Got up this morning and having a shower, while washing my hair it came out in a few handfuls. Trying to dry my hair with it falling out was losing a bit of battle but was hoping to have got to the weekend before having to shave it off.
On the other hand, my kids are now very excited as I promised them they could shave it off. The design plans are in fall flow of what styles they are going to do lol. Was hoping to wait until Saturday as was going to invite my parents over so we could have a bit of a party and so it wouldn't be such a surprise when they saw me.
So this is the next stage of my battle that I'm dealing with and to be perfectly honest, once the hair is off I will feel better as I won't have long strands of hair everywhere
