Can FSA or HSA Cover Your Wig? Here's the Deal
Your Flexible Spending Account (FSA) or Health Savings Account (HSA) could be the hidden hero in your hair loss journey.
bLUXE Owner and Hair-Loss Solutions Specialist, Heather Cohen
For people dealing with hair loss, the physical and emotional challenges are only part of the story…
There’s also the cost! What most don’t know is that, in many cases, you can use your pre-tax healthcare dollars to help cover the expense. A wig can be considered a qualified medical expense and eligible for reimbursement with pre-tax funds from an FSA or HSA under specific conditions. And if you’re working with your insurance, b.LUXE is here to help make it as easy (and stress-free) as possible.
FSA & HSA: Beauty + Health in One Swipe
Think FSA or HSA funds are just for prescriptions and copays? Think again. If you’re struggling with hair loss caused by medication or a medical condition—such as alopecia, hormonal imbalance, stress, or treatments like chemotherapy or radiation—you may be able to use your HSA or FSA funds to help cover the cost of a wig.
Insurance Reimbursement
Depending on your individual insurance plan and circumstances, you may also be eligible for full or partial reimbursement from your health insurance provider. Coverage varies, but many of our clients have successfully used their benefits to help offset the cost of their wig or topper. At b.LUXE, we are uniquely qualified to assist you through the insurance reimbursement process and can provide the necessary documentation and guidance to help you maximize your benefits.
Yes, We’ll Help with the Paperwork
We know insurance can be confusing and overwhelming—but that’s where your friends at b.LUXE come in. We're here to guide you through the process and help you gather the right documentation to submit your claim with confidence. Our goal is to make everything as simple and stress-free as possible.
We’ve helped many clients use their pre-tax dollars to cover the cost of their wigs, and while reimbursement is a great outcome, what matters most to us is seeing our clients walk out standing taller, smiling brighter, and feeling like themselves again.
It's important to note that every insurance policy is different, and b.LUXE cannot guarantee coverage. Typically, to qualify, you'll need a doctor's prescription or a Letter of Medical Necessity stating that the wig is medically required—not just for cosmetic reasons. Be sure to keep all related documentation and receipts, including those for wig maintenance, cleaning, or repairs. We always recommend checking with your provider before your appointment to understand what your plan may cover.
