Transgender Wigs
As well as providing solutions for all kinds of hair loss, we are also proud to make lace wigs for transgender clients for male or female wearers. Mandeville offers a personal, caring and discrete service to help you at any stage of your transition. With over 50 years' experience creating the finest handmade wigs, we understand the challenges of not having the hair of your dreams naturally. But we are here to help you achieve it no matter if you are a first time wearer or an experienced one.
SPECIALISTS IN TRANSGENDER WIGS
At the forefront of the wig-making industry, we are Europe's leading specialists in handmade European natural hair wigs and hairpieces. Our innovative lace foundation materials make our wigs truly unique; we believe they're the best in the world. Super light – weighing less than a gram – and breathable, they are almost invisible against the skin yet incredibly strong and secure. This foundation feels light, comfortable and cool to wear. Each wig or hairpiece is individually crafted using the finest quality, 100 percent natural European human hair. Our team will expertly create an entirely individual wig, which fulfils the colour, texture and length you desire, just like your own hair.
NATURAL-LOOKING HUMAN HAIR WIGS
We create ultra-lightweight lace wigs and hairpieces that feel, move and react exactly like a natural head of growing hair. Nobody will ever know you are wearing one. We never use synthetic hair and each wig is hand-knotted with up to 70,000 natural European hairs by Mandeville's talented team of wig makers, creating the perfect wig for you. This exacting method means that hairs are anchored following the pattern of natural growth, including the spiral of the crown, for an authentic-looking result. Our intricate processes recreate extraordinarily lifelike heads of hair.
THE MADE-TO-MEASURE HUMAN HAIR WIG COLLECTION
Mandeville's collection of made-to-measure wigs, three-quarter wigs and hairpieces are crafted and handmade to your own specific requirements, including individually fitted foundation and hair matched to your desired colour, texture and length. The completed creation is then cut and styled on your head by one of our appointed hairdressers. Whether you want a shade similar to your own hair or have a different vision, a hand tied made to measure human hair wig is designed to offer you the ultimate creative control over your look.
*This completely bespoke product requires a minimum of three private fittings.
THE READY-MADE COLLECTION
If you require a wig right away medium or one size up or down, Mandeville have created a stock collection of ready-made full and half wigs which are designed to fit most head sizes. These wigs are made with the same methods as the made-to-measure collection, using the same materials, and finished to the same exacting standards. They are available in a choice of 11 carefully selected colours using the best quality 12” European hair. Our ready-made wigs are cut and dressed on your head to your preferred styling.

FAQS
It's a lot to take in - what can we help you with?
Will people be able to tell if I am wearing a wig or hair extensions?
No, we have been supporting our clients with hair loss since 1969 and have created the ultimate head of hair. We have mastered the recreation of every detail, from our incredibly realistic crown swirls to the natural direction of hair growth and scalp only. Our client feedback reassures us that their hair loss can remain undetected, even to close friends and family.
Can I sleep with a wig on?
No, we advise our clients not to sleep wearing their wig or hairpiece for several reasons. Sleeping in a wig and hairline, therefore creating excessive friction on the back of the piece, can cause the carefully hand knotted hairs to come through the foundation. Wearing your piece every day and night may also result in your new hair needing to be washed and styled much more frequently than usual, which ultimately can reduce the lifespan of any garment.
Are wigs or hair extensions better during transition?
For transgender women, consider if your bio hair with hair extensions will help you achieve the style or new look you desire. If your own hair is thinning or your natural hairline doesn't align with your transition, or if you'd like an instant new look or style for your confidence a wig is the ideal purchase. It requires less maintenance and with our Made to Measure service can be created to your bespoke requirements.
