Bear with the Hair

12/03/2026

Earlier I showed you my natural hair.
Now here’s the other side of the story.
In less than an hour, my hair can look and feel completely different.
Not because I’m hiding anything… but because after more than 20 years of living with fine hair, I’ve learned that there are beautiful, natural ways to create the hair you wish you had.
For some women that’s a topper.
For others it might be Bear Skalp.
Small changes can make an enormous difference to how you feel when you look in the mirror.
Because when your hair feels right, something shifts inside you. You stand a little taller. You feel a little more like yourself again.
And that’s what Bear with the Hair has always been about.
For thinning hair, hair loss… or just plain hair envy. 💜

This is my natural hair.
I’ve never really had thick, easy hair. In fact, I’ve been wearing hair for over 20 years.
I’m sharing this because hair affects how we feel about ourselves far more than people realise.
For many women, thinning hair or hair loss isn’t just about appearance. It can quietly chip away at confidence. You look in the mirror and something just doesn’t feel quite like you anymore.
I understand that feeling deeply, because I’ve lived it.
And I know I’m not alone. So many women struggle with thinning hair, hair loss, or simply wishing their hair was fuller, thicker, better.
This video is just me being honest about my own hair.
In the next one, I’ll show you how I create the look of fuller hair — with toppers and Bear Skalp — and why these solutions can make such a difference to how women feel.
Because this is exactly why Bear with the Hair exists.
For thinning hair, hair loss… or just plain hair envy. 💜

We understood the assignment 🫡💜

A small, discreet hair topper can make a world of difference.
This lovely client has female pattern hair loss. Her natural hair is very fine on top, which meant styling had become frustrating and confidence had taken a knock.
We fitted a lightweight topper that blends seamlessly with her own hair. It simply adds a little density where it’s needed most, allowing her to style her hair again without worrying about visible scalp.
Nothing dramatic. Nothing obvious. Just natural-looking coverage and a boost in confidence.
Sometimes the smallest solution makes the biggest difference. 💜

💜STORY TIME💜

Last week we ended our relationship with a client!!

Why? Read on.......

At the end of her final session in the chair, she popped back to the salon and handed us a card and a bunch of spring daffodils.

She told us she gives daffodils to the important women in her life.

Inside the card she wrote that this time last year she walked into Bear with the Hair with very little hope.

Her hair had become severely matted during a period where life had simply become too much.

Before finding us she’d been given some very poor advice elsewhere, which resulted in a large section of her hair being cut away and heavy cornrows added that would likely have caused even more damage if left.

Sadly we see this quite often… people arriving after being told the only solution is to cut, cover or rush the process.

So we started again. Gently. Slowly. Carefully.

Over the past year we’ve worked with patience, kindness and a lot of trust to help her hair recover and regrow around the area of loss. No quick fixes. No harsh methods. Just steady care and the belief that things could get better.

Last Thursday was her final appointment.

She left with all of her own hair again.

There were tears. From all of us.

One part of the card really stayed with me. She said that seeing the care and kindness inside the salon inspired her to begin training with the Samaritans, so she can now support other people through dark moments too.

That’s the ripple effect of kindness.
Hair grows back. Confidence returns. And sometimes the care you show someone travels far beyond the salon door.

Moments like this are exactly why Bear with the Hair exists. 💜

We are just sooooo lucky to have so many wonderful clients who take the time to leave us reviews. I'm honestly blown away by all the kind words and as a small business, it means so much.
Ellie has been coming to me for extensions for around a year now, and travels all the way from Norfolk which is at least a 4 hour round trip on a good run - that truly humbles me!
I probably don't talk about our hair extensions much, but I'm not sure why. I absolutely LOVE doing them and seeing the results.
With 20 years experience, and only using the highest quality hair you can be sure of a perfect result that will cause no damage to your own hair. Just an instant confidence boost!

Hello ladies 💜
Can we have an honest chat about buying hair online?
As a hair wearer for over 20 years, and long before the salon when I was a customer myself, ordering hair online always made me nervous.
What if it’s the wrong colour?
What if the fit isn’t right?
What if the coverage isn’t enough?
What if the quality isn’t great… or worse, it’s just not me?
And of course… the big one…
What if it’s a scam? 😢
The list of worries felt endless.
Now, running Bear with the Hair, I have complete faith in the hair we provide and in my understanding of what women truly need. But strangely, I’ve always shied away from offering online sales.
The truth is, that means many wonderful ladies who could benefit from our beautiful hair miss out simply because they live too far away.
So I’d really love to know your thoughts…
If Bear with the Hair offered online ordering, supported by:
💜 A personal online consultation
💜 Guidance choosing colour, fit and coverage
💜 A fair and sensible returns policy
…would that be something you’d be interested in?
In a world where almost everything happens online, maybe it’s time that trusted hair did too.
Not just any hair.
Hair you can trust. Hair you’ll truly love.
Let me know your thoughts below — I’d genuinely love to hear them 💜

Sometimes the smallest changes create the biggest transformations.
This lovely lady has lived with very fine hair for many years. Styling it was always a struggle and it often felt like there simply wasn’t enough hair to do anything with.
Today she tried our New Yorker Baby topper – exclusive to Bear with the Hair – and the difference was instant. Not heavy, not obvious, just a beautifully discreet boost of coverage and volume exactly where she needed it.
The result? Natural movement, fuller hair and a style she can finally enjoy.
She walked out smiling and said she felt like a new woman. And that is exactly why we do what we do. 💜
Small piece. Big confidence.

So.....possibly the most exciting thing to happen to me since I got 2 fingers of a Kit Kat in solid chocolate!! 🤣

✨ Introducing Bear Skalp Lite ✨
The lighter, more delicate version of Bear Skalp… created for those who want beautiful coverage with an even softer, barely-there feel.
But let me tell you the real headline…
For the first time, I can put my sunglasses on my head and push my hair back. Just like that. No thinking. No adjusting. No fear of movement.
If you don’t wear hair, it sounds tiny.
If you do… you know it’s everything.
That simple, carefree gesture.
That normality.
That freedom.
I show it in the video because it still feels a bit magical to me.
Bear Skalp Lite is about comfort, confidence and those everyday moments that quietly mean the world. 💜
If you’d like to know whether Bear Skalp Lite could be right for you, WhatsApp us on 01708 456175.

So......I didn’t start Bear with the Hair because I spotted a gap in the market.
I started it because I was the customer.
I made mistakes. I trusted the wrong people. I spent money I shouldn’t have.
And I learned — the hard way — how vulnerable thinning hair and hair loss can make you feel.
There’s a lot in this industry that doesn’t sit right with me.
Fear-based selling.
Overpriced solutions.
People being pushed into decisions when they’re already vulnerable.
So we don’t rip people off.
We don’t prey on fear.
We don’t hide behind fancy branding or expensive marketing campaigns.
I’m just a normal Essex girl who understands — because I’ve lived it.
One-take videos. No scripts. Honest advice.
Always human. Always kind. 💜

💜 A gift passed on, with love 💜

Recently, we were entrusted with something incredibly special.

A much-loved mum had her human hair wig lovingly created here at Bear with the Hair.

After her passing, her daughter returned it to us with her mum’s wish that it be passed on, so another woman could benefit from it.

With her daughter’s blessing, we’re now sharing this in the hope of honouring that wish.

We are inviting expressions of interest from anyone who feels this wig could support them at a time they truly need it.

Rather than a set price, we are asking that the wig be received through a donation of your choosing to her mum’s favourite charity, St Luke’s Hospice, in recognition of the care and compassion they provided.

💜 Bear with the Hair will take care of all alterations and customisation to make this wig feel just right for its next wearer

💜 The full donation will go directly to St Luke’s Hospice

💜 We will also be making our own donation on behalf of Bear with the Hair

If you would like to be considered, please send us a private message on here or via whatsapp on 01708 456175.

All enquiries will be treated with sensitivity, respect, and confidentiality.

This is not about value or price — it’s about continuing a legacy of kindness, dignity, and care, exactly as this lovely mum wished.

Thank you for holding this story so gently with us 💜

Love and thanks to Becky Argent for following through with your lovely Mums wishes 💜
