Almost Ready for a Cut

1/31/2012
10 months after last chemo session

I felt as tired as I look in this picture. I started full-time work January 9th and I am just beat when I come home. Still, I wanted to keep the hair pictures up. I got my hair colored again January 4th and asked her to make it less red. I still think it's a little red but I can't seem to get that across to her. I wanted to show a picture of the back, too...

...because it's really thin and fine. When I was about to lose my hair, everyone told me it would grow back thicker, coarser and more curly, although a little darker. The only thing I got was darker. It's much thinner and more fine, although I am taking medication that lists as a side effect thinning hair. It's been four weeks since my color job and you can definitely see the roots. I have two more weeks to go until my appointment and I think I'll be able to get a cut this time. Since my hair has grown in so unevenly it's a little hard to curl but it's WAY better than it was even six months ago. (Yes, I started using a curling iron on it the week I went back to work.) As you can see, I have enough hair now to have a bad hair day!
