Shaving head
Hi i shaved my hair after my 2nd chemo back in November but since its growing it had grown back a completely different colour which is Grey im only 43 and dont want a full head of grey .mm thinking if...
Just give it time. Chemo knocks your hair follicles about something awful. My hair grew back chalk white, graduated to grey. It now has more colour (brown) than I had before diagnosis. But that took a couple of years to get there. Re-shaving just means your growth is set back and doesn't guarantee colour will come back any better or faster. A good hairdresser is an ally at this time! Your hair can also change texture. Mine is less coarse than originally, and the crazy frizz that grew back has settled into a stylable slight curl. We're all anxious to get back to normal, but it does take longer than you hope for many. Best wishes.
