Dear Queenie,
I lost all my hair because of chemotherapy for cancer. Now I wear a natural-looking wig and I get compliments on the color and style.
Queenie, what do I tell them when they ask me who is my hairdresser? I don’t want to tell them it’s a wig.—Embarrassed cancer survivor
Dear Embarrassed,
Tell the person who styles your wig that you get a lot of compliments on your hair style and would be willing to refer the people to her (or him) but do not want anyone to know you wear a wig. Most hairdressers are very good at keeping such secrets.
