Hi amrine,

You've got a ways to go until you get hair growing. Adriamyacin is quick to take the hair away. I finished my chemo last July, did rads for Aug & Sept and had about 3/4 inch of hair for sons wedding in Oct. 2008. Interesting look to be sure!

I never wore a wig or a hat when I lost my hair. It was so much cooler (live in Florida) to go through the summer months bald to be honest. And I was told I had a nice head for bald :)

Best wishes as you go through your chemo. Remember, drink LOTS and LOTS of water!
