HAIR, HAIR, BEAUTIFUL HAIR

Hi Girls

I am now on day 16 since my last dose of Taxotere/Cyclophosphamide (I had 4). My hair actually started to grow back about a month ago but it is a munted, dead, white, affair. Its really thin but already about a centimetre long! I laugh every time I walk through the breezeway of my house because I can feel it bouncing and waving as I move! Must look hilarious to anyone that I dared to get close enough. I dont leave the house without something to cover my ugly dome so my family and I are the only ones to see it ;-) I also have the thicker darker stuff coming through at the back and on my "cow lick" crown. My hair used to be strawberry blonde in my youth and I have been dying it to all sorts of funky colours since I started to lose that colour in my 40's (I'm now almost 51) so I dont know if this white fluff will also fall out or not. I am playing with the idea of a clipper number one soon, too but its sort of nice to look in the mirror and see something. I have always had VERY strong, dead straight hair with a mind of its own and this stuff has a slight curl to it... I am hoping for luxuriously tight curls - dont care what colour because a bottle can always decide that for me. I am also lucky enough that I managed to keep enough eyebrows to still see a line to draw on when I go out and I still have eyelashes to paint mascara on to. The bonus is.... I got that brazilian I was always too embarrassed to pay for! I am soooo hoping I get to keep it! You can see on my profile pic that my wig is a nice subtle colour (though I mainly wear turbans as they are more comfortable in the tropics) and I have attached a pic of the colour I chose to see out my hair when I started chemo. It started to fall out by day 14 post Chemo number 2. Hope this info helps.. one more thing - losing my hair was the most devastating concern for me in the lead up to chemo but when I went to my "Look Good, Feel Better" workshop I met three ladies who were wearing wigs and I had no idea! The wigs you can get nowadays are so realistic and mine (her name is "Coco") has visited my hairdresser as I have requested this colour and style when my own hair returns. Happy Hair Days, girls  <3
