I am tired of drawing my eyebrows or wear a hat every morning.

I finished chemo on 1/27/21

    Feel ya!! I had my last one Dec 10 and my hair is finally coming in! I think about a month more and I’ll be wig/cap free! Eyelashes and brows are thin but coming in.

    Hang in there!

    I finished Oct 29 2020. I lost my eyebrows and lashes 2 months after chemo but they grew back within a month. My hair SLOWLY came back. I stopped the wigs and caps about 2 weeks ago so hold tight it will happen.

    My eyebrows & eyelashes came back quickly, but it was about 6 months before I could wear my 'real' hair again.It was super curly and fun for about 6 months and then all of the sudden it was back to normal. It seems like forever when you are going through it, but eventually is will become a more & more distant memory.
