    Thought it was supposed to be better!
    Alright ladies...everybody always talks about it coming in thicker, curlier, etc. Don't think I'm like the idea of gray and thin too much!

    And, I don't want those rotten chin hairs back! The hair on my head should grow so fast!

    I purchased a wig from TLC Direct. For $50 it looks pretty good. I keep thinking it is too light when I atch it against my hair but I was due for a highlight some time ago but put it off. Then I had it cut to about 2 inches so it's pretty dark...except, of course, for those hairline grays.

    Noticed an interesting thing this morning. I had to scratch under my arm. Haven't shaved underarms for about a week...should have been stubbling...smooth as a baby's butt!

    I had my hairdresser trim my wig when it was on my head, to make it look more like my own hair. Also, the back hairline was too long and annoying.

    It truly is amazing how fast those chinny chin chin hairs come back.
