To Wig or Not to Wig, That is the Question

This week I told my hair dresser about my breast cancer. I am still surprised when I tell someone and they begin to list other names of women going through this. I was given a name of someone through whom I can order wigs. I had time, so I stopped by her shop.

I found that wigs run approximately 200-300 dollar range, some a little more, some a little less. These are factory-made, not hand-made. I have kind of planned on doing hats, and this was more about getting information than placing an order. But the lady suggested I order soon, so that I can begin to wear it before my hair falls out, thereby getting used to beforehand, and others get used to it also. They take about a week to get in. By the way, this lady is in the middle of her breast cancer treatment.

So...to buy and wear wig, or not. That is the question. Advise or opinions, anyone??? Please email me or call if you cannot get the comments section to cooperate!
