About Shair Foundation
Shair is giving back, one wig at a time.
Shair is a nonprofit mobile wig salon founded by Janet McLain, cancer survivor and owner of Cancierge, a cancer consultancy and wig salon.
While Cancierge was an inspiration to help women thrive while living with cancer, it identified the need to give back. Shair provides the opportunity to help all women who need assistance with hair loss regardless of their financial means.
Meet Janet McLain
Janet McLain has worn many hats (and wigs) in her life! She graduated with honors from the University of Oklahoma with a Bachelor of Science degree and marketing minor. A mom of two sons, she has lived and worked in Oklahoma City ever since.
Janet then worked five years in the fashion industry where she became aware of the connection between a person’s self-worth and their style and appearance. As a cancer survivor, she knows what it feels like to endure difficult physical changes.
For 12 years, Janet worked in pharmaceutical sales studying pharmacology and the ways in which drugs impact the body systems. This Renaissance woman then shifted gears and started her own catering company, Saffron 59. She clearly understands nutrition and the value of food to one’s soul and body. In fact, Janet published a cookbook entitled To Serve.
Because of Janet’s personal odyssey with cancer, she is passionate about guiding others through their journey. With the varied hats she has worn, Janet has developed many insights she desires to share with others living through cancer. With her genuine warmth, heartfelt compassion, and her smiling demeanor, Janet instills positivity and hope!

Bringing Hope and Empowerment to Women Battling Cancer
Shair is partnering with Oklahoma cancer centers providing a much needed service to those who need assistance with hair loss alternatives. The providers will determine who is in need. These patients will be given a voucher to bring to the Shair van on the scheduled days to receive their newly refurbished complimentary wig. They will receive a salon experience right at their own cancer center.
