When women are losing their hair to chemotherapy, they often immediately think they will have to purchase a cancer wig. This is not true, and many women forget about the option of buying a cancer head scarf. There are lots of benefits to buying a head scarf over a cancer wig. For example, in the summer your head scarf will let much more air near your scalp to cool you off, as opposed to a wig which will get hot and itchy. It can be very hard to wear a head scarf at first because it’s something you are not used to, but when you look at them as a fashion statement instead of a cover-up for hair loss it is much easier.
