So… you are going to lose your hair due to chemo. It’s pretty much guaranteed if your doctor tells you this is going to happen then there is not really anything you can do to stop this from happening. Sure, you might be one of the “lucky” ones who makes it 4 or 5 treatments in but eventually you will lose ALL your body hair! But, let’s not get off topic, today I’m talking about the hair on your head. If you can’t afford or don’t want to buy a wig or deal with wearing a wig, a good option is to wear a headscarf. They are very comfortable, come in many cute designs, are inexpensive and easy to wear, but still not the same as having your hair. As much as I tried to like wearing a headscarf, it still signaled to me, CANCER PATIENT AHEAD!! That was hard for me to get past because I was so healthy and I didn’t want anyone else thinking anything other than that. Hopefully, you can let your ego go easier than I did and embrace and enjoy wearing these cute head covers.
Here I am at another doctor appt. trying to put on a happy face although I still had a long road ahead.
