There are some great scarves out there
I got most of mine from www.headcovers.com. They have all types along with hats, turbans, etc. They're pretty reasonable and have sales sometimes. Good luck with the chemo. I had six rounds of TAC and did pretty well with minimal side effects. Keep us posted.

Your local American Cancer
Your local American Cancer Society may have some free ones. The one here has some that other survivors have donated. They clean them and have people who can advise on how to put on a wig, etc. You can also go through the ACS website to order a free catalog from TLC, which offers many supplies for cancer survivors, including wigs and head coverings. They have a lot, and it's nice, but may not be the cheapest way to go. Your local ACS can also get you in touch with a support group called "Look good, feel better" where you can meet with other survivors and get hints on how to use makeup (often have free samples) and other tips. I found hats and scarves at Wal-Mart and thrift stores too.
Take care, seof
