BB Blog — chemo hair loss

When suffering sudden hair loss due chemotherapy treatment you still find yourself cold even on sunny days in the UK. If you're able to be sat out in the sunshine and make the most of the summer sunshine, then you will still need to cover up and protect your extra sensitive bald scalp from burning UV rays. 

Bold Beanies offers a wide range of headwear to suit all. Our original headpiece Bold Beanies beanie hats are made from thin stretchy cotton which are sublimely comfortable, easy to put on, and importantly temperature controlling, UV protective and sweat wicking. 

Our cancer hats provide a comfy base layer for under all types of other summer hats or headscarves.

Wear a Bold Beanie chemotherapy hat at night as a sleep cap when the temperature often drops so you stay at an even temperature to ensure an all important good nights rest. 

We offer cancer hats, headscarves, head wraps for men, women, kids and teens in styles and colour to suit all. 

PICC sleeves are also available to cover up your arm ports allowing you to wear any summer outfit, from t-shirts to vest tops or dresses without having to worry about your port snagging or being visible.

A local Welsh friend unable to have cancer op in England faces extra stress during her cancer treatment talks to BBC 

A cancer patient was told in her hospital bed in England that she could not undergo surgery because she lived in Wales.

Lowri Mai Williams, 42, from Powys, had been referred to hospital in the Midlands for her cancer treatment in 2023.

But it was not until the last moment that she was informed the operation had been cancelled.

My main aim when starting Bold Beanies many years ago was to provide stylish, comfortable and 'easy to put on' headwear for cancer patients at an affordable price; giving women of all ages a choice to stay fashionable even through hair loss. We now make chemotherapy caps for men, teens and kids too!

Made on the borders of Wales and England, using the highest quality natural fabrics, beautiful Liberty Prints and fun designer patterns to create Bold Beanies cancer beanie hats and other headwear solutions for hair loss such as head wraps, bandanas a different types of head scarves.

So comfortable you will forget you are wearing it. Natural, Breathable, temperature controlling UV protective as well as stylish. 

Bold Beanies Cancer Chemo Hats were designed by Emilienne after she lost her hair with chemotherapy treatment for Stage 3 advanced Breast Cancer at a young age. She found her bald head very cold, particularly at night time. 

Losing your hair suddenly makes you feel extra cold. Emilienne wore woollen beanies mostly but they were itchy and would get too hot and so she would take it off and then of course she'd get cold again... disturbing an already difficult night's sleep. The sheer relief from wearing a soft comfy breathable beanie that fit snuggly so was less prone to slipping around (as head scarves do, especially in bed) is felt by many. Perfect for day wear to feel less conscious of your hair-loss Alopecia and just get on with your day with one less thing to worry about.

It was important for her to stay covered up for her family as she looked very ill and thats when she realised the need for Bold Beanies. A hat with minimal seams, especially over pressure points and no extra irritants, like labels.

Bold Beanies hats sleep cap beanys bonnets skull caps... however you choose to describe them are silky soft stretchy cotton and so very comfortable you will forget you are wearing them, but with beautiful Liberty Fabric prints or fun prints (as well as a rainbow of plain colours ) you won't have to. Styles to suit everyone and at an affordable price.
