Sorry to hear that you have lost most of your hair. Are you using any head coverings (hats with wig attached, wig, or any other headwear? Just trying to prepare myself. I start chemo with Taxol on 3/21/24. Keeping my fingers crossed that I don't lose all my hair.
Thank you for responding to my post ❤️

Hey~
I’m just glad that I don’t have bald spots and the hair loss is evenly all over.😊
I’m able to get away with putting my hair in a loose low bun.. but I don’t go out much, especially because I wash my hair every 5 days.. or I briefly wear a hood..
My scalp gets itchy from the chemo, especially when it’s too warm.. so no head covering..
I’m also waiting to see how much more I’ll lose, then I’ll decide what kind of covering I’ll use.
I’ve bought and returned a lot.. all I know is I don’t want to wear something tight and heavy.. want to promote hair growth.
I’m not sure when you’ll start shedding but I had clumps come out about 2 weeks after my 1st infusion.. it was disturbing.
But it’s ok - this was easier to deal with than expected. 😊😅 Most frustrating part was I couldn’t prepare because I didn’t know what to expect.
Hope you keep most of your hair 🤞❤️

Hi Cindy
Welcome and sorry you got diagnosed!
I’m on chemo with Taxotere & Cytoxan - started on 1/26/24 (7 weeks) and I have about 10%-15% hair remaining. I’m using Paxman. Some ladies kept 50%-60% so guess I’m one of the unlucky ones ..
