People suffering from hair-loss conditions have been shopping at Strut Hair Solutions for the past 13 years.

“They took, I think it was the officer counted, 36 wigs, which was about a $25,000 value,” Gibson said. “Then they got maybe 26 hair toppers. They kept just grabbing the top pieces that we had, which was another $10,000. I keep about 400 or 500 wigs in the back.”

Gibson's stock is why staff could recover so quickly. Long-time regular Anna Stoner, who didn’t even notice anything out of place on Friday, is grateful the place she’s relied on for 10 years is still standing.“I had lupus and I had cancer,” Stoner said. “You know, being bald is good. I mean, it's fine. And people are very accustomed to it now. But if you're a kind of person like me, I don't look good bald. And so when I know that, I have a place like this to go to.

The store has a security system, but the alarm didn’t go off. Gibson said this emboldened the burglars to stay longer and steal more. “There's an event log that shows that my staff actually armed the alarm, and then when I walked in on Monday morning, it shows that the alarm was turned off, signal was received,” Gibson said. “So what happened at 3:00 in the morning?”The burglary occurred just weeks before Gibson is to open a third location, in Cardiff. Suffice it to say that she’ll be taking lessons learned to her new location.

“For San Diego, Solana Beach, don't get so comfy and forget to be vigilant, because that's what happened to us," Gibsons said.
