The novel follows the lives of four women: Sarah, a successful businesswoman who is diagnosed with breast cancer; Nancy, a stay-at-home mom who is struggling to cope with her husband's recent diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease; Judy, a widow who is trying to find her place in the world after her husband's death; and Maria, a young woman who is struggling with the challenges of being a single mother.

When the women meet at the wig shop, they are all at different stages of their cancer journey. Sarah is just starting to process her diagnosis, while Nancy is nearing the end of her treatment. Judy is still grieving the loss of her husband, and Maria is trying to balance her responsibilities as a single mother with her own health issues.

Despite their different circumstances, the women quickly bond over their shared experience of losing their hair. They laugh together, they cry together, and they support each other through the ups and downs of their cancer journey.

Through laughter, tears, and wigs, the women find solace, support, and a newfound sense of self. They learn to embrace their bald heads and to find beauty in their scars. They also learn that they are not alone in their fight against cancer.

Then Her Wig Fell Off is a powerful and inspiring story about the strength and resilience of women. It is a story that will make you laugh, cry, and cheer for the women who overcome the challenges of cancer.
