Yes, this continues to drive me crazy!!! They've got pretty good makeup people on this show. Surely they could manage to make her look like she'd actually lost her hair from chemo?!?!? I mean, I could sort of buy that Laura is using makeup and drawing on eyebrows (although with what makeup? ah, whatever!) to make herself feel better, but going to bed like that? I feel like the point of the bald cap when they drag it out is to highlight her vulnerability, but it just becomes farcical when they don't make her up accordingly. She looks like a Centauri woman from B5 rather than someone who is undergoing chemo.
