    I can't remember exactly how long, but it was a long time.  I was still wearing a wig after I completed 6 weeks of rads after I had finished chemo.  It seems like it was at least 4 months before I had any thing of any significance.   I know it's hard waiting but this too shall pass.

    Also anxious for hair regrowth! I finished my last chemo just under 3 weeks ago. Please grow fast hair! I'm thinking about taking prenatal vitamins, I've heard people say they make hair and nails grow fast.

    I am 6 mos out and have 1 VERY curly inch.  Started to come in a couple months post final chemo and thicken up nicely by third month...
