No. Hair loss depends on the type of chemotherapy and other cancer treatments you receive. Some treatments may cause hair thinning or hair loss, while others may have little or no effect on your hair. Ask your healthcare team what you can expect from your specific treatment.

If you expect hair loss, you can start exploring wigs before treatment begins. Choosing early gives you time to compare styles, colors, cap constructions, and sizes without feeling rushed. If matching your current hair is important to you, taking photos or saving a small hair sample before hair loss may also help.

Look for a wig with a soft, lightweight and breathable cap. Features such as hand-tied construction, soft materials, a smooth inner cap, and minimal pressure points may help improve comfort. If your scalp is particularly sensitive or irritated, ask your healthcare team about what materials or products may be suitable for you.

Start by measuring your head with a soft measuring tape and compare your measurements with the wig's size chart. Measure around the circumference of your head, then check the front-to-back and ear-to-ear measurements if provided. An adjustable cap can offer a more flexible fit as your hair changes.

Yes. Glueless wigs can be an option for people experiencing hair loss. They are designed to stay in place without traditional wig glue or adhesive. For a comfortable fit, look for an adjustable cap and a construction that feels secure without putting unnecessary pressure on the scalp.

Follow the care instructions provided for your specific wig. In general, use products formulated for wigs, avoid unnecessary heat, and handle the hair gently when brushing or washing. When you're not wearing it, store your wig properly to help maintain its shape and condition.
