Hair Loss Retreat 2026

Connect with the hair loss community.

Meet other women with hair loss, make lifelong friends, and spend four nights on the Gold Coast doing absolutely nothing but relaxing, laughing, and feeling understood? Yeah… Sign me up 😆

This retreat is something really special we love to organise. We’re just two girls with hair loss inviting other girls with hair loss to come hang out, relax, laugh, cry if we need to, and feel a little less alone for a few days.

This invite is open to all women with hair loss. Any age, any type or extent of hair loss, you’re safe with us!

It’s not a medical retreat, therapy program, or anything formal like that - just think “girls’ weekend away” vibe. Everything over the weekend is completely optional and it’s a super relaxed schedule.

If you’re looking for connection with a bunch of women who get it - you’re in exactly the right place 💛

The Ultimate 'Girls Weekend' Accommodation

We’re staying all together in an EPIC Airbnb setup (scroll through these pics for a glimpse!). The retreat spans across two beautiful houses right next door to each other and located walking distance from the centre of Broadbeach. The accommodation has pools, views, theatre rooms, and plenty of space for both group hangs and introvert recharge time.

Rooming info

Each bedroom sleeps two people with two single beds. Roomies do tend to become besties over the trip hehe.

What we’ll do

The retreat is mostly just chatting, laughing, resting, and spending time together - with some relaxed activities. The exact itinerary will be confirmed closer to the retreat, but here are a few things we did last year to give you an idea!

Themed party night put on by us
Banquet dinner out
Pamper afternoon
Wig swap afternoon to try on all our wigs lol
Most of the four days is free time: pool hangs, smoothie walks, shopping, movie room for introvert recharge time
Overall vibe: very chilled

FAQs

This retreat is for women living with any form of hair loss - alopecia, thinning hair, chemo, trichotillomania, wigs, no wigs, somewhere in between. You don’t need to be confident, new, or at any particular stage of your journey. If you’re craving connection with people who just get it, you belong here.

Absolutely not. You don’t need to share anything you don’t want to. Some people come ready to talk, some come to listen, and some just want a relaxed holiday with other women who understand without questions. All of that is completely okay.

Fill out the form below or DM @ohmy.holly or @hairlossboss.

Most people don’t! That’s kind of the magic of it. Many lifelong friendships have started at these retreats between people who arrived not knowing a single other person. It’s incredible how quickly someone feels like an old friend when you have the shared experience of hair loss.

Of course. Wear your wig, take it off, change your mind halfway through - there are no rules here. You do whatever makes you feel most comfortable. You don’t have to be a wig or topper wearer at all to come along :)

Extremely normal. Almost everyone feels that way. And everyone is very glad they came.

Your own travel to and from the retreat, as well as any ubering around etc that you may want to do during the trip. We will provide dinners and some grocery basics but you may want to do a supermarket run once you’ve arrived to get anything else you want for meals and snacks. Some alcohol will be provided and anything beyond that is BYO.
