Catherine's New Hair Cut

Three weeks into delayed intensification, Catherine's hair loss started to accelerate. Although she has lost hair throughout the process, her hair has been pretty resilient to all the medication (unlike my receding hairline). This past Sunday, Theresa and I noticed loose strands of hair throughout the house. As the week progressed, it became clear that the most recent dose of Doxorubicin would likely result in all of her hair falling out in short period of time.

Never to sit back and relax, Theresa decided we should "attack" the hair loss head on by giving Catherine a hair cut. Unfortunately for Catherine, we do not own a Flowbee hair removal system so Theresa used a scissor to take several inches off of Catherine's hair while Frankie Valley sang Beauty School Dropout in the background.

Let's just say the initial results were less than stellar. We decided to bring Catherine to the hair salon to fix the mess Theresa created. Catherine absolutely loves her new hair doo! I included some before and after picks in the next post.
