Hi again everyone
I just thought I would update you.
Although I had a slight bald patch on the top of my head after my first chemo, the hair loss basically stopped after that.
I have started having abraxane without the scalp cooling cap and hair loss is listed as a side effect.
I had a little bit of shedding after the first dose but it is negligible now!
I'm happy to say that people can't tell that I have lost any hair when I wear a headband. It's still shoulder length.
I have some greys coming through and can't colour them yet unfortunately.
I'm glad I chose to use the caps. It's not for everyone and there are pros and cons with either choice.
