Many plain and Liberty print chemotherapy beanies have been discounted and prices reduced. Bold Beanies are designed by Emilienne, a breast cancer survivor, with comfort in mind... using natural cotton breathable stretchy material to fit snugly, but not tightly, onto a sensitive scalp (from cancer treatments, alopecia hair thinning or brain head surgery for example). Our stylish silky soft headwear includes scarves and now Picc cover sleeves for chemotherapy patients and available for Women, Men and kids. 

You can also get a storewide 5 % discount by entering the code ' Summer5' at the checkout. 

Bold Beanies were designed by Emilienne many years ago whilst undergoing chemotherapy treatment for Stage 4 Breast Cancer when she wanted something super soft and comfortable to stay covered up in front on the family, keep warm but also stylish and pretty for a younger person going through cancer. 

These award winning cancer hats are made to exceptional high standards using the best quality cotton based stretchy fabric from Liberty Art Fabrics which is famous all over the world for quality and the best designs. Minimal seams and not irritating labels make for a comfortable beanie. The stretchy fabric allows the cap to fit snuggly but not tightly onto a bald sensitive scalp and stay put whilst you get on with your day or get a good nights rest. Not too hot or cold, the breathable fabric wicks away sweat and keeps the head at an even temperature. 

Will you go for a plain hat or get one customised with a name or slogan of your choice? Or choose from the wide range of beautiful pattered Liberty prints? 

Designed to be worn day or night, on their own or layered up under another beanie or head scarf... show us how you wear yours. Matching scarves and PICC line covers available now. 

Are you looking for Cancer Hats for Men? Are you a man losing your hair with chemotherapy treatment? or just looking for a soft breathable layer under all types of helmet and hard hats? STILL TIME FOR DELIVERY FOR FATHERS DAY!

Bold Beanies are simple soft breathable headwear for Men with Cancer Hair Loss. Silky soft, thin stretchy fabric beanie hats made with limited seams and naturally stretchy to fit snuggly on the scalp for the most comfortable fit... so comfortable you will forget you are wearing it and free to get on with your day or get a good nights sleep. They don't slip around like a scarf and provide a breathable, temperature controlling head gear which wicks away sweat too. 

Going gradually bald as a man and loosing your hair suddenly are very different things. Sudden hair loss from an illness like Alopecia or having chemotherapy treatments for cancer can leave you feeling very cold as well as feeling exposed and a lack of confidence. 

Men, like women will lose hair all over their bodies with aggressive chemotherapy. A man's face can look very different with no eyebrows and he will realise that eyelashes serve a purpose of keeping dust etc out if the eyes.

Felling comfortable and covering up is therefore very important to men as well as women with cancer. Bold Beanies come in two sizes and in an array for masculine plain colours (which can also be customised with a name or slogan of your choice) or fab Liberty Prints for men.

Bold Beanies cotton chemotherapy hats are so soft and stretchy they fit snuggly, but not tightly onto a sensitive scalp for a good nights rest. They are made in the UK from luxury natural fabrics and the highest quality design construction. We ship worldwide.

I know from my own experience that finding something comfortable and breathable is hard and yet very important when suffering from hair loss, especially from cancer chemotherapy as you lose your hair suddenly and feel the cold or more permanent hair loss such as Alopecia. 

You can't wear a wig or scarf comfortably in bed and they slip about when you move. I ended up wearing woolly hats in bed, but these were itchy and often too hot... so I would take it off... and then find myself freezing cold, especially as I had my chemo during winter months and lived in a draughty house. But these soft hats are great for warmer weather too as they are temperature controlling and wick away sweat.

Radio 1s Newsbeat offered a great article yesterday about Alopecia and the young and that the charity Alopecia UK is reaching out to the NHS to provide one human hair wig per year to anyone effected by the condition.

"At the moment, local health bosses decide how many wigs patients are entitled to in their area.

Alopecia UK says its data suggests in some areas patients are offered two wigs a year, while in others they aren't offered any.

NHS England said there is no nationally set limit and "all patients' needs and circumstances are different".

"Some people literally will not leave their house without hair on their head.  So if we want people with alopecia to contribute to society then there should be help there for all those who need it."
