or emotional needs, ensuring the wig experience is empowering rather than overwhelming.
Specialist Wig Fittings for Children
Every child’s wig is individually fitted to ensure comfort, security, and a natural appearance.
During your private consultation, we’ll:
- Take gentle measurements for the perfect fit
- Match your child’s natural hair colour and style
- Select lightweight, breathable caps for sensitive scalps
- Offer both human hair and synthetic options
- Provide styling that reflects your child’s personality and confidence
We also understand that affordability is important. Our team can assist with applications for the Variety Children’s Charity Wig Grant, helping to make high-quality wigs for kids more accessible.

What Our Clients Have to Say
I am undergoing Chemotherapy and decided I wanted to wear a wig to help me feel a little better about myself. Tammy L and Tammy Mc were so helpful, friendly, compassionate and offer ongoing support and advice for wig maintenance. They were very patient with me as I tried on several wigs. I love my new wig and would highly recommend Tammy Lobato to anyone. Thank you so much to both Tammy's.
Thank you very much Joanne for your very generous comments. We highly value your feedback. Thank you x

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!

Tammy Lobato is where I go for my hair systems and maintenance. Tammy is professional, empathetic, and friendly. I really appreciate Tammy, Lani, Elvira, and all the staff. I always feel comfortable and looked after when I come. They always fit in all my appointments and I would highly recommend them. I have been a regular customer for over a year now, and it's the only place I will go. Lots of different Wigs and toppers and hair systems to choose from. So glad I found Tammy ☺️
