My hair started growing back just after my last treatment.  Just days after my husband said I had peach fuzz on my head.  I did wear a boyish style cut for a while cause I kept using the clippers on it.  Bearing through a grow out period is HARD.  A year later my hair was almost back to normal, then I moved to New Orleans and got so hot I cut it short again.  Now the grow out is worse than before, as it seems soooooo much slower. I was one that had hope for straight hair cause I have very thick, curly texture hair - but no such luck - not even letting it grow in and shaving it again.  Never did change it, and though I was a blonde I have noticed my hair is a diff color and includes more grays, which does not make me happy at 34! I hope when I go through chemo later this year that my hair comes back straight.  I'm in radiation now and I've heard it can mess up your hair as well. I suggest Nioxin hair vitamins that you buy from a salon, they will help it grow and keep it healthy. Good luck making it through your grow out period! Angi
