Martina Scanlan
Program & Client Coordinator
In 2014, Narda and Martina launched The Wig Exchange – San Francisco Bay Area with one mission in mind: to provide women experiencing hair loss with beautiful, high-quality wigs and compassionate, personal support. Since then, they’ve helped hundreds of women across the Bay Area and beyond feel more like themselves during a challenging time.
Together, they bring not only deep care and commitment to every client interaction, but also personal experience and professional expertise. They’re honored to serve this community and proud to be part of each woman’s journey.
The Wig Exchange SF Bay Area has received over 1,300 donated wigs and continues to grow through partnerships with local cancer organizations and support networks. From their Oakland office, Narda and Martina serve clients across California by appointment and through their online Wig Salon.
