MY NEW GREY HAIR

5 months or so after lkast chemo, didtn loos hair from first 2 chemos last April, but post operation, and 2 most horrid chemos ever, it started, so had it all removed.

It has grown now,, it has a mind of its own, no matter if wet or use gel,, will only go the way it wants to,, so 2 weeks ago went to hairdresser to get it tidy and cut,, as sicking up all over, looks much better now,,

I had quite often go out with no wig , not if im out at night with mates etcm, but in the day,,,and no wooly hat on now,, soo brave, but i dont care any more,

So asked about colour at hairdresser, she said ask DR, he says fine, no problem,, So i think May i will go get a colour,,, was wondering if the colour would cover the grey and some white streaks (anyone read Catherine Cookson?) Im like the Mallen streak,

So good to hear some of you here saying colour has taken,,, feelign much better now,, that i maybe be able to look simular to how i used to be and not like me mum,,, bless her,

  • Mine also bit curly on the top, hate that, leave it a little bit before you get a cut,  

    I didnt loose mine on the 2 sessions of chemo i had before my op,,, my op was last May nearly a year now,  then after the op and after i left hospital and recovered from Op,, i was to have 4 more sessions,, he said to me, you most likely not loose your hair with this chemo,, and the first 2 sessions, i did not,,,

    But i only had 2 of the 4 i was due,, as really suffered that 2,, very ill,,, but hair then stated to come out,, got fed up with bit of hair on pillow,, so went to salon and got it shaved all off,,, much better,,,

    Not sure if you can see, but if you clcik on my profile pic,, wonder if you can see the other foto of me with my wig on,,, see the difference how it looks to me,, drops 20 years off me with the wig,  well i think so,, lol

     

    THERE U GO POSTED ONE, AHAHAHAH ME IN ORANGE TOP

  • Hi, love the wig, it’s similar to my second one, how easy is it to do your hair. I had to put a color shampoo on mine as I was pure white, I have pale skin, I looked like a ghost. You look so different, get the blond dye at the ready, the wee shampoos are doing the trick at the moment for me, can’t do white hair. Just dreading if I have to get more chemo as my cancer has came back but on watch and wait for the moment as they can’t give me treatment as it’s too soon. Don’t know how I will cope losing it again, I will just enjoy my curls just now.

  • Hi - thank you both for this - I love your wig bilgin - my hubby says my wig makes me look younger too - I can’t wait fir my hair to come back but I think I’m thinking it’ll take less time - I have to be more patient !
