So our wedding is next October, I'm due to start my chemotherapy in February meaning if I have any hair at all by October, it won't be that much.... I know it's a year away but I'm already stressing on what to do. Do I try to wear a wig? Attempt to roll with the no/short hair? I've had long hair all...

So our wedding is next October, I'm due to start my chemotherapy in February meaning if I have any hair at all by October, it won't be that much.... I know it's a year away but I'm already stressing on what to do. Do I try to wear a wig? Attempt to roll with the no/short hair?

I've had long hair all my life and am already dreading losing it, now thinking about wedding pictures for the rest of our lives I'm panicking thinking about not having hair. But I also don't want to have a wig that could possibly look completely unnatural in photos

UGH

    Uu necessarily won't lose uur hair. If it does uu can rock uur bald head and rock the he'll

    Outta it. If uu don't feel comfortable uu can always get a wig have a stylist style it for uu. Tho it may be a lil pricey

    Anne Hathaway, the actress, had very short hair on her wedding day, because her hair was shorn for her part in les Mis. She has a tulle headpiece that covered her whole head and was very pretty. You can probably find a photo. Online Just another option. Prayers for healing.

    Try using Nixon. You can get it at ulta. You can always try hair extensions. You won't even be able to tell you have them in!

    First, sending you BIG HUGE ENORMOUS hugs.

    Second, you're going to be beautiful.

    Third, I'd wait to see how you feel as things get closer. After my friend went through chemo, she was surprised how beautiful she felt with super short hair. She had some really beautiful high-quality wigs, but often preferred to just rock the short hair because it was more comfortable, and she felt sort of empowered.

    So take care of yourself, and know that you got this!

    My mom lost her hair and she rocked an absolutely fabulous wig. I wouldn't try extensions with your new hair growth or attempt to dye or heat style it because it's so delicate. I would go for a wig that can be styled however you want. You're going to be gorgeous and I'm so excited for you! My mom definitely shaved her head before her hair started falling out because that was very difficult for her. That way, you could get used to wearing something.
