One Hell of a Perm: My Post Cancer Hairdo



I wrote about my new luxuriously wavy and soft hair over at Good Housekeeping today:

One Hell of a Perm: My Post Cancer Hairdo.

BTW: My oncologist said yesterday it's probably a good idea NOT to dye your hair. Anything to lower the chemical load. So, brown is beautful, baby.

I looked in the mirror this morning, found some new growth and of all things it has a red tint to it. lol I'm naturally dark blonde and have colored my hair strawberry blonde before many times. My Dad and daughter bet when I started chemo that it would come back red or strawberry blonde. They could be right! lol

That's great! I got my PET and CT scan results today...........no cancer! I still have to do 2 more chemos just to 'mop up' as my PA put it. lol Then onto radiation. I can't wait to be done.

Have a great weekend,
Cassie
