Ok it's been a while. Hope you are all well.
I had a bunch of my best friends over last night, including my hairdresser. Went from armpit length hair to pixi short.
Lots of champaign, lots of laughs, a couple of tears.
I thought it would upset me, but taking control is very liberating and you know what, I actually look pretty good with short hair.
Chemo starts Friday, bring it on.
Hi Linda,
I hope that your doing ok. Thinking of you. No rush to meet as soon as your feeling strong. I am glad you found the how to scarf helpful.
Love, Danielle xx
Hope you enjoyed the boats, I will try and meet soon. I looked at your how to scarf demo. A great help. My fave was the bun one. Ive been practicing.

Hi , my hair started falling out around day 15 after my first treatment,so you may be okay for wedding, my nephew is getting married on saturday and i have a lovely wig already for the occasion , i am also getting my makeup done to make me feel better, the only thing i'm worried about is people i haven't seen for a while may notice my wig then i will have to tell them about my BC , what do you do ?
I have purchsed wigs and have been wearing them ,i think its important to get one that suits you and once you wear it a couple of times you will get used to it ,i have actually had a lot of compliments whilst wearing my wig.
Around the house i wear a cap as its more comfortable.
Good luck with wedding
Hi Linda,

I wish you all the very best for chemo on friday. Goodluck xx

I never thought i would say i am relieved to be starting chemo next week but i just want to get on with it. My daughter's wedding is 10 days after starting chemo so hopefully my hair will all be there for the photos. I have been getting it shorter and shorter in preparation...
I would love to know peoples views on wigs. I have bought scarves and hats but can't get my head around the thought of wearing a wig. Anyone else feel the same?
Hi , I have also cut my hair into a bob ,I had my first Chemo 2 weeks ago and my hair has just started to fall out ,so i think i will get a pixie cut as well on friday ..... the hair all over the house is driving me mad .
