(1888PressRelease)
July 11, 2007 - Suburbanturban.co.uk is aimed at women who are suffering from hair loss. They can log on to the site and choose from a beautifully designed range of hats and other headwear items that combine fashion with practicality with stylish results! Visitors to the site can also get some practical and highly useful free styling tips to guide them through their new hair loss image, provided by image consultant, Liz Scott, of Imagetastic.
The service has been launched in response to the growing number of women in the UK who are experiencing hair loss, through chemo treatment, alopecia, lupus, trichotillomania (hair pulling) and the female equivalent of male baldness – androgenetic alopecia. Around 20% of women in the UK are now coping with clinically significant hair loss*.
With this taboo subject, there is little understanding of the social and psychological pressures women face and even less discussion about it in the fashion press. Hair loss isn’t about mere vanity for women, it is about trying to maintain a healthy attitude to body image, which is critical to the recovery process as well as coping with longer-term hair loss issues.
Suburban Turban’s fashion focus is on the woman and her continuing sense of style, rather than on the hair loss itself. As so many women feel their image and femininity are inherently defined by their hair, losing it can have a huge impact on how women may limit themselves, in terms of style or fashion. Which is why all of Suburban Turban’s hat styles are selected on design and colour rather than ‘necessity’ and are sourced from designers in Europe and the UK.
Suburban Turban, is the fashionable headwear website for women experiencing hair loss, where contemporary designs from Europe and the UK can be purchased over the Internet. All designs are selected with their specific concerns in mind – secure comfortable fit, cool lightweight fabrics, soft and chic styles. This is ultra-feminine fashion to make women feel gorgeous again! Prices range from £25-£55.
