Hi everyone, I have just cancelled a longed for appointment to have my hair dyed . I had a patch test for L’Oréal ammonia free dye but over the weekend I experienced quite a lot of shedding and my hair feels much less full today . Pretty much all over - I thankfully have super thick hair so I still have a full covering . My head has been aching off and on for a few weeks and I think this was pre shedding as it feels much better today apart from one little area. Has anyone gone ahead and dyed their hair whilst taking abemaciclib and Letrozole? I would love to hear your stories - I am fully white / silver and keen to be brown again
Hello Trev123a17072
Sorry, I can't answer your question but by answering I am making sure your post has risen to the top of 1st page again. If no other lady has tried dying whilst on abemaciclib and Letrozole, you could try asking your BCN to see what she suggests?
Hope you get a positive and get back to your chosen colour.
Kindest wishes, Lesley
