hair after chemo

Hi Anabelle, I finished my chemo late January and my hair has started to grow back quite dark as well - a good couple of shades darker than before.  I can't wait to dye it!  It's not long enough yet to know whether I will have chemo curls (previously I had very fine, straight-ish hair) but it definitely feels thicker.  I was so happy when it started to come back, although I'm still quite self-conscious so continue to wear my headcovers and will purchase a wig this week before I head back to work - I'm really feeling the colder weather now too.  I was lucky to not completely lose my eyebrows and they have returned they way they were previously.  My eyelashes were very sparse but have completely grown back now, just not as long as they were previously.

My sister-in-law is a hairdresser and apparently our short hair is very trendy right now :smile: Hubby gave my hair a very short clip when it started getting very patchy - I looked like a baby chicken with tufts of hair everywhere.  It's now much more even growing back.

Honestly, it's great just to have hair again and be past the awful chemo.

Keep rocking that hair growth ladies - we'll get there.
