Thinning of eyebrows after treatment
Hi everyone, I have come across a really good product that I have been using to fill in my eyebrows, which once I start Chemotherapy I will be using this product to put eyebrows on using one of the many stencils that they supply. The product is called fab brows. website is www.fabbrows.com If you’re interested have a look, the product is smudge proof, waterproof, comes of with washing face or make up remover. This will be my best friend once treatment starts. Sending hugs to everyone 😘
Cotton caps, crochet beanies free
I have some caps (one is bamboo cotton and very soft to wear) and crochet beanies to give away. I used them myself in 2018 when I had TC chemo. It’d be good to know they’re useful to someone else rather than sitting at the back of my drawer. Let me know if you’re interested. Take care everyone xx
Hot weather headwear
Its warming up in Adelaide. My scarfe and Hot flushes are making me warm. I can't wait to get them off when I get home from anywhere. Any suggestions? My sister said can't you take it off if you are not embarrased when you are out and I said im not embarrassed but its a state of undress like taking your undies off when you are wearing a skirt midway when you are out. She gave me a link to something called a coolcap. Ive bought 1 to try out.
Hairy situation - to shave or not !
Hello lovelies - I have FINALLLY started to see some hair sprout on my head after about 5 weeks of finishing Chemo!!! Having said that, its growing sparse and the growth is uneven height. Did any of you experience this? Did you try shaving it all off to get even growth? Anything else helped? Yours, -Folically challenged
7 months post chemo and eyelashes falling out!
I’ve made it to my 1 year anniversary. Survived 3 surgeries, chemo and radiation, now making my way through the delights of tamoxifen! I was so pleased with how my hair has grown back and eyebrows and eyelashes until my eyelashes started falling out recently and breaking off. Has anyone had this happen? Not sure if it’s the fallout from chemo still or the tamoxifen?
Chemo almost done...next is surgery. Hair growth questions.
Hi all, it's been a little while, hope you all doing well and this year brings you all good health and happiness. I am almost done with my chemo (AC and 12 weeks paclitaxel, 4 perjeta and another one (not sure of name), 2 more infusions of paclitaxel. Did anyone find bits of fluffy hair starting to grow already? I don't want to get too excited but am starting to notice some growth. Anxious and excited about my appointment tomorrow with the surgeon to discuss surgery options and how the tumors have responded to the chemo. Any advice would be appreciated. Still awaiting genetic testing results. Now the fun part. We have a family wedding in October this year and some other events and I am very excited for my hair to start growing. Any tips or advice. Scalp treatment or oils etc vitamins. Should I have a shave after chemo so the hair grows evenly and also what kind of length can I expect in 6 months or so. How did you hair grow? Lastly. If anyone is based in Sydney and would want to meet for a chat, support, pray , let me know. Would love to meet some ladies, we can encourage each other. Can direct message me if you like. Thanks and look forward to hearing your progress xxx
