9. Cannot speak personally ...

my husband has lost his hair four times in the last five years when they killed his immune system in order to achieve remission and then again before transplant.

But then he is a guy and not as concerned

I can say that we have met many women over the years who lost all their hair, mostly transplant patients, and they wore scarves, wigs or just went natural when they were bald. They were all beautiful whatever their choice.

If it were me, I think I might go for a very short cut, but I can say that not having to make the decision.

It grows back quicker than you think and when an outsider begins to speak with you, the hair fades into the background and the personality shines.

If ever need be, I can hopefully reflect on my own words.
