Is it disrespectful to people who wear headscarfs if you give the headscarf to cancer survivors? I don’t want to be offensive or rude. I am writing a story about a cancer survivor, and I don’t want to leave her completely bald. The character doesn’t wear headscarfs religiously, but just to cover her baldness. Is that okay?

i think its fine. maybe if you warn the readers beforehand then it shouldn’t cause a problem. i’ve seen others do it and nothing was said because they knew no one in this community would disrespect anyone in that condition. i would just let everyone know in the beginning or by a readerMessage when getting close to the scene.

I see no issue. We don’t have a lot of assets to use and sometimes we have to be creative
