As of today I have officially shaved my head! The last week has been crazy emotional having to deal with my hair loss, when I was initially diagnosed with Lymphoma hair loss was the least of my worries and it didn’t really even bother me until it became a reality and started falling out.

I think cancer is a lot harder to deal with when you genuinely look as ill as you feel.

The decision to shave my head has been the most liberating and empowering thing I have done thus far because it meant that my hair loss happened on my terms and it also stopped me feeling gross every time I ran my fingers through my hair.

Last night it fell out in huge clumps and it was the worst feeling ever, I felt completely ugly. I cried hysterically for the first time since my tumour was discovered.

But today is a new day and I couldn’t have gathered the strength to shave my head without all the love and support I’ve received. Thank you to absolutely everyone who sent in words of love and support, my heart is SO full.

I love you all so much!! 💓💓💓

I wouldn’t say I was overly vain about my hair but I am so happy with the progress it has made over the past 19 months. Mainly because it is a sign that I am 19 months past finishing my treatment and I’m still here bitches! Procrastinated doing work this morning by properly straightening it for the first time since it all fell out in May ‘15 and it’s doing pretty damn good! My hair: the symbol that blob is still a stupid dead bastard in my back… I win!

A Word About Hair

Hair means many things to each of us personally, but I never fully appreciated the uses and nuances of my body hair until I lost most of it.  I also didn’t realize the body had such a twisted sense of humor about its growth and regrowth, but that was just naivete on my part. 

First of all I think it goes without saying that I would have preferred to never have lost the hair on my head, since we were doing just fine and knew how to work together.  Being bald makes me look like a stranger to myself, and though it’s a face I’m now accustomed to seeing in the mirror every day, it’s just not me.  Wigs and hats will tide me over, but naturally having some hair growing on my head will be comforting as we march toward winter.

We all know we have follicles in interesting places.  What I have found curious throughout this journey through chemo, radiation and eventually bone marrow engrafting is that Mother Nature is anything but methodical, logical or even kind about when She giveth or taketh away.

So this is my experience, in all its (increasingly less) hairy glory!

The story of the shaving of my head is already documented here: I don’t need to relive that right now, but if you want to, have yourself a time.

Facial hair - peach fuzz comes and goes seemingly at its own will.

Pubic Hair:  I for one will be eagerly awaiting its return because just everything overwhelms already sensitive skin covering at least SOME important spots. Not to mention that the side effects of KGFs (meds from hell) having been making it very sad as down there as well. Seriously why does this KGF crap hate skin so much? One amusing stage of hair loss last summer saw the eventually lack of anything but a ring around around the whole area, which Tom promptly dubbed “The Reverse Brazilian”.

Leg Hair: This made my sister howl with laughter.  It proves just how mean she is.  I have had to shave my legs periodically ever since I shaved my head. Chemo has slowed down the regrowth, but my leg hair will not waver!! The follicles on my hair had to go first, yet my legs feel stubbly every few weeks, seemingly at random. Since my immune system is regrowing now, I can’t shave as normal but will have to use the *gasp* electric razor that boys use.

Arm Hair:  Also NOT VERY FUNNY.  The one place you want to be perfectly hairless due to constant use of tape and bandages has only NOW, NEAR THE VERY END OF IT maybe lost a LITTLE hair.

Under Arm Hair:  Very little trouble.  Has been playing nice in the sandbox. Thank goodness. Can’t remember the last time I had to deal with it.  Thanks for being the only easy thing going on in my body, you hairless pit.

Nose Hair:  Trust me.  It’s more comfortable to have it.  Your nostrils being stuck together just feels weird.

Brows and Lashes:  They hung on for so very, very long, and I never fully appreciated them, I have nothing left on the left eye and one lash and one or two brow hairs on the right.  I hope they grow back first.  My hair can wait.  I want my face to look normal and for my eyes to be protected and all of that other good stuff.  

Of course you just know I’ll have to shave my legs well before more than two lashes get going, but a girl can dream.
