Mine came out in chunks. I had talked to several ladies that had already been down that road and they advised to have it shaved off before it got really weird looking, so that is what I did. I already had my wig so I was ready to go when I got to this point. The first time out with the wig was kind of strange, I was wondering what kind of comments I would get, my wig looked an awful lot like my natural hair and hair style, so some people didn't even realize I was wearing one, that helped an awful lot. You have the right attitude, it will grow back, good luck to you.
