Cancer/Chemo Wig

Where is the best place to get a wig for a Cancer/Chemo patient?
I don't want it to look tacky or obvious. She has short hair now so length isn't an issue. I just want the transition to seem as natural as possible. Obviously cost is an issue.

I had a friend in college who was going through chemo for breast cancer and she got a wig from Henry Margu wigs and you would never even know that it was a wig. They are a little pricey at about $120-$200, but I'll bet you could raise some of that money from other friends and family - a $10 pledge, etc.

For less expensive, Paula Young is probably the way to go. They are more like $50.

If you need help raising money, let me know - I'm sure lots of people would help.

So my aunt's pride is kicking in. I am not wanting to start another "question". $$$ Help from family is limited... What is the best way to start a "charity" without looking like your begging for money - especially if the person in need is being too "proud" to accept help?
