Description
With over 40 years in the beauty industry and 35 years specializing in wigs and toppers, Zee—owner of Split End Salon Studio in Clinton, New Jersey—has turned a deeply personal mission into a professional calling. This foundational course shares her knowledge, passion, and expertise, all rooted in compassion and purpose.
Zee’s journey into the world of wigs began when her mother-in-law, battling aggressive cancer, struggled with the discomfort and unnatural look of traditional wigs. That experience sparked a lifelong mission: to help people feel like themselves again. Since then, Zee has dedicated her career to helping clients regain their confidence through custom wig and topper solutions that truly fit their needs—and teaching others to do the same.
