I’m in the US, but I’ve had more clients than I wanted who needed to regain their self esteem and looks after losing their hair. Some people have been comfortable with a snood or scarf only. Others wanted a ‘wardrobe’ of wigs in fun colors and styles.
Would she be willing to try a global brand wig, like Raquel Welch? Their human hair wigs are 1.5-4 oz. I’ve ordered so many for sick clients. Trying to mimic the natural hair and color is so hard and not very successful in my opinion.
If her hair is curly, how about a wavy or straight cut in a similar color with some high or low lights? Sporting a different do might just garner some unexpected compliments. “Oh, I love your new cut” “Wow, I should get some highlights, too!
A professional wig maker would be expensive, I’m sure. But educate yourself on brands and wigs that are comfortable for bald scalps. Wigs come with about 30% more hairs than an average head, so thinning is necessary. I would think that a wig center that specializes in cancer patients will be the best bet.
In the US, Oncology clinics often carry literature related to appearance during and after chemo. But, no matter where the wig is purchased, the stylist is the one who will make it work.
I wish the best for you and your lovely client.
