Hi Majella
First up I would recommend going to a Look Good, Feel Good session.... that way you can try before you buy... Second to that, I would recommend going to Starkles in the Myre Centre, City. (There's one at Carindale, but the Myre Centre is bigger and I found the assistant more helpful)
I have a wig but now find it too hot to wear.... it's like wearing a furry/woolie beenie... however, when I first lost my hair I needed it to feel/look 'normal'... it took a while to get use to the 'nude nut' look. Given the weather I'd go for a cotton bandana or try some pretty scarves.. a metre of material from Spot light or Lindcraft!! I know some women who look absolutely stunning in them....
A friend of mine bought a couple of 'funky' wigs from a Wig Outlet Store in Yatala... so that could be worth a try as well...
Good luck.. and remember it's only for a short time. I started Chemo in May (lost my hair within two weeks of my first round) I finished 18 weeks of Chemo about the end of August... and now I just wear a cap or a hat. My hair is short and curly... but I still don't have a fringe!
keep smiling
