Wigs

Hi Janice, I chose to wear a wig for the majority of my bald time. In the early period when it was hot , Feb and March this year, I alternated between wig, scarves and nothing, but as winter approached I found the wig very comfortable.I ended up with 3 wigs. The first one I purchased at The Individual Wig in Darlinghurst. It was OK, but not great. While in Melbourne I went to a shop on Swanston st called Creative Wigs, and I found the best wig for me. No one could ever tell, and being a whole sale place it cost me about $375 (approx). It was so good, that as it started to wear out, I replaced it by phone order with exactly the same wig, and now that my hair is regrowing, I take it to the hairdresser, and show the style and colour, and ask for the same. This was a synthetic wig, it fitted well, and looked very natural. Being synthetic meant that nothing other than a wash and shake was required. Human hair requires lots of styling, and they are expensive. The one thing that I enjoyed about wearing a wig was that my family were able to forget for a while that I had cancer if I looked well, and a good wig can help to achieve that. My 4 children are all in their 20's, but when my 22 year old daughter made that comment, I realised how much my cancer had affected them. Love Chris xx
