I posted a few weeks ago trying to gather information about post chemo hair and what to expect if I cut it. Well, I finally did it, cut off all my chemo curls and the funky white tips. It is now more of a pixie cut. I like it. It is super short again but now I don't have a mass of curls to deal with. I feel I can relate to this much better.

Next step is to dye it with natural henna which I have and just need to find time to do it.

    you've just convinced me to call my hair dresser to have my white chemo friz removed. My hair will be super short but oh well, it will be nice for the summer! Post a pic when you can.

    Hair cut
    You did it!!! Now you are a pixie instead of funky white tipped chemo hair person. It sounds like a perfect cut for the summer.

    I keep putting of coloring my hair. Does anyone have any tips on how to make this job less of a chore?

    Hugs
