Tell us a little about yourself

My name is Jess. I am 29 years old and I live in Miami, Florida. I was diagnosed with stage 4 Hodgkin's Lymphoma in February. After 7 months of chemo and radiation, I am finally in remission as of August. In the process, I created a blog lymphomabarbie.com and a book Talk Cancer to Me, to help other cancer fighters with their journey to overcoming this awful disease.

How long have you been wearing wigs and Jon Renau for?

I have been wearing Jon Renau wigs since February when I lost all of my hair and I absolutely love them!

What do you love about our brand?

It's the only brand I have found that no one can tell I'm actually wearing a wig, since they look so unbelievably natural. I get compliments daily, asking where I get my hair done!

What advice would you give to a new wig wearer?

The Jon Renau collection is absolutely amazing, and so natural! If you have lost your hair, and it was always long, don't automatically think you have to get a long wig. I have the Drew, and Zara, but my favorite go to wig is the Kristin, which is a cute bob!
