From the few people I know who have had cancer/have cancer, only one lost his hair and he did shave it off as soon as it started falling out. That being said he didn't care that he would be bald and just wore a lot of hats
It's true. I suggest finding a salon that works with Wigs For Kids, and also Friends Are By Your Side, where both provide free wigs and styling services. Your donations through those charities are a tremendous help :) Most of the time, people you see with wigs tend to be children that were struck with cancer. It helps them feel a little more normal in a situation that is anything but.
like a great many charities locks of love charges based on income, so families that cannot afford it get it for free and ones that have more money simply get a reduced price. heres some more info to dispel a lot of the bad things people want to say about locks of love. http://www.snopes.com/politics/business/locksoflove.asp
Also it is a little hard to worry about how you look when you are contemplating your own mortality and planning out the best way to keep your body from failing. There are bigger issues than vanity.
