@Kerry-Lee47 If it's any comfort, most women seem to cope with losing their hair better than they expect to. You do get used to it rather quickly, and there are unexpected small pleasues like the sensation in the shower, and the savings in money and time not having to deal with hair care! While you do have to learn to cope with looking like someone who is having cancer treatment, you do benefit from the kindness of strangers as a result. One of the first things that happened to me when my hair went was I was given a free ink cartridge when refilling the printer at home! A little thing I know but $25 is $25 and the man was so jolly & nice! Big hug, K xox
