has anyone made a fringe from hair lost because of chemo, to make a fringe to use when wearing a scarf(turban). If so can you give me any tips?
Can’t help there, Batty, but when I was in Claire’s accessories last week I did notice all sorts of faux hair products, one of which was a clip in fringe. Might be easier to find a way to attach something like that to a turban than trying to do something with your own hair?

what a good idea wish I had thought of that lol. I have just bought a fringe on a head band to wear under hats/scarves etc. I hate to be without a fringe as I have a very high forehead. It also has some hair down the side too, so I hope I wont look too bald lol. this together with all the headscarves etc I hve bough and the two decent wigs, will, I hope, last me throughout the nightmare bald period. I start my chemo on 14th so am up and ready for whatever it throws at me lol - good luck val xxx

Batty19, did you ever make a fringe from your own hair? If so, I would be interested to hear how you did it.
Hope you are doing ok. x
