Hair is a Woman's Crown & Glory
The Suburban Woman of the Northwest Suburbs - Sept./Oct. 2008
When Linda designed Hair For You Salon, she wanted to make sure that when people came in the door they instantly felt comfortable. The environment is both relaxing and inviting, and offers privacy rooms for hair loss consultations. Linda is dedicated with helping clients get their confidence back and to help regain their energy to overcome cancer. Clients have come in ready to give up, traumatized by both the illness and the loss of their hair. I want to give women the power to fight off this disease. “If you can look in the mirror and be happy, it helps with recovery,” she says. Clients call thanking her and telling her they are in remission.
DiFronzo also uses her experience and skills to volunteer outside of work. She participates in the “Look Good, Feel Better” program with the American Cancer Society to help women in cancer treatment with their skin and makeup. She also hosts benefits at the salon to raise money for cancer patients. For the month of October, pink hair extensions can be purchased for $10 each, all proceeds go to the American Cancer Society.

To me, hair is the most important thing for a woman. It doesn’t matter what you’re wearing, if your hair looks good, you will feel great! There is a difference in wig dressers just like there is a difference in hair dressers. Wigs are my passion; I feel in life you
should do what your best at. Recognizing how traumatizing it is for a woman to lose her hair, DiFronzo takes the time to sit down and have a consultation with her clients. She looks at the client’s hair, or pictures, for texture and style. She can add curl, take curl away, change the part, cut the wig and style it. Her biggest compliment is when friends, family, doctors or technicians asks one of her clients going through chemotherapy “why haven’t you lost your hair yet.” With 29 years of experience, Linda has one of a kind talent. Linda makes sure every wig is fit properly so it can look as natural as possible. She emphasizes the importance of going to a licensed hairdresser who is experienced with wigs. Cutting hair is much different than cutting and sizing wigs. “If you go to a proper person, you should look the same way as before you lost your hair”, she says. “There is no reason somebody has to walk out looking like they have a wig.” |
