Hair loss
Hello Ladies,
I've just finished round 3 of AC and still have fluff on my head.
Has as anyone experienced this? Shouldn't I have a smooth head by now?

- LMK74MemberHaving no eyelashes or brows just really makes you feel like a cancer patient. Maybe by xmas my hair and lashes will be back.
Hulos, I'm glad your feeling better about yourself. - HulosMemberIn addition to above, i got up one morning last week to find my eye lashes had appeared, not as long as before...
Sounds weird but it seem to have appeared overnight as if i had eyeliner put on, thats how it seemed. My face no longer looks with that chemo look and i have more colour on my face.....feels good. - LMK74MemberGood on you Hulos, I will be glad to have hair again, sick of the bald look now. At first I rocked the look as it was summer but now I'm over it lol.
- HulosMemberHi, I'm 7 weeks post chemo, 4 Ac & 12 other, i lost my hair before the 2nd AC. Then shaved it off so to not look weird.
My hair is pretty grey now, never was before, but i believe it can change, however its no longer sparse and is looking thicker than it was say 4 weeks ago and with
darker shades around. It is looking a little messy around the ears but who cares, its my hair and i think its looking quite trendy. .lol
I have no intensions of colouring..going all ala naturel. - LMK74MemberI still have fluff on my head after round three of ac. My eyelashes and brows are nearly gone. As for the short and curlys still haven't all fallen out but sparse.
- primekMemberMy hair starting growing back.on taxol, completely white. I clipped my hair when it started coming out. Some short bits remained until after round 4 of AC.
- ZoffielMemberMine grew in patches all through treatment. Just enough to be annoying. My pubes did this weird reverse brazillian thing which I won't describe in detail, suffice to say it was a WTF situation :)
- AfraserMemberI always had a few hairs that stayed put, particularly around the hairline, even after a few doses of A/C (I didn't shave, jut cut very short). And my hair did start to grow back on Taxol.
- UnicornkissesMemberI was bald by the end of 3 FEC. But it has started growing back during taxol, fine grey and sparse and only stubble, but encouraging. I don't think taxol is as hard on hair loss.

Hi I am having my 4th AC today. I shaved my head after no 2. I think my hair is growing again is this possible?????
I have 12 weekly Pacitaxel to start in July. Will this make the rest of my hair fall out.
I suppose we are all different.
Still so many questions after 3 months on the roller coaster.
Regards to you all
