    Pam,

    I swear by a product called Hair Maniupulator by the brand TIGI BedHead.  It's available in most drug stores in the hair aisle.  It's a wax type-of product and you just put a little on your hands and smooth down all the wonky parts.  It's expensive but a little bit goes a long way.   There are lots of other waxes and pomades on the market and any of them would probably help to tame the crazy chemo hair.  Also-headbands will be your friend while you are growing out your hair.  I just embraced my inner punk rocker, though, and spiked it up.  Actually, liked the short hair so much that a year post chemo I'm still getting it trimmed to stay on the short side.

    Amidala,

    Thanks I was also thinging of the spike look which I like of other people so we will see. I have heard of BedHead I will have to get some.  Thanks I forgot about the wax stuff, I guess because I never had to use it.

    Hope you have a great holiday.

    Lots of hugs

    I'm triple negative so I'm on nothing which is both liberating and scary as heck.  There are some studies that lots of exercise and really healthy eating are great for triple negative patients especially, so I am considering my gym membership and all fruits, veggies and quinoa I eat as my prescriptions.
