Hi Anita, I also had long hair past my shoulders, and have lost the lot with chemo. I prepared by getting a wig and hats ready. My first wig was shoulder length. I took it to my hairdresser and had my hair cut into that style. My hair fell out about 2 weeks after my first chemo, so I had the remnants clipper end and wear my wig when I'm out. Hats at home as they're more comfy. Recently I purchased a shorter wig, and people just think that I've had a trim. I reckon if you're prepared, it won't be as bad, and there are some lovely felt hats around that are fashoinable. I also got onto YouTube and found a segment on how to apply makeup, so you feel brighter. Keep the lippy on, and it'll keep you bright. Sending you a big cuddle, Trace xxxx
