I would totally get an inexpensive bright pink wig to wear just for these fun things. :)

I agree with Bonnie about doing your nails. That is one thing me and my daughter do together all the time. I was really missing fixing her hair in pretty styles. She had a dance recital that was coming up and I decided we would go have her nails done for it. She loved it. Now she is known as the child who always has her nails done. We do them at home, but on special occasions she gets to go get them done at the nail place. These days you can get really creative doing nails. Right now she is wearing some of the stick on kind that look like flowers. She loves it and often paints mine in some really interesting colors.

Just get a really pretty wig, like a red wig, and show her how to style it and make it pretty. That's what MY MOM did when SHE LOST HER HAIR. I have hereditary alopeicia and she told me that someday I would go through the same thing. Anyway, it's a good educational tool and your daughter can learn about alopecia just like I did, from MY mom.

I am sorry to say this but I had a very negative reaction to your posting. I cannot remember what I told my kids about their having a mom with no hair. I had lost my hair finally totally at age 19 so that was just the way I was. I wore wigs but don't remember ever playing "hair" stuff with my kids. We read, we watch tv, we played Legos, we did crafts etc. we went shopping for clothes and food and were just happy to be together. I think you need to focus on the positives. You are probably a very caring person, someone someone would love to love. when I met my husband to be - I was scared to death about the hair stuff - when I decided we were probably going to be a lifetime relationship I had to tell him. when i did he just laughed. we would make a great pair he said - I have no front teeth and you have no hair. I knew then this was my guy.. there are lots of nice men out there.
