How do you style this fluff on the top

hi yes I remember them new hair days I found hair gels and also oil for hair it will help with frizz and smooth hair mine came back a little wavy and before chemo mine was to the middle of my back ! I use to cry I hated the way my hair looked at the growing back stage frizzy , dry.  I went to a hair stylist she showed me the tricks for my hair again gels and the oil  not sure if it is still around but garnier fructis moroccan  sleek I used ! Any sleek oil for hair should be good it doesn't take much to use ! I also used a hair paste to I tried to not blow dry to much it made it worse ! It will get better hang in there I hope this helps ! Mine is back long and straight and Fine I battle oily hair now I can't use the hair oil anymore !

First off, let me say that your allowed to vent. I felt all the same emotions that you are feeling. I cried over my hair and losing my breasts. Keeping a positive mind as much as possible is necessary, though sometimes it's not that easy and you have to vent to get it out..or cry. That means your human.

For my hair, I used coconut oil. I used it as a rinse out conditioner when I showered and used it as a leave it conditioner at night. It only takes a little bit. When I fixed my hair to go out, I used Biomega Behave Smoothing Elixir (because coconut oil can make your hair look greesy). I also used a travel (mini) flat iron to straighten my short curly mess on the days I went out. I only washed my hair every few days, so I wouldn't have to use the iron/heat too much since my hair was coarse. I done this starting when my hair was only about an inch long. Crazy I know, but it enabled me to spike my hair and I felt I looked a bit better. Whatever makes you feel better, ya know?

You will make it through this beast. Prayers for a better day tomorrow!

I found a good barber and have been keeping mine very short.  Tapered on the sides and a little longer on top.  Once I'd  been bald for eight months, I kind of liked the freedom.

I'm going through the same thing! My hair is black and white, curly and not even. I use curly gel for now. When I don't it's a curly dry mess.  It should get better.

Don't count negative chickens before they hatch Mnlmeyer. I've been told that I look better than I did pre-cancer.  The fear is natural and expected, but at least we can travel this bumpy road with you. I didn't even find this site until I had finished treatment. Feel free to ask any question and rant any rant.

I finished active treatment in July, and it took about 3 months until I felt that my hair was somewhat presentable.  Everyone kept telling me how they could not wait to see my curly hair because everyone they knew who went through treatment had it.  Well,  I am still waiting for a curl. . .  hair is poker straight (just as before) and coloring is black and white (just as before).  At first I felt my hair was coming in thick, but as soon as Armidex/ then switched to Femara were introduced it began to thin.  I have added Biotin supplement along with the other wonderful drugs post treatment.  Onco said it seems to help some patients struggling with hair issues.  If nothing else, at least I feel I am doing something active. (Taxotere/Cytoxin effects)

      Whatever is there, rejoice!  It may also take some time. . . I remember that the back and sides seemed to get started first, and I feared the top was lost for good.  Now I have hair all around. . . just not growing too fast and seems thinner.
