Project Description

My name is Dawn Vermillion, I am the owner of Morning Glory Wig Studio, a woman-owned, e-commerce wig boutique, and I love alternative hair!  My mission is to provide alternative hair solutions for women facing hair loss or thinning, and of course women just wanting to try something new.  It is my hope that every woman who is on a hair loss or alternative hair journey finds a style (or two) that is right for them.

I have a deep passion for what I do. I care about the women I serve, and I strive to give the best, most personalized service I can. I'm not just a faceless e-commerce store, I'm a real live person who connects with my customers. I have strived to show up consistently where my customers are, at this time that's mainly on social media. I present what I offer via Facebook live streaming, stories, Reels and posts. This is not a new concept, and I truly enjoy doing all of it. But, presenting content this way is just a small part of a good marketing strategy, not to mention it has pretty limited reach. I also need to utilize paid advertising.

In order to be fabulous and relevant on social media, fresh content is essential, but so is advertising. What that means to me? It is essential that not only do I have a variety of sample styles to allow for creating new, relevant content on social media, I must also be able to utilize paid ads, as consistently as I show up.  This is the problem I am faced with; limited visibility because I am not currently able to implement a complete marketing strategy, and, I am not able to present new products to continue being relevant, showing up consistently and meeting the needs of my customers and audience. Your generous sponsorship will help me build and implement a consistent marketing strategy as well as update my sample collection of current and new styles from several brands offered at Morning Glory Wig Studio. 

I have a super supportive team of women I have connected with on Facebook, all wig wearers who have become dear friends and some of my most dedicated supporters. All of these beautiful women have dealt with hair loss or thinning in some fashion, and all volunteer their time to help support my business. LeeAnn started losing hair after bariatric surgery and rapid weight loss. She is an aspiring wig reviewer and influencer. Lena has an autoimmune disorder for which she receives low doses of chemo causing thinning. She refuses to buy hair from anyone but me.  Jo is a cancer survivor. Her bio hair is growing back now but she still loves her wigs.  Cynria has a medical condition and alopecia, both have robbed her of her hair. This gracious lady voluntarily sent me several of her own personal wigs on loan to give me something fresh to show. Cindy has thinning due to aging and home bleaching/dying gone wrong. 

Thank you all so very much for supporting my dream. I cannot fully express my gratitude for your decision to help, there just simply are no words.

ABOUT WOMEN'S HAIR LOSS 

  • Do women lose their hair as much as men?

    • Yes, in fact, according to an article published in September 2022 by Nebraska Medicine, hair loss affects more than 50% of women at some point in their lives and about 80% of women by age 80; that's close to 30 million women in the United States.

  • Are cancer and alopecia the only reasons women lose their hair?
  • Do all women who lose their hair wear wigs? 

    • No, surprisingly, most don't even ask for help and suffer in silence. There is an old stigma with wearing wigs, one that people like me are working hard to break, to help normalize wig wearing today.

  • Are wigs for hair loss expensive?

    • They can be, yes. Ethically sourced human hair wigs are very costly.  Synthetic wigs are much more affordable.

  • Does insurance help pay for wigs for medical hair loss?

    • Some insurance companies will help pay for wigs as "cranial prosthetics", many still do not.
