Ritzy Rags Wigs & More Announces Hair Loss Awareness Month in July
ORLANDO, FL – Ritzy Rags Wigs & More, a beloved local business since 1990, is proud to announce July as Hair Loss Awareness Month—shining a spotlight on the often-overlooked challenges women face with hair loss due to genetics, medical treatments, COVID-19, surgery, alopecia, lupus, and more.
Martin “Leigh Shannon” Fugate, owner and renowned Bette Midler impersonator and local comedy icon, will be featuring real customers and local celebrities to demonstrate how lightweight medical-grade wigs and hair toppers can transform lives. Leigh will also offer personal consultations to guide individuals toward solutions, including referrals to skilled hair extension artists and stylists.
To make these solutions more accessible, Ritzy Rags will offer an exclusive 25% discount throughout July on all items in the store. Weekly demonstrations will take place, giving attendees the chance to see first-hand the power of a new look—and how hair can boost confidence, fight depression, and support professional success.
While the shop is already a trusted haven for cancer patients, Leigh emphasizes that women experiencing thinning hair from other causes also deserve compassionate support. ‘Hair loss is heartbreaking, but there is help,’ says Leigh.
Every October, Ritzy Rags partners with leading wig companies to donate 12 wigs to cancer patients with limited financial means. This July campaign marks a broader effort to raise awareness and empower more women through education, style, and self-confidence.
In addition to running his boutique and performing live shows, Leigh is also exploring a bid for Orlando City Commissioner District 3, recently vacated by Robert Stuart.
