Very much worth the 3.5 hour drive to Awakenings!Taylor and Heidi were absolutely amazing! Being 36 and newly diagnosed with Triple Negative Breast Cancer, I was not a fan of picking out "my new hair" since my oncologist told me I would lose all of my hair right after my very first chemo treatment. They made the entire process easy and even went above and beyond to find the closest color to my hair color now, which was super important for me because when my boys look at me they will still see momma- it's the security of normality in a very unnormal situation.Amazing store, with amazing ladies, and one hell of a story. If you haven't visited Heidi's webpage or visited through YouTube, I recommend doing so!

I am a cancer patient.Heidi (the owner of Awakenings) is a cancer survivor.She knows the difficulties of losing your hair and your struggle with cancer. She's compassionate, kind and bubbly and cares greatly for us struggling with cancer.She and Taylor treated and cut my wig perfectly.They went over and beyond to ensure not only was I going to pleased with my wig but I also would still feel like the lady that I am while wearing it.I'm truly appreciative to owner and her staff for their contribution to make life easier through these difficult moments.Did I forget to mention, Heidi sells amazing wigs that no one will know you're wearing one!Now that's the way you want to feel.It's truly an awakening experience. Have fun with the hair you'd loved to have.Thank you again girls!You're all amazing!

Terrible service! The owner seemed nice at first but quite jittery and hyper. She was so hyper and nervous and had her daughter there because the father had COVID but I'm a cancer patient and was shocked s owner would bring a child to work knowing the child was supposed to be in quarantine. The child told me she couldn't go to school until it was safe! The owner began taking wigs off of the wall hangers and trying them on and then started cutting away on them. She said she had to get one ready to ship out but took the one she had tried on and trimmed on and boxed up the wig to ship. I never was so repulsed over a wig shop doing that type of selling of wigs. I couldn't bring myself to even purchase a wig from her at that point. I thanked her and left and bought my wig at "The Wigg Shop"! Oh what a joyous, professional and super worker who helped me feel better about having to purchase something I wasn't wanting to do and made me feel like a "human with cancer who wanted to maintain my dignity"! I give "The Wigg Shop" in Plainview a rating!!

I believe the most upsetting thing after finding out I had breast cancer is when the Oncologist told me I would start to loose my hair after the 2nd chemo treatment. I have such a wonderful support team and they immediately got in touch with Awakenings Boutique and scheduled an appointment! Heidi was willing to stay after regular hours to help me find the perfect wig!She made me feel so welcomed and made this such a wonderful experience. I was actually excited once I tried on the wigs and amazed at how natural it looks. I now have one less thing to worry about during this cancer journey! I feel so blessed to have met Heidi and her being a cancer survivor herself, she really wants to help others feel Beautiful during this difficult journey!!

As everyone on this site is aware, it's very traumatic to lose your hair and can be quite uncomfortable to talk about and to face. However, Heidi was awesome with us today! Very sensitive to our needs, took extra time for the right fit, length, color, style, etc. She answered every question and made what could have been a very unenjoyable experience- a pleasant one. I'm so very grateful for this shop. Very grateful there is a professional and caring business that could help my daughter. I know this business was birthed through the pain and suffering of her own experience, but Heidi is a HERO for us. I thank the Lord for putting this boutique in my path. thank you thank you from the bottom of my heart!

I love my new wig. I purchased it a couple of weeks ago and tried to work with it myself. Today I went back to the store and had Holly style it for me.She did an amazing job. I absolutely love how it looks. It does not look like a wig, but like my own hair.

I don’t think there are words to relate what an AMAZING lady Heidi is. There is so much love in this woman that it spills out and just surrounds you the minute you meet her. You walk into her shop and you are immediately welcomed and … yes… comforted … because she’s been there .. she knows just how you feel. Heidi is an extremely talented hair designer…. and is the BEST at what she does… But more than that… she just touches your soul and somehow makes you believe in your beauty again … even when you felt like you lost every beautiful piece of yourself. You walk out feeling confident, joyful and empowered somehow. I truly believe she is one of God’s angels. Thank you so much Heidi ❤️❤️❤️???

Truly an angel. Thank you Heidi ! God bless you

I am newly diagnosed with breast cancer and am about to lose my hair with my current chemotherapy medication. The thought of it terrified me as well as made me sad. I had heard about Heidi and the Awakenings Boutique. So, I made an appointment for a consultation. My daughter Kylie went with me. Heidi was wonderful. She was very knowledge and is a cancer survivor herself, and actually wears the wigs!! They look so real! She spent time with me getting to know about my cancer - so she just wasn't trying to "sell me a wig". She even shared her personal cancer story. I tried on a variety of styles and colors. Sometimes I stated, "Get it off!" because it didn't look like me at all. Other times I just laughed. But....finally I found one that resembled me and my personality. And I bought it!! Heidi will teach you what you need to know about your wig and how to take care of it. She has wonderful instructions on her website. I highly recommend her boutique if you are struggling and contemplating what to do about hair loss. Also, it's kinda cool...she will "name" your "new lady" (wig). She named my Gabriella, but I personally changed it to Samantha. You can call me Sam!
