Wig Pricing VAT and NHS Information

• Leading high quality wig brands, with all the benefits of a bespoke wig service in the North East including Durham, Sunderland, Chester le Street, Gateshead, Washington, Consett, Stanley and Newcastle upon Tyne.
•  Our consultations are usually a very enjoyable voyage of discovery trying on different styles and colours to find your preference. 
• We are a family based business and as such haven't grown so large as to have lost the essence of the 1-1 experience in a world where it is often difficult to find a human being to speak to when you have a question! It is why we do what we do.  The owner's experience of Alopecia and hair loss enables her to guide you through the process and often it helps to see wigs and hairpieces worn in real life by real people.
• Do you find you have drawers of online purchases never returned due to handling charges, postage fees and just the inconvenience of returning? You can get it right via a consultation at Beech Grove Wig Boutique before making your wig order and purchase.

NHS 

Currently, we are unable to accept NHS prescriptions, but we hope to do so in the future, but only if becoming an NHS supplier would prove more cost/service effective for our customers, many of whom, like us would qualify for a prescription due to medical hair loss.  We strongly encourage you to enquire about our pricing, even if you hold an NHS prescription. You may find our services prove equally cost-effective.

The Alopecia UK website features a survey on wig provision in England, highlighting common challenges participants faced, such as varying policies across authorities, limited choice of NHS-approved wig suppliers, difficulties in obtaining a prescription, and accessing suitable wigs through the NHS.  If you do receive a prescription please weigh up for yourself if it is actually bestowing you with any cost and/ or service advantage in your own circumstances .  Do not assume this to be so.   For example - If you receive a prescription for £75.00 towards a synthetic wig for 6 months wear and if you are charged £50.00 consultation by the supplier, this leaves £25.00 towards the cost of the wig.  If the supplier who can accept NHS prescriptions is charging more for their products than the exact same product elsewhere it may be more economical not to use your prescription.  It may actually be costing you more to buy the wig you like using a prescription as you are tied to the NHS supplier. Similarly if there is a minimum order value in order to use your prescription that is much more than you intended to spend, weigh up if there is a benefit to using your prescription.  Having walked in the shoes of customers in the past, this too has been a learning curve.  Unfortunately at the beginning of our hair loss journey due to any cause, it is often an emotional and vulnerable time.  The good news is that the wig market is very competitive at the moment and that is good for customers. There are world renowned brands which, if you use these to guide your search, you won't go far wrong.  Never underestimate the value of the personal touch in the journey would be our advice.  The lived experience can save you costly mistakes.
