Sorry to hear about ur mom may she have a speedy recovery
I would not recommend a synthedic it is not neccesarily cheaper and it depenitly gives a un hair look
Go for a semi costum (costum out of box) in bklyn u can get them from 275 and up it gets washed and cut to ur liking and doesn’t have a high mantance to it and it will look real and make ur mom feel good not like she’s wearing a mom on her head. Good luck
