This is what I did instead of getting a wig They're just so cute with their little ears!

Krlyr - I actually went to the Debenhams make up section today and topped up on a few products so I think I'm just gonna try some new make up and wait for the hair to grow!
Yay well done....you will look great hun....and best of luck xxxxxxxxx

pictures of your hair cut are required then we can tell you if you would be better wearing a wig

No chance! I will hold my head high and 'work' the haircut but it is definitely not being documented with pictures

Concentrate on eyes with the make up. Nice soft brown eye shadow, little bit of liner, lots of mascara and nicely plucked and shaped eyebrows and you will look great.

Thanks for the tips! I'm not really one for make up (far too lazy!) so this really helped

Decent wigs don't slip...They have non slippy stuff under them and a wee slideable clip to tighten..

WHen Mum lost her hair because of the chemo she started wearing a wig before it started going..and you would never have know it wasn't her hair..it was so like her own..THe kids didn't even notice..Then once she got into the swing of it..you didn't know who was going to be in the house LOL..she's got loads now..and you never know if she's going to be blonde with red bits or blonde with brown bits..we take bets before we go in the house!

And we've all had a go of them..her sister (my aunty) tried the short blonde one on at xmas and it just looked like she had streaks put thru!

Haha sounds like your mum has fun with the wigs!

Some of them can look so natural, you're right! When I went to look at wigs the other day I went in and didn't even realise that all the staff were wearing them. It's incredible how realistic they can look

Ohh, decent wigs do slip!
Mine was bloody awful, as are a few friends!
I used the £100 NHS voucher, and my Mum paid an extra £150 (so £250 in total)!!

Got a few friends who aren't happy either!
