Guest guest Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 Carol, I think it all depends on the person. I had the 5 o'clock shadow in October, and now I have a full head of short hair, actually I'm getting my first hair trim Saturday, to even out the areas. I am new to this group, and I have sent two Intro's and neither has shown up yet. SOO I thought I would respond to a post and see if it works. Hi Ladies! This question is for all you veterans out there. My last chemo is a week from tomorrow (WHOOOPPPIE!!!!) and most of the hats I have were "wintry". I was wondering about how long it will be before I will start seeing a "five o'clock shadow" on my head. I need to know whether to buy some warmer weather hats.

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 Hi Carol, My last chemo was Jan. 25 and I'm still wearing hats. My hair is 1/8 - 1/4 " long. It wasn't very thick to begin with, and it doesn't look like it's growing in any thicker (though my eyelashes & eyebrows seem thicker). Now I'm hoping by mid-summer to loose the hat/wig. btw, my eyelashes and eyebrows started falling out 5-7 weeks post-chemo, so don't be surprised if yours do. - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
