It looks very natural. Are you comfortable with the length? My hair was naturally about that long, but I’m not sure whether I will find something closer to my shoulders easier if the synthetic hair is stiffer.
You look really amazing, hope you had a good time.

I find I go off water after my carboplatin week. My chemo nurse recommended coconut water which is supposed to be great for rehydration
Wow you look great 
I am about to begin my journey as find out Wednesday my treatment plan.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Oh bless you-we just want the process to go smoothly-sorry it was a stressful one. I’m constantly willing my picc line to stay clear as can’t contemplate this otherwise.
You look great!!! Could I ask where your wig is from please? It’s amazing, looks so natural x

Thank you! Here is my hair previously…you can see this would be very hard to recreate. This is how I adapted the wig to make me feel more comfortable. It was the fringe I didn’t like. In hindsight, I would not have gone for this, but I have found a compromise for the short’-term.

Hi @bird25. You’re always welcome in this and any other group 
Low mood has been a regular feature for me on EC and Docetaxel, a couple of days after infusion when the steroids wear off. I’m sure many will report similar experiences. At the time it can feel all consuming and really crippling. The way I have learnt to overcome it is to remind myself that it is just a pharmaceutical response, not a reflection of me. It is temporary and usually after a day or so, it rectifies itself. I’ve also had the occasional day where I have just ‘got out of the wrong side of bed’ and am Mrs Angry for no apparent reason.
I now announce that I am being a bit tearful/snappy/low, ask for moral support or just ask for understanding if I withdraw for a few hours or a day. I’ve not figured out how to stop the feelings from happening, but just knowing it is a temporary state has helped me cope.
For me it has tended to be every cycle, but that is not to say it will be the same for you. We all respond differently. The important thing is to communicate, both with yourself and your loved ones, and not to beat yourself up about it. Self-kindness is key. xXX

@bird25, I was alright after the first round but I had low points after round 2. I’m on Day 3 post round 3 today and I’ll be honest, I feel awful. Not low mood, just severe nausea. But I know it’ll pass.
@Jaygo, your pink hair was great. I do think you’re rocking the blonde with the bandana on as well.

@sheraldo thanks. I wore the blonde twice this weekend, but still it wasn’t landing for me. I have invested in this today and the beauty is that this one is real hair, so can be styled. Image generated by Chat GPT.
Now to sell blonde wig. All tips on how to do this gratefully received!.
