I finished my last chemo on the 14th of March and strangely enough my hair had started growing a little before I finished the last round of Taxotere. I started Herceptin on the 28th of March. I only have about a 1/2 inch of hair. It grew in on the back and sides much faster than the top. It is dark and grey. It has been two months since chemo now and I thought I would have more hair. I am hoping to go without the wig soon. The top finally filled in better. It is not thicker and curly like they told me it would be, unless that happens later.
At first my legs and underarms, especially the leg hair grew very slowly. But seems to be faster now, I am hoping that is a sign that the hair on my head will grow faster as well.

Have a great weekend everyone!
