What the service does

Wig service supports people who lose their hair because of cancer across Tasmania. Support includes help with wig fitting. An online wig fitting option is available for people who cannot visit one of the three centres in Sandy Bay, Launceston and Devonport. Wigs can be kept for as long as they are needed. People are asked to return the wigs when they no longer use them.
