Should I get a wig during chemotherapy?

Absolutely get a wig during chemotherapy to fight cancer. I would say whatever feels right to you. If you're comfortable being bald, or wearing scarves or hats, fine. I personally felt like I wanted to look as much like I normally did whilst I was fighting the cancer, and I bought wigs. In fact, I got wigs in all different colours and styles and tried to make it fun.
