My hair as it is today

Isn't it funny that so many references say hair only grows 1/4 to 1/2" per month?  At that rate, it looks like your hair has about 5 years' growth to it! 

Hey, lady, you look great.

Hey Mary,

What a beauty queen you are! Your hair looks fabulous.

The picture in my avatar is pretty much what my hair looks like now. I have had tons of haircuts since I finished chemo in April of 05. The curls are finally gone although I did miss them at first but I sure don't miss the hell of straightening it.

Wow, your hair came in so pretty!  Mine never looked like that ...and stil doesn't.  I still have the dry, damaged-looking frizz and I'm four years out from chemo.

You should be the new Breck girl!  ......  Hey how about BC Mary for BC Breck in a pink bottle ... j/k since it's October.

Gad, your 'box blonde' looks great!!!

I started out as and today, 8 months after chemo, this is what it looks like:

  and .  And this is when it's combed.  "bed head" looks much more sparse (*laugh*).  I haven't dared have a hair cut to trim and shape it because I'm afraid what I have will just disappear -- it's so thin.

Awesome Mary!

maryL ,

Hi, Mary.  I haven't kept a hair scrapbook, but I did keep some scraps of my old hair before I had my head shaved.  My new hair is so different...I'm glad I have that little ziploc bag of the old me.

you have beautiful hair, btw.

Wow, your hair looks great.   I have to keep mine kind of short.  Today at work someone refered to me as the office chia pet.  The curls are getting more controlable.
