Look Good, Feel Better: A Women's Cancer Program
Look Good Feel Better is a non-medical, brand-neutral public service program that teaches beauty techniques to cancer patients to help them manage the appearance-related side effects of cancer treatment. Look Good Feel Better group programs are open to all women with cancer who are undergoing chemotherapy, radiation, or other forms of treatment. Certified cosmetologists provide instruction in makeup, choosing and caring for a wig and expert advice on using scarves and turbans. All participants receive their own bag of new make-up supplies.
