I totally understand how you feel. I went through the same thing after my first month of chemo. Watching my hair fall out was really tough and made the whole thing feel more real and scary. It's okay to be sad about it, and it's okay to grieve this change.

please know that it's a phase, and your hair will grow back.
Losing my hair was a shock to me too, even though I knew it was coming. It's one of those things that you're never really prepared for. What helped me was focusing on the fact that it meant the chemo was attacking not just my hair but the cancer cells too. It's a tough journey, but you're tougher.
Oh, I remember that stage. It hit me hard too. Watching my hair fall out felt like I was losing a part of myself. What helped me was finding fun wigs and headwear and reminding myself that this was a temporary step towards getting better. You're brave and strong, and it's okay to lean on others during this time. We're all here for you.

"I went through exactly what you did back in 2004 and I was the owner of two health clubs it was really hard time… I know some people have success with regrowth I ended up with alopecia Universalis it’s where you lose hair from the top of your head to your toes. I was really fearful and angry but ended up with so much peace…getting an adorable wig which I like so much better than my normal hair… and God has given me incredible peace about it!!! I actually like the way I look now better than I did before!!! Hoping you get answers and results and have peace along the way."
