Hair Hair Hair - Another question

Ann, I love how you put it- our standards have really changed. I am almost an inch, and it 's the same mix of dark brown with a few sprinkles of white hairs. I bet I'll wear my wig through new years- but if I HAD to go out without a wig at least i have complete coverage as of right now!

It's funny, Lumpy - I get so many compliments on my hair from complete strangers now.

Those that know me, gush about it too, but then in the same breath say "...but I could NEVER do that!!!"  Which pretty much negates the compliment.

I'm going to give it until Xmas before I decide if'n I'm going to start colouring again -

I'd REALLY like to not have to, but I REALLY don't want it to make me feel older, either..
am sure you can all relate to that! 

I love it!

Did you cut off white fluff or evened out and styled it?

AEM, You look great! Love the color and style on you.  Have you ever worn your hair short before?

SpecialK, My hair was the same exact color as yours when it came in.  My fuzz started showing in April.  Mothers day I colored my hair.  I am 21 weeks and have cut the sides and back 3 times, my top is growing so slow. 

I can't get pictures to post for some reason??  I've tried to publish my photos to an on line site, still won't work!!

Love seeing all the beautiful pictures. 

AEM:  You AND your hair look great!

Thanks guys - I was so happy to get some highlites in there - I had used a temp color which took care of the white fuz thankfully I got rid of that on the first cut. Then my hair was just "sharpie" black..lol. This time my hairdresser had to strip the color first before getting the highlites in there - seems like this cut really put it in good condition and thickened it up. I just want the bangs and the back to come in a bit more - then I'll keep it like that

AEM - you look fab!

TN - hang in there you are only about 5 weeks pfc. The first 4 weeks chemo is still doing its thing. So right now you probably only have a weeks worth of growth - watch how fast it will take off in the next few weeks !!!

AEM47, thanks for your encouraging words.  I did not think I would be so anxious about my hair.  But it turns out that I  am.  I thought that I wanted my tastebuds most and am happy to taste food again, but now I want to look like myself. 

rn4babies, I am hoping for similar results.  Many animals grow thicker hair as winter approaches, maybe we will, too.  I am encouraged by your results. 

Carrol2, wow, you look great. This is encouraging.  It is better than just looking at yourself in a mirror.  Unlike many on here, I will be content with my white hair to return.  I think I would be happy with any color hair.  Thanks for your help

AEM

What a great cut and colour!  Gosh I can't wait until Herceptin is done in January so I can catch up somewhat LOL!  I do have full coverage and have pretty much ditched the wig for hats.  I have yet to have a trim but I think I might in the next couple of weeks to tidy up the nape.

Like Schiatzi said hang in there.  It does feel like it takes forever to grow but it will grow. I'm almost 6 months PFC and it's still not quite a good Judy Dench yet, almost though. 

I had a funny thought while looking at the hair growth- eye brows- yes! Unibrow not so much. As I was plucking the unibrow hairs I wondered, ( perish the thought of plucking a good eyebrow hair) but,... Since eyebrows and lashes fall out a few more times over the next year due to all being synchronized by the chemo- what if I randomly plucked an eyebrow here and there over the next few months? Could I create a randomization quicker and not go through a year of falling out and coming back??



Just a question- not sure re results.

aem i love it!!! great look for you!!
