Thinking of coloring my hair. I’m thinking to use Herbatint. Does anyone have experience with this. Or should I just live with the grey hair now? Any advice would be appreciated.

Each person grows their hair back differently. I could feel my hair growing back. Peach fuzz to start off with then the chemo curls started after it started to grow in more. I never wore a wig when I lost my hair just a baseball cap. Washed my head just like normal. As for coloring your hair you do what makes comfortable. I personally do not color my hair at all. Not sure of what chemicals are in them even the ones that are suppose to be natural coloring. A while back they had a thing on the tv about when you use hair straightners the chemicals in it caused cancer. Of course it was a thing on if you get cancer from doing that contact a lawyer to join the class action lawsuit.

Sony, I hear you! As soon as my hair was 1/2 inch long, I bleached it platinum. It didn’t damage anything. Didn’t burn my scalp. I love it and have bleached it again recently. I figured what have I got to lose? I can always shave it off if it gets ruined. Go for it! Dye it a pretty color and love your look.
Be happy, take chances. LOL 😂😆😀

I had my haircut short since I’ve been losing more and more hair. But my two haircuts ago I had the back inside shaved and I also had him put in my signature purple. My two younger grandsons call me purple grandma. I’ve had that from them for sometime. I love it when they call me purple grandma. Do what you feel is right for you and don’t let anybody tell you any different. It’s your choice.
