Hair changing
Hello ladies!! Just thought I would post a photo of my hair after my latest cut since chemo ended.My hair was very curly as it grew back,but now,almost 18 months past treatment,it is straight again.I loved the curls,but I also love how everything seems to get back to where it was before(almost!)I hope you are all doing as well as possible.Cheers xoxRobyn

Oh....and the non existent eyebrows? Thank goodness for eyebrow pencils - saves on waxing I suppose!

Oh....looking fab Robyn!
Just updated my profile pic too - curls have gone & feel like my hair is just about back to how it was. As well as curls, it came back really white (think poodle!) but has darkened a little to a light blond sort of!

I should have said 'my new profile pic!!' Sorry! You can enlarge it though by just spreading it with your fingers.Does that make sense?

Hello you!!!! My hair is thinning a bit lately,and I am wondering if it's the Tamoxifen.But I don't really care,as I feel really healthy and well.Nice to hear from you.Cheers Robynxxx

Is it your profile pic? I need glasses, to small for me to see.

How do I see the pic Robyn? I am nearly 12mths post chemo so very interested to see your pic.

Hi Robyn,
I haven't been on the site for a very long time, nice to see a post from you.
I am 2 years post chemo and my hair is quite long, well its sits on my shoulders and it has a wiggle, not a curl and not straight. I have noticed that I lose quite a bit of hair I think its the Tamoxifen.
It has taken me some time to get back to normal and I am told that whilst we are on meds we will never feel completely normal.

Hi Robyn, looking good! I'm now over 2 and a half years down the track from the end of chemo and my straight hair is definitely back, though not nearly as thick as it once was. It is also slowly becoming lighter again as it came in very dark after chemo, which took a bit of getting used to as I'd been a "practising blonde" for many years! Still haven't got much in the way of eyebrows (again after having pretty thick ones) so I guess that won't change anytime soon - getting used to using eyebrow pencil which seems to fool most of the people most of the time :-) Best wishes, Jane xx
