CHESTERFIELD COUNTY, Va. β A Midlothian business celebrated breast cancer survivors and patients with a special event focused on building confidence.
Bombshell Wigs Galore hosted a free Wig Confidence & Cancer Awareness Event for women experiencing hair loss due to breast cancer. The event was part of Breast Cancer Awareness Month activities.
Lemeisha Weatherspoon said she created the event to support women going through difficult health challenges and offer a safe space for women who need a little confidence boost.
Marsha Sneed-Williams said that she did get depressed after her diagnosis.
"It wasn't the hair, it was like I didn't know how to pull me together. I felt like I looked good, you know, I at least look healthy, especially from being sick," Sneed-Williams said. "This is maybe my second or third time really wearing, being comfortable out, and I feel good."
The event featured live wig demonstrations, wig raffles and giveaways for attendees.
