Wig questions?

So I think I'm ready to purchase a wig. I still have my hair but I am so tired of trying to cover up my ever increasing spot right in the middle of my crown, as well as wanting to prepare for the chance that I might end up shaving my head. My question is, while I'm not ready to shave my head yet I will probably start wearing the wig. As far as size goes will the hair I have now(not very thick but it is longer) stretch the cap out so it is unusable if/when I shave my head? Sorry if this question seems silly, but I really am so new to anything wig related. Thanks for your help!

Hi Katelyn

I know some of the above comments have suggested a topper. The only thing to keep in mind with that is that you will have to integrate it with your own hair every morning. If you can do that then I would also recommend it. If not you may like to purchase a wig. They're easier to use. It does get a bit difficult with long hair as you will need to tie it low and make sure that it doesnt leave a bump.

Let me know what you decide to do :)

Zoe,

Thank you for you response. While I feel like a topper makes more sense based on the hair I have left (however it is continuing to fall out faithfully), The spot I'm trying to cover I feel would be damn near impossible to integrate. It starts at the top of my crown( has started growing downward as well) and not a lot of hair to move around there. I think I need to go to wig store with someone I feel comfortable with and start trying things on! I will keep you updated. Thanks agin!
