What a lovely username 'ElizabethRose' two of my favourite names :) Welcome to our sisterhood Elizabeth not that you want to be here. Deanne and Robyn have already given great advice. I just want to say the getting it cut in a short style will lesson the shock when it falls out completely with chemo. I had a longish concave bob style but before I started chemo I had it cut quite short. My husband washed my hair for me when I couldn't manage after my lumpectomy and by the time I had my double mastectomy, my hair was just beginning to grow back from chemo. I used baby shampoo during chemo as your scalp can be very sensitive. Check any shampoo you use to make sure it has no harsh chemicals.
Good luck for Friday Elizabeth. We will be thinking of you.
