A journey ahead.
Hello all, this is my first post... At 34 years, I felt life was good, happily married, achieved my dream career and blessed to be able to spend time with little daughter. Life couldn't get much be...
Hey!
I too shaved my head 1 week into Chemo, and yes reminded myself it was temporary. I also lost eyebrows and eyelashes towards the end, but found if I wore black eye liner on the top lid you couldnt tell I had no eyelashes LOL. It made me feel better. I wore wigs for about 6 -7 months, they do get hot yes eventhough they have a lace which is holey. I bought 2 and they were so good you couldnt tell as my hairdresser cut them the style I always wore and strangely it was the same color as my hair!! In Spring last year I wore beanies and small hats.
Big hugs to you all...its daunting but you can do this! Melinda
