Hair growth after chemo - how do I look after it and will my 'normal' hair come through?

Hi everyone, finished my chemo at the beginning of May. Lost all hair.

Now starting to grow back but head hair is really fluffy. I had heard that it can come back like this.

My question is to I have to cut it to get rid of whats growing now or will if left alone will it start growing as 'normal' hair?

Thank you x

  • Hi, All my hair fell out with chemo except a strange small patch at the back. Around 2 months after chemo I had surgery and all my hair fell out around that time. Strangely I’d managed to keep my eyelashes but they fell out too then. I felt as if the fine fuzzy hairs fell out then I just started to look like I’d shaved my head and it looked like stubble. 
    My hair then started growing back dark and curly. It’s been around 3 years now since my chemo stopped and I’ve had many haircuts but my hair is now “nipple length.” 
    I just let mine grow for a while and would put a nice headband or something on in the beginning. I took pictures of my hair growth and wish I could include it here as I wanted to know about the process afterwards.
