Eyebrow Loss with Docetaxel

I finished chemo in June this year and despite having now got a full head of hair, some eyelashes and hair other places too(!), the old eyebrows are still completely non existent!  I had the same treatment this time as 9 years ago but my eye brows returned last time.  It is only a small price to pay to keep the cancer at bay but on a day to day basis, it is a bit of a pain to have to draw my brows in and sometimes, I forget!  One time when I was still wearing my wig, I drew my eyebrows on with the curtains drawn as I had not put on my wig and later discovered that I had been walking around some shops with fluorescent orange eyebrows as I had used the wrong pencil!  Before I bite the bullet and get expensive tattooed brows, what are other people's experiences of getting their brows back after Docetaxel - how long did it take?

  • You may start a trend with your creative coloured brows. Go to the very best microblader you can find, research the heck out of it. Find the best in your area. Rob a bank or raid your budget and treat yourself to beautiful brows. After your journey you bloody well deserve the best. If your own grow back the microblading will look even better. I wish I had had it before chemo. Good luck.
