Hi Sheila!
My hair began to grow back while I was on Taxol also. But my eyebrows and eyelashes did an incredible vanishing act!!! Seemed crazy to me, but that's what happened. It did look a look like a chia pet to me too! But it felt so good to feel something on top of my head when I "washed my hair" each day!
You're terrific, Sheila! You'll soon go from Chia Pet to Ravishing Beauty again before you know it! World beware!!!!
Lots of love,
mary anne
