Look Good Feel Better
The Look Good Feel Better program was founded and developed by the American Cancer Society, the Personal Care Products Council and the Professional Beauty Association in 1989.
It is a 2-hour workshop ran completely by volunteers that discusses beauty issues for women in cancer treatment, such as skin care, nail care, hair loss (wigs, turbans, and scarves), and fashion suggestions, such as ways to camouflage areas of concern during treatment.
Each group will have six to 10 participants with several volunteers, who are licensed beauty professionals. Participants will leave the workshop with a free kit of cosmetics, donated by the cosmetic industry. On occasion, one-on-one consultations may be offered.
