HI All, its been a little while since I posted as well - Chemo & rads now both finished and my hair is looking pretty normal - I did go blonde wihich was a big shock when i looked in the mirror and even more of a shock for my husband when I came home - sent him a message to say I was on my way to prepare him.

Good luck for your next rounds and stay safe xx
