MayFrog Posted September 27, 2004 Share Posted September 27, 2004 Hi Randi.... Bandannas can usually be found in Work N Gear stores (like for construction workers.....they love bandannas!)....Walmart also has a good selection of bandannas with lots of different seasonal, feminine patterns in the Women's section near the pocketbooks and hat/scarf section.......I also went thru my closet, and found many shirts I didn't wear....cut out a square of material from the back.....and, voila, instant bandanna!! Good luck, Mary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimblanchard Posted September 27, 2004 Share Posted September 27, 2004 Becky got a couple of hats from American Cancer Society; they had brochures at the cancer ward at the hospital, and they were very nice. Curtis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhutch1366 Posted September 27, 2004 Share Posted September 27, 2004 The american cancer society has a catalog that has turbans, hats, bandanas, as well as breast protheses in a catalog called the TLC Co. The bandanas are a little extra generous, they have hats that have bangs with them, and the turbans are great for sleeping. I had a velour one for church and a terry cloth one for sleeping. The TLC catalog -- American Cancer Society. XOXOXOX Prayers, always, MaryAnn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pritchie Posted September 27, 2004 Share Posted September 27, 2004 My Mom's head was so small that I went to the little girls dept at Wal-Mart and picked her up some hats. One of my favorites was a Mary-Kate and Ashley brand(purple w/butterflies). Pamela Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaffie Posted September 28, 2004 Share Posted September 28, 2004 Wig shops. When my mother in law was taking chemo I took her to a wig shop to buy her a wig and they had everything imaginable for head coverings. I think most wig shops do alot of business providing head covering for chemo patients. Kathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
betplace Posted September 28, 2004 Share Posted September 28, 2004 I found a good supply of bandanas at Michaels Craft Stores for 88 cents each. I also had good luck with hats at close out places like Ross and Tj Max. Not that I ever wore them after buying them, I am just not a hat person!! I was happier with the bandanas! Your local American Cancer Society has a selection of wigs and will give you two of them free. You just need to go in and try them on!

Nushka Posted September 28, 2004 Share Posted September 28, 2004 I found mine in a catalog from the American Cancer Society. It is called TLC and has many choices. I liked the lovies the best...simple cotten caps...I got one of the wraps to make them look a little better. I also bought a cheap wig. The AMC has offices all over the country that actually have some free wigs. I tried there but they were all too large for me. You might want on just for special occasions.
