Wig wearers! When did you start going without?
Hi Ladies,
I'm 2 and a half months out of chemo and have quite a dark covering of hair on my head now.
It's so hot up here at the moment and I'm looking forward to the day I can give away my wigs!
But I'm just not sure when I'll feel right, I tried Saturday night infront of close freinds but after an hour I put the dreaded wig back on :(
Just wondering how much hair you all had when you decided to "brave it"?
Cheers
Sam

that's great news Sam, that has no doubt given you some much needed confidence so you'll be able to go wigless/hatless again or wear headgear no more. well done! xxxxx

- Well girls, Australia Day was THE day! It was hot as hot up here in the Kimberley and we were having a BBQ at my sister in laws outside by the pool. There was no way I was going to wear a hat let alone a wig, so I put on a bit darker eyeliner and my dangliest earrings and just went for it! If it weren't for all of your lovely encouraging posts I would never have dreamed about going bare. I am sooooo glad I did and so relieved to not wear those bloody wigs anymore lol. Thanks ladies xxx
- Thought that might catch on :)
Thanks ! My nieces said I was now magicnan :P

magicmum (nan)Sure did grow fast. Mine was the same colour. Probably had been for years, but I had been colour ing it. I put a colour in as soon as I could. Didn't want to be grey yet. Also would have had to explain at work when I took the wig off how I suddenly went grey. It was bad enough hearing the...did you have a fight with a lawnmower comments. It was all good natured and the people who made them had no idea I had been wearing a wig...it was that good. They would have been mortified if I told them. I just smiled and carried on working, happy with my little bit of hair. It was curly as when it grew back, but is now a dead straight bob again after two years. Cheers to all your lovely hair. Paula :)
