Follea Gripper™ Wigs
Hair solutions for Alopecians, by Alopecians
Are you currently experiencing Alopecia? If so, Follea Gripper Wigs may be for you. Just take a look at what some of our satisfied clients had to say about their experience with Follea:
Human Hair wigs created by Alopecians for Alopecians
Follea has pioneered a revolutionary product line for women with little or no hair. Essentially it is designed for Alopecians by Alopecians who understand the unique challenges that comes with Alopecia. At the core of this is product line is the FolleaGripper™ Wigs.
The journey and development of the Gripper product line is something Follea are particularly passionate about, investing a great deal in product research and consumer feedback. They continue to innovate and make changes to the design and fit, recently developing series of prototype Gripper caps that were comfortable, secure, light, breathable, natural, beautiful, and affordable.
From the quickly growing popularity it is clear that Follea Gripper™ wigs were the next generation of wigs for women with alopecia areata, alopecia totalis, and alopecia universalis.
"I would have to say that the Follea Gripper Wig is the best piece I have ever purchased. I have owned synthetic hair, human hair lace, virgin human hair silicone vacuum wigs and last but not least the Gripper Sport by Follea. The Gripper is truly my favourite out of them all. I'M FREAKEN IN LOVE!!!"
The wish list for the ultimate human hair wig for Alopecia:
What became quickly apparent through Follea’s research, is Alopecians wanted the following qualities in a wig:
Wish #1: Alopecians wanted a wig that did not require glue or tapes to secure them in place, yet was secure.
Solution: Follea solved this problem by creating the Gripper Wigs. They are secured in place with medical-grade silicone panels which grip to the scalp. Made in a very tactile material, Gripper Wigs are very comfortable and soft on the scalp. They grip strongly to the scalp so you can be confident in any situation- whether it is high wind, playing sport, or any other activity (one client even completed a 10km mud run/obstacle course in her Gripper wig with no problems).
Wish #2: Alopecians wanted a wig that was cool, breathable and light compared to what was currently available on the market.
Solution: Follea chose materials that would be both cool, comfortable and maximize air flow for the cooling effects of evaporation and the ability to have the wind cool the scalp. The Gripper wig achieves this level of comfort through a dual-layered lace top and the creation of the Soft-fit™ Gripper back. The dual layered lace top helps to wick moisture away from the scalp and prevents hair inversion allowing maximum air flow with total comfort. Our clients often share how they feel the wind on their scalp and enjoy the sensation of the rain on their scalp.
Wish #3: Alopecians wanted high quality hair that was soft and just like their own hair was before, if not better.
Solution : Follea is famous for it’s high-quality European ponytail hair. Likewise, the Gripper is gently hand processed, preserving the unique natural quality of each and every strand. The hair looks and behaves just like your own hair does and truly is ‘nature’s most beautiful hair’.
Wish #4: A natural and undetectable hairline
Solution: Follea uses a fine, yet durable, lace front. This creates a very natural hairline sitting flat to the scalp without the need for lace tapes or glues.
Wish #5: Alopecians wanted a high quality, custom made fit, without having to wait months and months for their wig (especially as Alopecia can have a rapid and extensive onset).
Solution: Follea have created five different base sizes that fit most people, ranging from XXS – L. We keep the most popular base sizes in stock. This means that most people can have the benefit of having their high quality wig in weeks rather than months (sometimes even in days!).
The Follea Gripper™ Wig - The Complete Range
Again, Follea offer a great range of choice at luxurious quality, all gently processed and made from beautiful European hair. The range includes:
Gripper Lite: The Gripper-2 Cool offers a secure, undetectable solution, featuring a hand-tied silk top, with temple to temple open lace-front to create the perfect hairline. You can now wear your hair off your face with total confidence.... and have a lot of fun with it! Around the sides and back it is completely hand tied with an additional interal silk liner for maximum comfort and soft touch on the scalp. This silk liner wicks away moisture on the scalp - something very important on those warmer days to keep you cooler! - and prevents hair inversion. This all new hand tied construction has taken the “hairdryer test” to brand new levels! The hair dryer test is when you force hair to the back of the head with a hair dryer to see what the wig looks like and feels like. The new Gripper Lite marvellouslys replicates the natural look of the scalp, each hair appears like it is growing out of the scalp, even in the strongest of winds! This new hair implantation process also aids breathability and coolness to the scalp. Wearing a wig has never been more comfortable!
Gripper Actif: The extraordinary new Gripper Actif is even more ‘grippy’ thanks to the added silicone strips around the sided and back of the wig. Gripper Actif is perfect for professional or amateur athletes who want the confidence of a natural hairline.

"As a woman experiencing hair loss I felt very much alone in my experience and really didn't want to admit to myself just how much this was impacting my everyday life. When I started avoiding social situations and worrying about giving work presentations because of the way I looked I knew that I had to do something. My consultation with Andrew at Transitions Hair opened up a whole new world for me. Andrew really understood what I was going through and was so enthusiastic to help me find the best way to get me looking and feeling great again. Transitions were genuinely interested in providing me with an affordable, personalised solution that would achieve the best, most natural look for me. I am so happy with the way my hair looks now that I can honestly say it actually looks better than before I suffered my hair loss. The transformation this has had in my confidence and self-esteem makes me wonder why I waited so long. If you've experienced hair loss and are ready to do something about it then I highly recommend a visit to Transitions Hair first."

“I was really pleased to find that Andrew and all the staff there are very kind and made me feel very comfortable in going through the different options. The setup is also nice and discreet; it's nice and private. They make you feel really well looked after.”

"I’m really thankful to have met the people at Transitions. They understood what I was going through with my hair loss and were very empathetic to my needs - it was quite different from other places I had visited. Most importantly, I love what they have done for my hair, it looks great! I feel so much more confident. I would have no trouble in recommending Transitions to anyone. I wish I had of visited them first!"

"The hair is great quality, and yes! it IS undetectable. I have female AGA, and I actually went to consult Andrew with a view to finding out what i might wear in the future as my condition worsens, but I was so taken with the product, I just went with it. My advice is to put your nerves aside - and go see Andrew. None of us love confronting our condition, but you will feel SO much better with the results."

"I now wear a large topette of human European hair. It feels beautiful to run my fingers through! My hairdresser says it has been lovely hair to cut and style. She doesn’t have to manipulate its texture or direction. The colour looks very natural and I am totally confident that the fact that it does not grow from my scalp is undetectable among the public and my large workplace.
I hardly comb it which sounds odd but due to the quality it does not need a lot of work on it.
I know it is superior as I have worn other topettes of asian or indian hair origin for 10 years. I feel more psychologically and physically connected to this piece as it is closer to my European genes. I feel amazing in it – the hair I have always wanted!"

"I can't believe I'm doing this, but it's important. I have gradually been losing my hair since my late teens and it has knocked my confidence immensely. I always look at women with beautiful thick hair and think 'why the hell couldn't I have hair like that?' I used to, it used to be so long and thick but most of it has fallen out now. Now I barely have any. I know that there are a lot of women out there suffering from the same issue (1 in 3 in fact) and I want you to know that there is help available for you if you want it. I have just spent the last few hours with the most amazing woman who has put this solution together for me and I feel like a new person. I can't wait to start learning styling tricks again, I'm so excited!"

I bought my toppette in Sydney about two months ago, and it has been life changing. Sure, it takes some time getting used to psychologically, but I am confident that I will not go back to relying on my bio hair now - it was just too stressful.
