Barb L.


I am so thankful that my surgeon recommended Fantasia Salon. Colleen has been so helpful and kind. It has been a good experience.





Susan T


My experience was superior to my expectations. I feel and look like a new person who will now be happily smiling as I recover my health and face my friends, family and the public. I have confidence already that I look good! Thank you Cheryl and Fantasia.





Mary K


Hi, I just wanted to let you know how wonderful your salon is. Cheryl was so kind and helpful. I am dealing with lymphoma and losing my hair was so hard. I am a red head and my entire identity has been wrapped up with my red hair. Cheryl helped me find the perfect cyber hair and color. Working in a professional setting. I didn't want to have a different look every month. My cyber hair is perfect! I look put together and nobody can even tell it isn't my natural hair. It is fool proof,too. I take good care of it and literally plop it on every day. It is so simple. I LOVE IT!
Dealing with all the unknowns lately has been over-whelming. But with the help of Cheryl and your salon, I feel like I have my life under control. At least for now. Thank you.





Connie C.


I have been coming to Fantasia for 30+ years! I have my color done by Jillian. Since I switched "color technicians", I get nothing but compliments - EVERYONE loves the color and says how much more flattering it is! I am grateful for my "new" friend Jillian and the professional service I recieve. She is also a friend. How lucky am I!





Barb S.


Mandi cut my hair for the first time today. She asked many questions about
what I wanted and listened carefully. I LOVE what she did and had a fun time
chatting!





Annie M.


Always a great experience! Mandi does a great job. Thanks Mandi!





Paula B.


I always look forward to having my hair done by Robin! She pays attention to
every detail in caring for and styling my hair. She is an artist who helps me look
and feel the best I can be. And, she is fun to converse with during the time I
spend at Fantasia. I highly recommend her!





Karen S.


Great haircut - always fun to see Mandi. She is so energetic and always has
suggestions for new styles! I wouldn't even think of going to another salon -
Fantasia is the best!





Kathy D.


It was great fun! Wonderful cut, great make-up and terrific eye lashes! WOW!
I look younger!





Annie


Today was my first time working with Sophie. She was a geat listener, she understood my "wishes" and she was very successful at working with my curly hair and the style I was looking for. Great job!

Everything was GREAT! Thank you so much!





Terri H.


I love my new color and the haircut is fantastic! I plan t
see Sophie for future appointment. Thank you so much for
giving me a "new" look!





Donita M.


Sofie,
Thank you for my new hair style, skin and nail advice. My
nails are doing much better since I started on the cream. You
are a doll and I enjoyed getting to know you and about your
passion in life. Take care and have a great summer!





Shelia L.


I used to walk around with my fist clenched - no, I wasn't going into a fight - I was hiding my "no nails"! Then Marni suggested I have a shellac manicure. she thought it would be healthy for my nails, has a great look and I might stop fiddling with them. Now, about six weeks later, my nails are GORGEOUS! You don't have to wait for the polish to dry! It's fantasticf! Yeah Marni, Yeah shellac manicure!





Connie C.


Marni has been doing my manicures and pedicures for 6 years. I have my nails done every week. I like them to look nice as I give out samples in the wine shop. People comment on the flowers Marni paints on each week. They think they are decals! Marni is very good at what she does! She is very personable, efficient, talented and accomodating. I feel as though I have a friend as well as a manicurist.





K. J.


As usual, Fantasia has been taking good care of me.

My shellac manicure was done to perfection by Marni.

My hair, perfect by Marlene.

I'm looking forward to my next pedi!

Dear Virginia:
My brother and I brought our mother in this afternoon to try on wigs. She's been thinking and talking about this non-stop for months. She tried some on at another shop two months ago and found absolutely nothing to her liking. We had no hope for today as well, but she was obsessed with looking at wigs!

It's tough getting old and bald, right? Well, mom was pretty cranky, and Virginia, you were an absolute angel! You really knew what to do and how to present the wigs. She really does look great in it. She is estatic and really loves it.

Thank you so much! We thought we'd be searching for wigs for the next year or two.





Sandy C.


Twila:
Thank you (and Colleen) so much for all your help and
professional advice. It is wonderful to have my confidence
back, not having to constantly wonder if my hair is moving
like real hair or if anyone notices that I don't have
eyelashes or eye brows. I have had so many compliments on my
hair - actually starting with one of the flight attendants on
my trip home! Everyone knows that I look different and for
the most part think it is simply due to a new hairstyle.

As a token of my appreciation, this box contains a few treats
that are a "Taste of Vermont".

By the way, thanks to your eyelash tips I was able to
successfully apply a new set today. It's great to look and
feel whole again...





Jody B.


My experience with Colleen today was just great. I'll be back for more!

Cheryl was incredible! I wanted this experience to be fun and uplifting AND
creative. It's a time for me to be a different, stronger person. Cheryl helped me
with all of this. She's got a great eye so she got us quickly to a perfect look and
feel. Absolutely happy, Thanks Cheryl!





Darlene H.


I learned that I had alopecia areata in 1967. Within two years this progressed to alopecia universalis or complete loss of all body hair. At first I was devastated. About a year later I met Twila Donley and have been one of her Fantasia clients ever since.

Today, I wear an Amy's Presence Cyber Hair wig. It gives me a great fit since the cap comes in half sizes. I can simply spray it with water when I want to change the style from more curl to less curl. The custom coloring gives me a completely natural look. Because my hair looks so natural, I feel like myself again!

Twila staffs her salon with skilled Hair Replacement Specialists who are very caring individuals. For those who have experienced hair loss through alopecia, chemotherapy or other baldness, a well cut wig styled by someone who is sensitive to their personal needs can make a significant difference in self-esteem.

The dedicated Fantasia team assists clients with wig styles and is sensitive to their emotional needs. There are private consultation rooms in the salon so the service is absolutely confidential.

Fantasia offers professionals with expertise in cutting, styling and caring for wigs. Twila and her team are skilled stylists sensitive to the needs of others.







Stephanie D.


Everything was awesome as always! I absolutely love my Micro-Point Links, they
have made such a difference. I LOVE Mandi!





C.S.


Colleen was so helpful and made my anxiety level drop almost immediately. She
came up with a plan to address my hair loss issues and I feel confident with her
advice.





Darlene H.


The service was genuine and efficient - for someone who has worn a wig for
over 50 years - I feel as if I finally have someone who understands the need for
proper fit and style.

It will be worth EVERY penny. Thank you Colleen, I will be back!





T. S.


Colleen:
You do a wonderful job listening and working hard to achieve the goals of your
client. Your attention to detail makes for a great outcome and a happy client.
Thank you for such fabulous service!





Donita M.


Twila:
What a wonderful service your provide. Working with Sofie was
a pure delight, she actually helped me so much regarding nail
and hair care, even more than the cancer center. I will be
sharing your expertise with all who will listen - I have
already begun. Thank you for making this time more
comfortable for me. God Bless!





Nancy


Thank you so much for changing my life Colleen! This is THE most awesome
place!





Bridget D.


The staff at Fantasia are creative, efficient and caring. As a cancer patient, I am
confident I am in good hands!

I am very thankful and love the work you have done for me.
Very satisfied!





Kim D.


I'm still coming here after 2 years! That's a record for me. So what that means is, I LOVE Mandi and the way she does my hair. Fantasia Salon also brings back memories of my sister who came here before she passed away from cancer. The staff here are all very friendly and the atmosphere is warm and comfortable. Thanks for all that you do.

I come in never sure what I want and Mandi takes care of me and gives the best make-over. She does my hair so perfect for my complexion. I will always go to her. She is so fun to talk to. Thanks Mandi, you are the best!

Losing hair is possibly my worst side effect of chemoherapy. But, many thanks to Colleen - choosing a wig was fun. This experience was much less traumatic than anticipated. We will recommend Fantasia to anyone going through this.





Sue


I love Fantasia and Sophie is fabulous! I love her hair; however, what she and Twila have done for me and my situation is indescribable! Love to you all.

I really appreciate and enjoy my appointments with Sophie. She is warm, pleasant and professional. I feel she does a superb job washing and styling my wig.

I look forward to my visits here and keeping up with her life. Thank you so much Sophie!





Terri K.


Sophie is GREAT! She is really knowledgable. I LOVE my wig!





Rosemary


I have been coming to Fantasia Salon for over 6 years. Colleen is AMAZING - she instinctively knows what I like and what will look good on me! I have had many people ask who does my hair, and they can't believe it when I tell them I wear a wig. I have referred a number of people to Colleen and they have been as thrilled as I have. I was so upset when I first came, but, Colleen has made every experience here to be very positive. I wouldn't dream of going anywhere else for my wigs. Thank you for changing my life in such a positive way! It's fun now to get up and get dressed.





V.S.


Several years ago, I needed to find a different beauty shop. I found a great place at Fantasia. I have a wonderful beautician - Colleen that I see on a regular basis and I know I can depend other talented people when Colleen is on vacation. I highly recommend this salon.





Jeanne


Colleen always makes me look my best. I bring in my ideas and
she incorporates them into my custom-designed hairstyle!

Most people don't know I've worn wigs for a LONG time! I
recommend Colleen to everyone!





Janice


Colleen was extremely helpful and knowledgable in fitting with my wiglet. I couldn't be more pleased with the new me and have recieved many compliments from friends
claiming that I look younger! My wig is easy to wear and to maintain!

Virginia was great. She kept our family full of smiles!
My mom's new hair is AMAZING! Thank you so much for all your
support!





Susie C.


I am so pleased with my new Cyber Wig! I had brain surgery
which left me with a partially shaved head plus my hair was
thinning on top. The Cyber Hair is just wonderful! The cut
is so cute and up to date and the color is beautiful! Never
have I gotten so many compliments on my hair from people who
don't even know it is a wig! Virginia, my hair stylist, is a
master at steering me in the right color and cut as well as
fitting me perfectly. She is very knowledgable about hair and
the various products which can be used. Thank you so much
Virginia and Fantasia!

Sincerely,
Susie C.





K.S.


Everything about Fantasia is exceptional! Customer service like you've never seen before! Colleen is a doll. She was so kind and patient with me. I was embarassed to need a wig, but she made me feel comfortable. I am a customer for life!

PS. It's worth the 1 hour drive it takes me to get to Fantasia!





Dee H.

Nancy H.


Colleen is my miracle worker! I purchased my Amy's Presence
Wig - I had professional pictures taken for my Real Estate
Career and was asked to audition for the D.I.Y. Network Show
"Sweat Equity" and was chosen! I went from -Blah to WOW!
People notice!





Elizabeth S.


Cheryl was great when I met her for my appointment - very knowledgeable. Thank you for welcoming my friends to be with me that evening and giving me support---very much appreciated. This whole cancer diagnosis is difficult enough and to lose your hair on top of it, it's just cruel. But, I really did appreciate all the info and options. Thanks!





Deb C


As a 1st time customer, I was so pleased with the response I
received just by calling for my appointment! So friendly - so accommodating and so happy that I called!

I felt welcome before I even stepped foot in the door! Thank
you for exemplifying what customer service really means!

There is simply no way to overestimate the importance of Twila Donley (Fantasia) in my life. For the first few years after losing my hair to Alopecia Areata, I bought wigs from many different sources. I tried ready made wigs, custom made wigs, wigs made of synthetic fiber, human hair wigs, but the results were always the same--major disappointment for me. I HATED to appear in public and I was always uncomfortably conscious of my hair. Then, through the Alopecia grapevine, I heard about Twila at Fantasia.

The first impression I had of Twila was her kindness and personal warmth. She made me feel as though I had come home, and all would now be well. And, all has been well. For many years Twila ordered, cut, styled my wigs and made sure I was completely happy with the outcome. She understands and respects my insecurity and fussiness about each new wig. Her calm professionalism soothes and encourages me. She is now helping me make the switch to grey hair--ours is a long history.

I will never be glad that I have Alopecia, I will always wish for my own hair. But, I know I can depend on Twila (and the Fantasia Team) to help me look my very best, the very most "normal" that is possible for me.





Bonnie L.


How devastating to be diagnosed with breast cancer but how wonderful to have Twila Donley at my side playing a significant role in helping me through this most difficult time in my life.

My treatment plan included both chemotherapy and radiation, and, of course, the chemo caused the loss of my hair. This was quite traumatic for me - more so, even, than my surgery and the other physical side-effects of the chemo. When I looked in the mirror, a stranger stared back at me - an extremely unattractive stranger whom I didn't like at all.
I was no longer me. I had lost my identity.

Twila, however, helped me avert what could have been a true crisis of spirit. She not only outfitted me with a wonderful wardrobe of wigs and hats, but she also instilled in me her indomitable enthusiasm, optimism and joy for life. She has an incredible way of helping a woman see that she CAN be attractive physically despite the loss of hair but also that a spirited, optimistic attitude can make a woman FEEL attractive to herself and to others.

Twila started working with me before I lost my hair so that she could order for me a full wig and set of halo bangs that would match my natural hair color. This timing also allowed her to see my usual hair style which she duplicated in the wig so perfectly that it was almost uncanny.

Twila has also offered advice on how to care for the wig, care for my scalp and care for "me". She has made several adjustments to the wig at no charge, and has continued to buoy my spirits whenever she sees me. She is ALWAYS there for her clients.

Now, when I look in the morrow, I see the old familiar me. I not only like what I see, but I like who I am.

Twila Donley is a rare gem!
