Well... Im getting used to my short hair..although I keep trying to push it behind my ears...habit! I was actually ok walking around the mall on Saturday. A couple of people did a double take but otherwise it was fine. Its still coming out so maybe by next weekend it will be totally gone. And thats ok too. Ive come to the conclusion I dont mind being bare headed. It was just another hurdle to get over. I will still have to wear a hat when Im outside tho. The California sun is so strong I cant risk a sunburnt head.I will look like a lolly pop
So...hat hunting was fun....but I have come to the conclusion that I really dont have a "hat face". Sports caps and beanies look really bad. What a shame cos I saw quite a few blingy ones. I suppose I could have gone down the Harry Potter route... or maybe the Minion... but I dont think hubby would ever walk with me again.
So I came away with a couple of different styles... none of which really suit me...
They are all quite plain cos I plan to jazz them up myself with ribbons, lace, flowers...and maybe some bling to match whatever Im wearing. It will be fun to ring the changes.
So six days in to the hair loss process...Im totally alright with it. In the grand scheme of things.. its a very small hiccup
Now to look forward to seeing Dr Phan this afternoon...and tomorrows chemo...
Oh Joy!!
Love and Hugs

Oh, Phoebe! You are so lovely, with your bright smile and shining eyes!
ReplyDeleteI just wandered in from Patsy and Bennie's place, and am so glad to know you.
I can see your indomitable, strong spirit shining through, and it comes through in your wit and words, as well. Good thoughts and prayers from the Heartland!
your new follower, rachel
Hooray for your never ending good attitude. I think it's one of the most important things in fighting this battle. I think you look quite cute, but I know that I would feel the same way as I just don't think I have a hat face... Your smile is the best!
ReplyDeleteYour hair may be gone but your sweet smile remains.
ReplyDeleteYou have such a positive attitude! And I think you look fabulous in your hat... your smile makes your hat look good!
