The Stylist Changing How Men Think About Toupees

Send us Fan Mail Lindsay Cole has lived about nine lives in the last few years. She’s a hairstylist, entrepreneur, mom, and someone who has had to rebuild more than once — personally, professionally, and quite literally. Within a matter of weeks, Lindsay’s apartment was robbed and intentionally set on fire, she lost nearly everything she owned, and her dad unexpectedly passed away. She talks openly about what came after, including experiencing mania, going to a psychiatric hospital, depression, divorce, motherhood, and figuring out how to move forward when life looks nothing like it did before. What I love about Lindsay is that she doesn’t tell any of it from the other side pretending she has everything perfectly figured out. She’s incredibly candid about what happened, what she learned, and what rebuilding has actually looked like. And then there’s the business. After more than 20 years behind the chair, Lindsay has found a completely new lane she’s genuinely fired up about: helping men experiencing hair loss through modern hair systems. We get into the stigma around toupees, why so many men quietly struggle with losing their hair, what these systems actually look like now, and Lindsay’s vision for turning this into a much bigger piece of her business. Lindsay is funny, open, self-aware and completely willing to go there. Also, she brought a toupee to the studio, so obviously we went there too.
