Hair Loss when to Shave

I was told that my hair would start to fall out 14 days after first chemo and it did.  I managed to hang on to it for a week after, and remember going to my second chemo with still having my hair but with a scarf on as it was falling out in clumps.  I had made an appointment for my lovely hairdresser to come over the next day and do the big shave.  I had my Mum and Dad and in-laws there and my hubby.  I was really good about it, but I think it was hard on them.  Interestingly enough I had a friend and she managed to hang onto just enough hair that she didn't have to shave it off.  It was very thin in parts though.
Good luck. and enjoy the BBQ.
