Katie, the director or the company, has been making wigs for 20yrs after training with Ray Marston at his studio in London as one of his in-house makers. Over the years, Katie has been all over the world, working alongside some of the world’s best wig makers and designers. This has allowed her to develop her skills by learning the exclusive techniques and difficulties overcome from the masters of the wig world.
