Hi @catperk22. At the time I started chemo I had longer hair that was always clipped up in a bun. Knowing I’d be losing it, I preemptively had it buzzed off in the hospital by the wig-shop beautician. Bless her heart, she came up to my room to do the deed. (I would be inpatient for 5 weeks). My daughter (35) was there with me at the time and we had quite a little party! 3 of my chemo nurses popped in too.
One of the girls said I ‘looked Bad A**, like the chick from Deadpool! 😅 So they printed out a photo of her and posted on the wall in my room as a reminder!

Quite honestly, I always feared losing my hair as I got older. But pffft, once it happened and I didn’t have a choice, it was so liberating! My husband took it harder than I did! I enjoyed the no-fuss routine in the morning of washing my head with a washcloth and applying a little argan oil.

There are so many cute hats on the market and also, heck, there were days I went with the cue ball look! I also lost my eyelashes for a while so then there’s the pig-eye look. 🫣. But that’s just for a little while and all the hair grows back!
Sometimes the texture or color may change but I also wear that as a badge of honor for coming out the victor!

So best wishes with your treatments, @catperk22, keep being a trend setter, and may you come out the victor with a lovely new head of lustrous locks! ☺️
