The owner of the Wig Fairy in Beverly Hills is furious, among other emotions, that a group of thieves broke into her shop and stole pieces meant for women and children going through chemotherapy or other serious conditions that lead to hair loss.
"It hurts not because of our inventory because that can be replaced, right, that's not it. It's just so many people so many people that are going through their hair loss it's like I need it now," said owner Mona, who only wished to share her first name.
Mona, who held back tears as she talked to KCAL News, said her clients come from all over the country, often straight from the doctor, to pick out a wig to cover their thinning hair. She said that many customers come in not wanting empathy, but hoping to find a realistic hairpiece. The wigs are made of human hair with each piece's cut, texture, color and fit personalized for each customer. Mona said they take weeks to create and cost between $2,000 and $4,000 each.
Mona said she and her team spent the day calling her clients and delivering the bad news to her customers.
