To shave or not to shave!
Hi all, my chemo journey begins this coming Tuesday. I've been reading a lot about hair falling out and the uncomfortable/sore scalp that can occur during this process. Just wanting thoughts as to if...
Hi Quest, I'm just coming up to my 2nd cycle on Tuesday. I had planned to shave my head this weekend, but my collar length hair started to come out last Sunday, & by Tuesday was coming out in handfuls. I was going to a place that day to look at headwear anyway, ( for women suffering hair loss for whatever reason). One of the lovely ladies offered to do it for me, so I got a buzz cut that day. For me, that was the best decision, as losing handfuls of hair was just so confronting. I was never a hat wearer, but I'm loving wearing them. It really is up to you, what you decide. Hope all goes well. Lyn
