If you have been told you may lose your hair, here is a list of vendors available to serve you.
All the Vendors advise you to call them before the effects of treatment have taken hold. A hair sample and a picture of how you like to wear your hair
will help them to make you look and feel your best.
Many vendors offer payment plans and discounts to cancer patients.
Insurance coverage varies.
For insurance purposes, be sure to have a prescription from your physician stating, "necessary cranial prosthesis."
As a breast cancer survivor myself, I understand the needs of private wig fittings

such as kerchiefs, etc. are available.
