I called Sherry first for a consultation because my hair was extremely short due to me cutting it and I didn't feel good about myself. Sherry was very understanding and listen to the style of hair I was looking for and color too. After trying on different wigs for the first time I was very unsure which one to get because she had so many great wigs and styles to chose from. Sherry was very patient with me and didn't pressure me at all and because I couldn't make up my mind suggested that if it would be easier for me that I could bring a friend or family member in to help with my decision. So we set up another appointment and I brought my daughter with me and tried on the two wigs I was looking at and she helped me make a final decision. Sherry ordered the color and wig I wanted and called me when it arrived and again she took the time with me to fit it and had me style it so I was comfortable with how to work with my new wig. She also went over how to wash it and showed me some products that I could buy (again no pressure) if I was interested in purchasing them from her which I was. After wearing the wig I decided I wanted the one side trimmed a little and again she made an appointment for me and did that. I can't tell you enough how wonderful she is! She trimmed my wig and made sure I was happy when I left. I have gotten so many compliments on my wig that I called Sherry and purchased another one and again I got the same wonderful, caring service as I did the first time. Because of Sherry I feel good about myself and I have gotten so many compliments on my two wigs and since I am not cutting my hair anymore its finally starting to grow. Sherry is a awesome person and if you do a consultation with her you will be glad you did!

She is pleasant on the phone when she answered, but she is currently not accepting new clients.

Sherry is amazing. I have lost my hair 2 times now due to cancer, but you would never know it if I didn’t tell you. Sherry was helpful with every aspect of wig-shopping back when I first lost my hair in 2016 at age 26, and she was just as helpful and knowledgeable when I came in last month with new hair loss from radiation to my brain. She took our price point into consideration and recommended a wig she knew I’d be happy with... and I couldn’t be more thrilled! I feel like ME, and I can barely tell you how valuable that feeling is after years of trying to salvage my own identity following this horrendous diagnosis. Thank you, Sherry, for your guidance, expertise, and compassion! You provide such an amazing service to those of us impacted by hair loss!!!

As someone who already had thinning hair and had just been put on a med that causes hair loss as a side effect, I was so happy to find Alternative Hair recently. Sherry Schaefer, the owner is very knowledgeable and was able to help me find a solution that was perfect for me at this time. I am happy with my purchase and will definitely go back when the need arises. I highly recommend Alternative Hair. I know Sherry will do everything she can to help you make the right decision for yourself, whether it is a wig she has in her shop or something she can order for you.

Sherry is wonderful! She is compassionate, skilled, and helped me pick out a wig that is perfect for me. When I picked up my wig, she set me up with the products necessary to wear and maintain my wig. Losing my hair is much less traumatic with my wonderful new wig.

Several years ago, my sister in law passed away from an illness that took her hair. It was very important to her that people remember her as she was before, and she wanted a wig. I looked high and low, and was running out of time when I found Sherry. She was so compassionate and kind, and went out of her way to help me find what I needed. I'll be forever grateful that I could do this one last act for my sister in law.

Sherry Shaffer, the owner of Alternative Hair, is highly professional, kind, and very experienced in the hair field. In fact, I have bought 3 alternative hair pieces/wigs and a ponytail so that I can wear the ponytail with a baseball cap when I return to working out. Before I lost my hair to breast cancer, I asked Sherry to shave my hair off for me. It was quite empowering and because she was so very sensitive to the process, it was not difficult at all. Sherry is flexible, too. I ordered one hair piece, but when it arrived, it was not the color I preferred. Without a blink of an eye, she whipped out some other hair color samples and ordered another one and that one was perfect! Her business area is super clean, bright, and she also sells soft scarves, hats, and other head items. There is absolutely no pressure to buy anything. Sherry is a complete joy, not to mention, beautiful! I don't think I care if my hair ever grows back!!! I love these hair pieces!!
