Wig argument

Hi guys,  hope you are all doing OK. Just a quick question,  went and got wig today,  even tho I really don't want one but thought it was the right thing to do.  When I got to the shop,  I realised I shouldn't be there,  but went along with it.  I think it's hideous and smells like doll hair.  I can't do anything with it and it looks like a bowl cut.  The whole situation has really upset me and I'm wondering can you return them.  The thing doesn't really fit my head.  I have a really small head and one size fits all adult hats don't fit,  I have to get kids hats mostly. I know I shouldn't have left the shop with it and went with my gut feeling of leaving without one.  I know once the grand scheme of things this is a small problem but it'd got me in pieces.  Has anyone else done this type of thing and anyway to make it better because I feel like I've wasted NHS money

  • My hair was falling out from day 10. I shaved it off using my horse clippers. Every time I went for an appointment thay kept on at me about a wig. I decided against it and wear a lot of chemo hats in funky fabrics I buy off Etsy. It would have been a waste buying a wig anyway as I have really bad rash from ear to ear round the back of my head. You have to do what's right for you and I know it's upsetting losing all your hair, but for me covering up with a wig didn't really appeal.
