What our Clients have said about Ralph
Ralph is the absolute BEST! When I bought my first wig due to hair loss, I had absolutely no idea what I wanted or how one even starts the process of selecting a wig style - Ralph has the patience of a saint and helped me through the entire process. He has a great eye for helping you select a wig that compliments your face and looks natural. Over the years I have purchased a number of wigs from Ralph, one better than the next. No one knows that I wear a wig, everyone believes it is my natural hair and I am constantly stopped on the streets of NYC asking me who my colorist is. A custom made wig is an investment but worth every penny and no one is better at the craft of custom made wigs than Ralph.
I just met Raffaele today and he knows EVERYTHING there is to know about wigs and wig creation. even though my current wig wasn't an artisan hand crafted one like the ones he makes, we told me that my wig was good enough to last me through my hair growing back from chemo. Class act..and he didn't charge me for the consult and all the knowledge he shared.
you are one of a kind..thanks you!
He's the greatest wig maker in history.
The best in both service and quality!
