    Hi @Crusty I just love your wig.  If you don't mind me saying, your eyebrows look great too.  Can I ask if you had them tattooed or are you a whizz with a brow pencil?  I am starting chemo shortly and my GP suggested I tattoo my eyebrows (they are pretty sparse at the best of times) but when I checked the prices it costs over $600 which is out of my league.

    Hi there @Crusty Wow that’s a beautiful wig!  But I think you rock it bald too. I couldn’t find any decent wigs that didn’t cost a fortune and the ones from the wig clinic at the hospital all made me look like Justin bloody Bieber lol. And I found them too not and bothersome so I just got around in my bandanas. But honestly i think it you look beautiful either way. Margie xx

    Not sure if there is a wig clinic/library in Adelaide.  I may just have to rock the bananas.  But you look good with and without, @Crusty

    Hi @annsan I have very sparse brows and found Modelco More Brows brush on fibre gel from Woolies around $15 a good temporary solution and much more natural than an eyebrow pencil. Just a thought.

    Thank you @Romla @Crusty for the very useful make up tips, even whilst I still have eyebrows.  Hi @Joannie  the breast cancer nurse mentioned Look Good, Feel Better to me when I saw my Oncologist today.  She mentioned that they give you make-up too.  I am glad you found it helpful and you have encouraged me to attend a session too.

    @annsan I did a Look Good Feel Better workshop. It was nice. Good make-up freebies!
