Good Wishes 

Description

We manufacture and provide a free head wrap or scarf to anyone experiencing hair thinning or loss due to illness or treatment because the affect of these kinds of hair loss is so much more than cosmetic. Our identities are intimately tied to our hair and the loss of it during an already difficult and emotional time can leave a person feeling vulnerable and hopeless. In addition to the wrap that covers the physical loss of hair, Good Wishes is about promoting healing through the power of positive thought. With each wrap or scarf we send out, we also send every recipient a card, signed by people who care, with personal thoughts and Good Wishes for the recipient. We send our Good Wishes nationwide and look towards the day when this is a global offering.

Mission Statement
Our mission is to provide, free of charge, a "Hug for the Head" in the form of one beautiful head wrap or scarf to anyone experiencing the thinning or loss of hair as a result of illness or treatment to, in some small way, ease their journey. Our goal is to provide a bit of comfort and share the power of positive thinking and Good Wishes with these individuals on their path to healing and recovery.
