Hairy fuzz

Hi Ladies, since they stopped the taxol my hair has started to grow back but it looks a little fuzzy with hair in between. Do you shave off the fuzz or leave it. Thanks ladies,

Hi Damelza, yes your hair grows back curly so plenty of conditioner every time you wash it and perhaps a deep conditioning mask which you can get in any supermarket or shop. So you could have a good curly hairstyle by the time Christmas arrives.

Hi Damelza,

Had a similar issue with the fuzzy bits. I trimmed it to keep the hair a similar length but didn't go to hairdresser as I was to so happy to had my hair back. A friend said its recommended to have it cut but I couldn't bring myself to do it. Everyday turned into hair watch day but it was exciting ☺️ Esther xx

Hi Damelza I am in the same boat, I have grey fuzz and then a dark shadow of hair underneath.

I was thinking of getting it trimmed so it all comes in the same length.

Hi Damelza ,I have about three quarter of an inch of hair at the moment it started growing fuzzy at the beginning but as it grew the fuzz disappeared. I am now fifty shades of grey but just glad to have a bit of covering once again as I have been bald longer than I have had hair over the last four years,with me it is like hair today gone tomorrow😂😁.

Hi Demelza,

I must admit my son kept my head shaved until it was all growing at the same rate and I used to condition my scalp and stubble regularly.

I am lucky it has grown back in good condition,better than before and looks blonde? Weird,but I will take any bonus I can get,

The Taxol was stopped for me after session 4 but I had two more of Carbo only which meant that my hair did start to come back as a six o'clock shadow ! I noticed that there were soft white hairs which Were slightly longer than the rest of my hair when it began to grow back 'properly' so I waited for it to get to nearly half an inch long then clippered it to get it to the same length. I found that the proper new growth was a darker colour and it took the white tips off and made it much neater.

I still have a lot of silver in my hair but I love it,- I had dark hair with just a few grey strands in it when it was clippered off in April!!!
