Travelling Hairfree
HI all, I am hoping to be travelling to Hawaii in november but this will be my first trip with hairloss, I usually wear hats and beanies and scarves on my head and have not had the courage to walk ...

I always wore a hat or scarf outside mainly to avoid sunburn on my bald scalp. It was much cooler than wearing a wig during summer.
One of the best things was a "fringe" from the cancer council wig library. I was given 2 and I regularly wore both of them under my hat. One as a normal fringe and the other backwards so I had some hair on my neck line at the back.
I didn't swim publicly while I was bald as I have my own pool. A few months after my treatment finished I went to Thailand and by then I had very short hair. Nobody even looked twice at me.
November is 2 months away - is your hair growing back yet? If so you may be pleasantly surprised by how much you have in November.
If it's not growing back - sorry :-( but there are a lot of reasons why people have no hair. I was regularly congratulated on shaving my head and a lot of people thought I did it to raise money.
My standard line was - Yes I shaved for a cure - only sometimes I explained it was MY cure.
