A Hug for Your Head

I found this company, L. Erickson, who is a high end hair ornament design company. They have a program that was recommended to me called "Good Wishes". I decided to post their program on here, because they have trouble getting the word out to breast cancer patients about this really generous thing they do for people. So spread the word if you know anyone else who is going through chemo and/or hair loss (this doesn't include the aging men in our families I believe...)!

Our Story

As a CEO of my own company and 20 years of experience in the fashion accessories industry under my belt, one of my most memorable moments came with a simple question asked by a loyal customer, Hillary, who had recently undergone chemotherapy. What did I have for someone who had lost the very thing that I had built much of my business around: Hair. I apologized and told her we did not carry anything of that nature, and then it hit me. Why not offer her something that in my view was arguably even more vibrant and beautiful? For years I had worked with the finest cotton and silk fabrics with the most beautiful and inspiring colors and designs. I offered to send Hillary a scarf at no charge. It was the least I could do for this woman who was just looking for a little something to make her feel pretty and feminine during a difficult time. At our staff meeting later that week, we took a moment for Hillary and we sent our very first scarf along with our good wishes for a quick recovery. It was at that time that the Good Wishes program was born. - Laurie Erickson, CEO/President, The Finest Accessories® Inc.
