Guest guest Posted December 31, 2004 Report Share Posted December 31, 2004 Dave - The exact same thing happened with my husband - he lost all his brown hair, leaving only the gray. Since he had mostly brown and not that much gray hair, he probably lost at least 80% of his hair. He's been off chemo for 16 months and all the brown hair has grown back. So we watched him turn completely gray, with very thin hair back to a full, thick head of brown/gray speckled hair.

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2004 Report Share Posted December 31, 2004 When my husband started to lose his hair, he opted to shave his head. When it grew back it had less gray and even grew in places where it hadn't before. Looked good on him. Jolene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
