FAQ'S
Commonly asked questions from the StyleEsteem community
Our Designs
Most of our pieces are designed in a stretch, one-size-fits-most construction that works whether you have a full head of hair or none at all, in adult and child sizes. For a more tailored fit, we offer custom couture headpieces and size-adjustor pins that can be added to any piece. If you're unsure about fit, book a free styling session and we'll help you find the right match.
Every StyleEsteem piece is made from hand-sourced fabrics and trims gathered from around the world — silks, satins, velvets, embroidered textiles, and more. Each fabric is chosen not just for its beauty but for how it feels against the skin. Full fabric details are listed on each individual product page.
Most pieces can be gently hand-washed in cool water with a mild soap and laid flat to dry. We recommend avoiding machine washing, wringing, or direct heat. Full care instructions are listed on each product page — we always recommend following those specific guidelines to keep your piece looking its best.
Store your pieces flat, loosely folded, or in your StyleEsteem dust bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid hanging turbans for extended periods as this can stretch the fabric.
All StyleEsteem orders arrive in our signature packaging, making every piece gift-ready.
Styling & Wearing
You're in the right place. Every product listing includes styling suggestions, and our blog has style guides for every need. The best place to start is our free 1-on-1 virtual styling session — our experts will walk you through everything based on your personal style, the occasion, and where you are in your hair journey.
Our turbans work beautifully with any amount of hair. For thicker or longer hair, a low bun or twist at the nape of the neck creates a clean base for the turban to sit on.
Absolutely. StyleEsteem pieces are designed to go anywhere you do — from black-tie events and weddings to everyday errands. Our couture collection and evening wear pieces in particular are designed with elevated occasions in mind. Browse by occasion in our collection guide to find the right piece for your event.
Yes — our Matching Sets collection includes pieces designed for children and their caregivers to wear together. It's one of our most beloved collections for families navigating hair loss together.
Cancer, Hair Loss & Alopecia
We're here for you. The best first step is to book a free 1-on-1 virtual styling session with our team — no pressure, no obligation, just a conversation about where you are and what might make you feel most like yourself right now. You can also browse our Cancer Support Blog for guidance, or start with our Head Coverings for Cancer Patients, Hair Loss & Alopecia Collection. We've been where you are, and we built this for moments exactly like this one.
Yes. Our stretch designs are made to fit securely without hair to anchor them. Many of our clients wear them through full days of treatment, events, and everything in between. Our size-adjustor pins can also be added to any piece for additional security and a more customized fit.
We understand that needs change during treatment, and the scalp can be especially sensitive. Our For Hair Loss curation features fabrics chosen specifically with this in mind — soft, smooth linings that sit gently against the skin without irritation. Full fabric and lining details are listed on each product page, and our styling team is always available to help you find the most comfortable option for where you are in your treatment.
Many of our clients do, and it's one of the things that means the most to us. Wearing something beautiful and intentional to treatment is an act of self-expression and strength. Our For Hair Loss Collection has styles specifically suited to long sessions — comfortable, secure, and designed to make you feel like yourself.
About StyleEsteem
StyleEsteem was designed for everyone — whether you have a full head of hair, are experiencing hair loss from cancer, alopecia, or another condition, wear head coverings for religious, cultural, or personal reasons, or simply want to express your style in a unique way. Our pieces are worn on runways and in infusion rooms, at places of worship and on school runs, at weddings and everywhere in between. If you want to feel beautiful and like yourself, you belong here.
Currently our full collection is available exclusively through our website. We occasionally appear at events and pop-ups — follow us on Instagram and join our community to be the first to know about in-person opportunities.
Because our pieces are released in limited editions, once a style sells out it's gone for good — that's what makes each one special. That said, if you've fallen in love with something that's no longer available, reach out to us directly. We occasionally have samples in our studio and we'll always do our best to help.
Yes. Our custom design service offers everything from bespoke sizing on our existing couture pieces to full one-of-a-kind creations built entirely around your vision — whether that's a perfect fit, a specific occasion, a fabric you've been dreaming of, or something that has never existed before. Whatever you have in mind, we'll work with you to make it.
We work with select partners on wholesale and collaboration opportunities. If you're interested in carrying StyleEsteem or partnering with us, we'd love to hear from you. Get in touch with us.
Giving Back & Community
You can sponsor a turban donation directly through our website, which puts a piece in the hands of a patient who needs it most. Every purchase also automatically contributes to the program.
We would love to hear from you. Every person who wears StyleEsteem carries a story worth telling, and sharing yours helps build a community where others feel less alone. Reach out to us or tag us on Instagram @styleesteem — we read every message and we mean it when we say your story matters to us.
