Any of you ladies have any wigs? Ive been losing my hair a lot lately so I'm just looking into them just to get an idea of what out there. There is a lot of choices and websites and they aren't cheap so I want to make sure that if don't the road I do need one I know I'm getting a good one.

Sorry I haven't had to look into them. Is the hair loss from meds? Could it just be temporary? What does your doctor say? Maybe try looking at American cancer society site to see if they have any info on wigs. Good luck and keep us posted.

My Mum evenly bought a wig from a maker who specialises in wigs for cancer sufferers. In the uk there is a discount scheme if you have either a hereditary hair loss or a medically induced hair loss. The one she had was so much nicer than those you can buy on line. But they are expensive.
