Hair growth
Afternoon all, I guess this has been asked before and I have attempted to search so please indulge me. I am up to week 6/12 of paclitaxol. My hair has been growing feverishly since I completed ...
Hi Sunshine, happy new year! My hair started growing while I was still on Taxol - yes, it's a pity about the leg and chin hair but it's a package! Don't be alarmed if it comes back a different colour and texture, it can take ages to settle down. Mine was chalk white and frizzy at first. Finally settled to have a bit more curl than I had originally but also a lot less grey. I also discovered, well over a year after it had grown back, that my "shed pattern" had changed, got alarmed by more hairs on my brush than I had before. It too settled (I took extra biotin to help). Main message is that your hair has had a hammering, it's still highly likely to all grow back, but settling to a colour, texture etc can take a while. Best wishes.
