Professional Scarf Wrapping Tips
Anchoring your beautiful scarf to the baldness on top
- Choose a lightweight cotton underscarf, a small square tied at the base of your neck. Cotton tends to stay put, creating an opportunity for expression of power over something in your life, at a time when you might feel a weenie bit powerless "Stay Put!"
- Try using a stretch headband over your late hairline, and pin your scarf to that
- Avoid those lovely silk scarves because they tend to retain head heat and you've got enough things to be hotheaded about already!
- Experiment with a lightweight undercap from Amy's Presence at:
http://www.amyspresence.com/
Look for the soft cotton snug caps. A lovely rayon scarf ties or pins beautifully to one of these comfortable undercaps - If you simply must have silk, and you lost the poster putty, try to use it as a loose overscarf. Maybe choose a thin shimmer of silk to tie around a chic cap so you get the glam without the sweat
- If a lace cap and an overscarf still don't feel like the cake's been frosted, then pop on one of a variety of these great hats!

Back When I Had Breast Cancer............
Breast cancer - with me heedless to my high risk category - sat atop my worry hat like a bouncing tassle. Early onset menses, no childbearing,........and the third sign escapes me right now.........those three had earned me the HR designation, but it had run off me like Spring rain off a metal roof. I simply hadn't paid attention. It was only my second mammogram - and I had had my yearly provider exam within the month.
But intuition caught me by the throat when the "need for additional study" letter arrived, and I rushed off to take care of some of those other items on the list, still glowing like neon. The one bright and positive event I scheduled was the date for my "Shaddah", my conversion to Islam - two weeks (it turned out) before the pending surgery. From the conviction in my heart that I had found my spiritual home in Islam I claimed the strength I would need to face an uncertain future.
The next mammogram showed a mass with irregular borders and the radiologist rushed me into the Ultrasound Room - where her suspicions were confirmed, but I wasn't told. In the evening my Primary Provider called me with a question: "why hadn't I told her about the lump?" I didn't know about any lump until that phone call when she told me where it was...............and I folded my elbow and placed my index finger at the spot she described: "about 1 inch at 1 o'clock"!
No one else, no family members and no friends, knew about the likelihood of my having breast cancer. A chronically healthy woman, I truly believed I would be the exception to the 3-Strikes = High Risk rule. My Nurse Practitioner had called to schedule a "first-thing Monday morning" appointment to discuss surgery and the ensuing year as a breast cancer patient.

- Hair loss due to medication is a greater risk for females than males, because breast cancer in women is the most common kind of cancer. Like most cancers, breast cancer often requires treatment in the form of chemotherapy. Women are also at a greater risk of having thyroid disease which often requires radio active treatment. This too causes the hair to fall out. Many of these treatments will cause complete baldness. Luckily, this type of hair loss is also temporary and may subside when the medication is stopped.

- I think the chopping off of the hair is something all chemo patients share after the first wake up with a pillow covered with your hair. I was a ball cap wearer myself, but your collection is wonderful for women. Well done and 5 stars to you.

- Found your lens while working on our store. What a great resource! Thank you so much for listing our scarves from Zia Moda.
Wanted to correct on link that is broken, to our Santorini hand loomed scarf . We've also added a collection of square scarves that are perfect as headscarves - and have a section for how to wear scarves that I hope everyone will find useful.
All the best!
