Good on you LisaJHM,
l have been thinking about Chemotherapy as I will have my plan in the new year, as I’ve just had surgery a week ago.
At this stage I’m not worried about loosing my hair as it will grow back.
But I say that now lol..... but who knows what my reaction will be when it actually happens.
I have shoulder length hair, and I’m thinking of getting my hairdresser to crop it really short on the sides with some pink highlights on top that I can spike up.Not sure on how it will look but if Chemo is going to take my hair it can take my hideous hair lol....
I have a local wig library if I wish to borrow a wig, most likely wear head scarves as there are some really nice ones on eBay.
As with other side affects take one day at a time, I’ve spoken to a lot of women and everyone’s experience has been different, but the one thing I have heard from everyone that it is doable.
Sounds like you’re just ahead of me in treatment, keep me posted on how you go.
