Wilshire Wigs Since 1967
Started in 1967 in Los Angeles's San Fernando Valley by the late Ralph Sampson (spelled differently than the Biblical Samson), it’s fair to call Wilshire Wigs & Accessories the original wig and hair goods super store. Almost 50 years later, it’s still one of the biggest out there, boasting the industry’s largest showrooms, with well over 1,000 wigs on display and tens of thousands more in stock. While never located on Los Angeles’s famed Wilshire Boulevard, Ralph, a recent transplant from Chicago, chose the name to convey the sunshine, glamor and optimism of his new home.
