Wigs for cancer patients are a big business. These wigs are made slightly different than the wig you might see at the hair dresser or beauty sales shop.

 

Another reason you may think about wigs for cancer patients is if you might be diagnosed with a form of cancer and may be looking to have chemotherapy yourself. So maybe it is time to give some thought to the subject of wigs for cancer patients.

 

It seems that a lot of women really love their hair. They seem to think it is defines them or makes them look pretty. Or that phrase 'Oh you have such healthy hair' makes them think lots of healthy hair means a healthy body. If this is the case the thought of actually shedding all of their hair, yes perhaps including eyebrow, underarm and facial hair to name a few, is scary. Of course this doesn't happen to everybody in the same way nor does it happen the same way with all cancer treatment chemotherapy. It depends on the type of drugs used in the treatment.

 

There are so many myths around wigs especially those who are supposed to be made for patients, that it is extremely easy even to the experienced wigs specialist to be carried away. They have even convinced people to cut and donate locks of their hair to the noble cause of manufacturing true "human hair" wigs. What a fallacy!
