The Hairstylist With No Hair

Well, I am officially bald. The amount of hair shedding from my head was getting ridiculous. When hair on your pillow wakes you up at night by blowing on your face, it's time for it to go. I waited till Tuesday to talk to my doctor to see if by chance it would just magically stop falling out. He said "no." So Tuesday night Lisa (who cut my pixie) came over and did the honors.

 This is the perfect picture to capture how was really feeling. I will probably regret posting this picture later because I look pretty pitiful.

I don't know why I am holding my stomach like that. In this picture it looks like I still have a lot of hair left but once I got in the shower to rinse off the hair just kept shedding. 

Having no hair has definitely made this whole cancer thing more real. Before I could go about my business and no one would really notice that there was something wrong with me other than the scar on my chest. Now it is obvious and I am not one to want attention drawn to myself. It will just take some time getting used to. The annoying thing is that it will probably be close to a year before I have the grown out pixie that I just cut off.

So now I will be done complaining and start gathering up cute scarfs and accessories to make the best of it.

Apparently Anne Hathaway has just shaved her head for a new role.

And here are some other perfectly good ladies who shaved their heads. They better have been payed a lot of money for their roles to shave off a perfectly good head of hair.
