Tresses

Tresses Hairpiece Boutique, Newry & Belfast is recognised as Ireland’s leading supplier of wigs and hairpieces.

Established in Newry, County Down in 1988 by Therese Hughes MBE, Tresses has focused on delivering a unique personal service to patients suffering from hair loss, often due to alopecia or from the side effects of chemotherapy.

After witnessing the distress caused by hair loss due to illness, Therese, an experienced hairdresser of 17 years, felt compelled to offer a service which considered both the physical and psychological needs of a patient. So successful has been her approach to this sensitive issue, Therese received an MBE in the 2008 Queens Honours List.
