My wife is halfway through chemotherapy, so we're throwing a surprise party Saturday for her called the "Let your hair down... or out... party" One of the things I'd like to display is a gallery of my wife with wacky hair styles.

So could the photoshop pros help me out with this? I tried to get a photo of her hairless, but that plan got thwarted and she's not feeling well at the moment. So it's really a challenge now. Below are a few photos I found on my PC.

Some Ideas include:
1)Purple Punk hair
2)Afro
3)Bozo
4)Beehive - Marge Simpson
5)Pink
6)Wilma Flintstone
7)Princess Leaia (spelling?)
8)Mullet
9)18th century white wig
10)Face superimposed in Mona Lisa
11)Trump hair
12)Alfalfa (Little Rascals)
13)Elvira
14)Jasmine (Aladdin)
15)Little Mermaid
16)Einstein
17)Michael Jackson

I'm VERY appreciative of any help I can get on this. I'm not asking for perfection either, just something to have fun with.

Regards,
Scott

Sean, that's awesome you and your wife were able to make the most of it and keep the mood light. The oncology staff is amazed by my wife's attitude and say it's like no other they've seen. There's not a lot one can do, so as I see it, you can make the most of it and still live as much as you can, or you can live your life moping and solving nothing in the process.

I had to tone down the list. I've already left some friends in stunned silence after making a tasteless/morbid joke that only someone going through this could make. Plus, there will be parents and nieces present, so I really had to crank her down and it's not as entertaining as I first imagined.

TEN THINGS NOT TO SAY, (the toned down low-offense version)

"You know, you're really lucky, I've always wanted implants myself"

"I'm so sorry to hear, you know my cousin died from cancer last year"

"So I bet you're saving money on hair cuts"

"Don't worry, there are people so much worse off than you"

"At least it's not terminal, right?"

"Is this some sort of play for attention?"

"Better you than me"

"I know exactly how you must feel"

"So I bet this cleared up that dandruff problem, eh?"

"Yeah, I never liked your hair style anyway"
