Hi Monique, sorry that you've had to join us here, but the plus side is, there's a lot of lovely supportive people here! Going down the wig route is entirely personal. I decided to get one before the hair fell out. I'm a Physio, so I've found it easier not having to explain things to new patients all the time. It is a bit uncomfortable to wear all day though I've found. I wear caps or scarves everywhere else though.
As a teacher, you would only need to explain once, and the kids wouldn't care what you wore. It's up to you. I'm not bothered by the occasional looks I get out & about rocking my blinged up caps. It's all about the accessories! Have you been to a "Look good/feel better" clinic yet? They're fantastic!
Take care,
Kristy
