    Hi Ruth,

    Sorry for the late reply.
    Have been wearing Freedom Hair for about 17 years. My first 2 vacuum/suction wigs I wore before Freedoms were made by a company in Australia and I then found Freedom here in NZ so have been with them ever since. They have worked out great for me, easy care/wear and yes you can swim with it on.

    Cheers
    Cheryl :)

    Hi Ruth, it was great to meet you too! I had a fantastic day and really enjoyed meeting you all, I come away feeling like I had known you all for ages! It was great to talk to others and hear their stories too, makes you feel not so isolated (if you know what I mean). Take care and I hope to catch up with you again soon :)
