Hair growth

Hi, I finished chemo in late June and now have a very short head of hair that is still very soft and maybe just a bit more than a cm all over. It seems to be coming back more quickly in the last few weeks. 

Hello Baba

Yes, I have experienced the same. My last chemo was March and like you still having the herceptin & pettuzumab injections. My hair has been slow to grow. I just had my first hairdresser visit a couple of weeks ago to tidy up the 'uncle fester' bits above my ears. I would say the longest bits at the back are about an inch and a half now. The front on top has been slowest. However, any hair is better than none and I welcome it. 

Someone on here previously suggested that growth is slower when still on the meds we are getting and I think that is correct. I used to have very quick growing hair, but not now. I has come back thick and after the baby fluff it is a different coarse texture with curls. Colour was weird until hairdresser  rectified this: black and white instead of dark blonde. Still glad to have it.

I think we just have to be patient, there is nothing else for it.

All the best
