Re: Hair color

I checked with my nurse about colouring my hair just after having my last chemo. She said it was ok. Hair had started to grow back but I waited till it was about an inch long before I went to Hairdresser and had it coloured. Used a permanent colour and no problems. I was still getting Herceptin and Perjeta.
Unfortunately I am now on Xeloda and was concerned about colouring my hair. So decided to use Naturtint Hair colour ( no bleach, parabens etc.) from health food shop this time. I was surprised at how good it is.
i totally agree with you about wanting to feel like your old self. Between hair colour before dyeing and short hair I wondered who I was looking at!!
