Thats me, text book, to the day exactly when the nurse said my hair would start to fall out it has started. Have to say blubbed in the car on the way to picking my daughter up from her sleepover and then thought how silly its just hair it will grow back and there are far more important things for me to think about than losing my hair. I surprised myself by feeling this way am usually, and have been strong so far on this journey! Sitting here on this grey afternoon I can still see rays of sunshine and I know everything will be ok. Just had to have a waffle on it always makes you feel better when you put things down in print. This is why this site is so wonderful.

Oh my goodness, I cried when my hair fell out, it was everywhere in my hospital room, so someone came in and cut it really close to my head. the girl doing it cried too!It was awful cos my throat was really sore and swollen from chemo also, so it really hurt to cry!

I think, especially for women, hair means alot. It's a sign of health and nothing is as great as doing your hair up all nice and buying brilliant products. I still have days where i really miss my hair and just want to throw up in a messy bun, but I just remind myself that it will come back. And it'll come back lovely and healthy because it'll be free from any dying or heat products! also, it might be curly...

Also, crying about the wee things means the big things aren't on your mind as much!

Thanks Erianno, you are right and today I bit the bullet and had my head shaved. The poor guy in the barbers didn't know what to think, but I was fed up finding hair in my coffee and in my food and I'm going to lose it all anyway within the next week so this is just the next stage.
