My hair started to fall out at the end of February about 2 weeks after my first chemo and has continued to do so for the past 2 weeks.
It is really quite remarkable exactly how much of my hair can fall out before I start looking bald.
Whilst I can see that it is much, much thinner the overall effect is not that of baldness.Nor do I think that I look like a scrofulous plague victim yet. I suspect that it helps that my hair is white as is my scalp.
It doesn't seem to fall out in the clumps and handfuls that it did last time. My pillow in the morning has hair on it, but again not vast quantities. About the only irksome aspect of my hair falling out is that the collars of all my clothes and coats are liberally covered and it is remarkably difficult to remove, other than picking each one off individually.
