For a good portion of my life my hair spent it’s time pulled back into a ponytail. Every now-and-then I’d get a great cute shortish cut. Eventually due to lack of caring it would grow long enough to be pulled back into an up-do.
As a young girl the color was blond. By middle school the color had darkened slightly, which could have been the oil caused by puberty. In high school and early college years I fell victim to the home hair coloring products. Upon college graduation my hair was universally a nice fine straight light brown. It stayed that way until mid-way through my first line of cancer treatment.
Cisplatin robbed me of my hair, among other things. Whole brain radiation caused all sorts of havoc on/in my head. From this point on what grows out of my scalp is a crapshoot. Fine to course; white to dark brown; straight to curls – you name it, I’ve likely had it with the exception of long hair.
It’s about time that I get my hair cut again. The poof has gotten pooffier. I’m considering to let it grow out a little. What will it look like? Will it be easier to cover the thinning patches if it grows longer? Will I ever sport the pulled back pony again?
I feel like a walking, talking, mostly hair growing science experiment.
you’ll be beautiful no matter how it turns out!
Always so kind G!
But no grey hair? Whatever comes in, will look good on you!
Mark and G are right. I’ve been told the same :o) I get mine “cut” every 3-4 weeks (just to tame the fluff – how can so little hair be so dang fluffy?) and I’m still rocking the comb-over. But dammit, it’s a hip comb-over, one I think I’ll have forever.
