Confidently You: Choosing and Styling Wigs that Look and Feel Right - Episode 2
In this on-demand webinar series, CURE partnered with Look Good Feel Better to demonstrate how to put on and adjust a wig for comfort and appearance for patients with cancer who have experienced hair loss from treatment.
In part two of CURE’s “Confidently You: Choosing and Styling Wigs that Look and Feel Right” webinar, Daniela Hernandez-Salas, a Look Good Feel Better volunteer, demonstrated how to put on and adjust a wig for patients who are undergoing treatment and experiencing hair loss as a result.
