No, no way. Going through life she has to learn to accept what she cannot change. Her friends will not shave their heads for her, you should not either. Teen years are tough enough, but how would she explain it to her friends why her mom is bald also? Go wig shopping. Makes more sense.

Well ladies thank you for you're comments and honesty but my decision was to shave my head for my daughter..she is so happy that I did it too plus she's the one who asked me to shave my head..and honestly its the best decision I could have ever made because now when my daughter looks at me she just beams with a great big smile and that makes me feel great so id shaving my head is what she wanted well she def got it and i'm proud to be a bald mother supporting my newly bald daughter!!

I know this has been discussed before, but it may have been in the area of relationships and partners. But here is the link:
