I'm 5 weeks after my last TC chemo infusion. I had the cold cap for the first two but then gave up because I had a mile wide landing strip on top, and bare patches underneath. Where the cold cap worked best was at the front and back.
Last week there was nothing, but now the front, where my fringe was, is like a Brillo pad, and it looks like it's coming through dark, as it does at the back. Apart from a few scattered bristles, most everywhere else is covered in tiny white soft hairs. And then there's just areas where nothing is happening at all...
I was a rich thick dark brown before, and at 51 had hardly any grey hair (part of the genetic lottery I won!). I haven't minded being bald at all. In fact most people in my life loved the look. But I do not think I'm going to enjoy this next phase at all. I reckon I'm going to look a moth eaten mess...
