While at Walmart you might consider buying Clairol Nice'n Easy Root Touch-Up. It really is easy to cover up the gray that was coming in. Made my hair look much longer much faster as the gray was on the front and sides of my forehead.
I finished weekly Taxotere/Herceptin the middle of November of 2005. Now, 9 months later, finished my last Herceptin two weeks ago, I have thicker, curly hair that is just a little over two inches long. I have always had slow growing hair and would settle for the slow growth if I could keep what appears to be MORE hair! Since all of my hair didn't fall out--the top and front was the worst, of course, some of my hair is a little longer but kept it trimmed so it didn't out of place. I hated wigs. If I ever lose my hair again I will have to find better ones. The ones I had were just too uncomforatable.

Thanks, Astrid, for the false eyelash tip. I will try them as mine are thin. Most have grown back, just missing a couple on the lash and brows.
