I had to gel it a bit because it tends to be a little frizzy. Something I am not used to because my hair before chemo was straight. Sure is a lot better than no hair.

    You look wonderful
    Isn't hair a good thing to have. : ) It looks great. Mine came in curly at first, something I'd never had before, after a few months it became straighter. Now I have just enough wave to give it some fullness. Enjoy.

    You say your hair is coming in frizzy, well mine was wavy/curly before chemo so I'm hoping mine comes in straight. I will be very happy if that happens. Great picture!

    Wonderful
    Love your picture! Even our "bad" hair days are great--just so happy to have hair! Mine is a little over one year and have my first hair cut appt. next week. I couldn't stand the thought of cutting it before now.
    Enjoy your new look.

    My hair came back curly too
    My hair came back curly too used to be stick straight. I use frizz from sephora and Morrocan Oil. the hairdresser gave me the morrocan oil and it works the best , to keep defining the curl and no frizz. Donna you are gorgeous inside and out.

    My hubby says he likes it better short. I am so used to having it long. It is a lot easier to take care of. Kinda wash and wear. He even told me he did not mind me being bald. Ha Ha. He said my head was a nice shape. Before chemo and I lost all of my hair, he used to tell me I had a pointy head all of the time but he had to change his tune when I was bald cause my head is round on top.

    Donna, you look gorgeous!!
    Yes, it's your hair and that nice smile. I had my last chemo 10/15/09 and my hair was curly at first. I've had a couple of trims and my hair is now getting back to its pre-cancer stage which was straight. I much prefer straight because after all that's what I've spend the last 56 years working with. I say do what makes you happy!!

    I did trim my hair twice, I went to the place that did my wig, it is helping it to grow out evenly. Last night I went to my daughters parents conferences. I had to miss last year.(proud mom alert she is doing awesome top of her class) so many people recognized my husband but not me kept turning around. We were laughing. What a difference a year makes, short curly hair, lots of weight loss and we were laughing. I take every day and thank God for it. The hair is easier but I will like the straight hair, but probably wear it shorter, I kind of like looking a bit more trendy. It did take a while for me to actually like it though. wanted my old normal. anyway Donna never thought you had a pointy head LOL, your husband sounds great.
