When I talk about my cancer with people, my hair loss is inevitably brought up. And what my feelings on my hair loss are. From the second I was diagnosed, I didn't care about losing my hair. I would have given up anything I didn't NEED in order to live. Now that treatment is over, I'm fascinated by how it's growing in, what I look like, and how much fun it's going to be to experiment with short hairstyles. I'll be totally honest... in my more lucid moments, I was a bit terrified of what it was going to look like. I'm not out of the woods yet, but so far I don't think it looks half bad!! People are constantly commenting on how I can pull the short pixie cut off. But let's be honest. What else CAN they say. Anyone would look like a giant jerk telling a woman who so recently finished cancer treatments that she looked terrible with short hair!
So now I'm going to ask for feedback on what to do with it going forward. I've included three photos below. One of me just prior to diagnosis, one the day we shaved my head, and one taken just a week ago. I'm almost ready to dye it too..but it would have to be something fun and a bit funky. Thoughts???

You could be a hair model....each style looks so great on you. Is your hair coming back curly? I do really like it short! I say go short for a while! I have a great hairdresser if you want to dye it :) It is Matt and Rob's friend :)
ReplyDeleteIf it didn't look good short, people wouldn't say anything. It really does look good...you look great! It looked great long too! With short hair, you can show off your beautiful face more and with long hair, people notice the hair more. Have fun experimenting!
ReplyDeleteI love your hair short (and I'm a long hair type of girl). You look sassy and so, so strong.
ReplyDeleteGrow it back. You have a great face, but I think that short hair will remind you of the bad time too often.
