Permanent Hair Loss?
I'm wondering if others like me have ended up with a degree of permanent hair loss? I've always had thick hair. No longer. I had AC followed by Docetaxel and now 15 months after the end of those ...

Goodness! I know everyone is different especially when it comes to Chemo. I had FEC and Taxol and lost my hair completely. I had long blonde hair and lots of it, it came back white at the beginning and then like salt and pepper, it did grow in like male pattern baldness. I am 9 months post chemo and have a full head of hair as it grew I checked for bald spots, but it really was a complete head. I also have a high forehead. I lived in wigs through Chemo. I also used Baby Shampoo, I heard that helps. It did come in soooo curly and eventhough Ive had 2 trims is still weird so I straighten what I have. I know how incredibly hard it is and wish I had more ideas of what may help.
