️ ️ ️ love Lara 

Lindz, you're amazing an inspiration. If This happens to me I hope to have your courage. Massive hug pip

I'm sorry that you have had to go through this, it's a very personal think to loose our hair, so much attachment to it!

Well done for being so brave and sharing this part of your journey ️

I needed to read this post, thank you!

I began chemotherapy & radiotherapy on the 1st Feb 2023 and really thought I had been lucky enough to avoid hair loss throughout my intensive treatment.

Then one morning when I went to wash my hair in the shower there was clumps of hair all over my hands. I cried having convinced myself that I had avoided this. How daft was I.

All my life my hair was long(to my waist long)till my Dad died in 2020 and after the funeral I decided on a whim to cut it short. I think it was basically one aspect of my life that I could actually control as the devastation of my Dad's diagnosis and death 6weeks later consumed our lives.

Anyway comments like "loosing your hair now wouldnt be that bad when you are used to it being short now" are not helpful. Having no hair is very different to choosing to go to a hairdresser to change your look.

I know I do not want a wig but to brave the shave is something I know I am going to be so upset about but I have asked my husband if we can do it tonight. I am ready, just needed that inspiration from others who understand so thank you.    

Hi Lindz

I had my first treatment on Thursday have been told I will loose my hair so I am now waiting for mine to start falling out I have my hats ready at the moment I feel ok about it but this may all change when it starts happening.  Glad you were brave enough to shave it all off I will try to hang on as long as I can if it doesn't look really bad hope I'll be as brave as you.  Hope your treatment is going ok I have 20 weeks so long way to go yet.  Did you have a picc line I'm a bit worried about some of the side affects so haven't got one yet.

Love Wendy
