Bleaching your hair after chemo

Sunshine - I was always told that you should wait 6 months after chemo.  However, I don't think that included Herceptin and I know of a lady that dyed her hair while on Herceptin and it was just fine.

I would suggest you go to a professional the first time instead of trying to do it yourself.

I was a natural blonde before I lost my hair.  It came back this dirty brown/gray color.  After 6 months I started highlighting it, then putting low lights in it and now it looks natural blonde again but I have always gone to a professional for this.  I am too scared to do it on my own because my luck and my hair would come out brassy.  

We had to use the frosting caps for awhile because my hair was so short.

I too worried about damaging my hair so I rarely ever use any type of heat (blow dryer, flat iron, curling iron) on it and I do a deep conditioner at least once every 2 weeks.
