Hi Katie and Louise, you’ve recieved a lot of good feedback and advise, just thought I’d add that it’s normal to worry about loosing your hair. I went out and bought a $500 wig thinking I would need it, but never wore it. I found a lot of fun chemo head bandannas in different styles and colors and really preferred my look with those than the wig.
I had longer hair, so when it started to lose it, I to a short cut at first and then a buzz cut to help the transition, it did help and you do get use to it. I tried to stay as positive as I could through the process, I think it helps; or maybe I was an ostrich with my head in the sand and just tried not to think about it. Wishing you all the best through the journey, we are here for you
