"my hair is 1 7/8" long!  Ha ha!  Last time I measured it was 1 1/4" -yippee!"

That, my friend, is 50% growth! Way to go. 

RoBo - my eyebrows all fell out about 2 wks PFC. I'd recommend just using brow powder in the short term as mine grew back really quickly. I still have one brow which is a bit patchy, but it's nothing a bit of powder can't fix.



Since finishing chemo I have been taking Biotin daily and a supplement called Hair, Skin and Nails. I don't know if it's helping or not but my hair growth is good. One odd thing is my arm hair. Instead of it lying down against the skin, like it used to, it has grown back but sticks out. I'm thinking of waxing it off and hoping it comes back better. I'm not sure what to do. Also the fur on my face ... blergh!



I have also colored mine with a herbal, non paraben, no peroxide, no nasties colour I got at a Health store. It covered the grey stragglers well.

My eyebrows fell out about 2 weeks PFC too.  New ones were growing in as the old were still falling out.  Now they are all new, short and sticking straight out.  (and white)  I have always used powder since they're normally so light.  I hated losing my eye lashes to most but they grew back just as quickly.

Robo I've considered using minoxidil on my brows but then you have todo it forever. I'm doing it on my head because I hade some receding prior to diagnosis. Funny but chemo did a much better job replacing what I had lost. Seems this entire journey is a do over for me. What was small is now big (boobie prizes) what was lost I have now regained. I'm still hoping my rows & nails improve by august

Robyn - Congrats on finishing rads!! McCrimmon and Kiwimum you both look amazing. I can't wait to have hair like yours. The ultra short hair has a very VOGUE model look that's for sure.:) I think the key is to embrace the look 100%. You guys are doing that! Kiwimum - I love the earrings. Way to sport the sexy short dos - everyone.:)

I finally went topless this last Wednesday(almost 5 mos post chemo). So far no sympathy looks and everyone has been really sweet and complimentary.

I did have my hubby color it a natural blonde which is a little lighter than the original and it took just fine.

Becca - your hair looks beautiful! The "cut" really makes your eyes look cool.:)

 7+ month PFC... just had stylist re-highlight and trim and blow it out... 

Beautiful Becca! You look truly lovely.



Betsy, I can't see your pic. Only a blank space. It might be this tablet I'm on. Will try again later from a different pc.

KiwiMum, how are you and everyone over there (NZ) doing after yesterday's earthquake?



Thinking of you all and especially Christchurchers at this time.

It looks great! And I think you look good a blonde!

beccasgm and Bdavis you two look great!
