With teardrops falling, my husband chopped the remaining hair off, and buzzed my head bald. One brave fall night, it was time to shave my head. The label fit, and I found great comfort in natural symbolism during that time. Shedding my hair during fall was like the trees losing their leaves. The next 10 days were spent losing clumps of hair and leaving a trail everywhere I went of me. The pixie cut was bizarre, however, I am so grateful I did, because it prepared me for the next stage. I knew the risks, and the consequences, and the time it would take to grow back. I never wanted short hair, nor did I ever experiment. I had never had this short hair in my life, mainly because I hated my 5-year-old early 90s short hair with bangs. Two treatments into chemo, I started losing my hair, and I had my neighbor, Brenda, cut my hair short to a pixie. It was my sunshine locks and what made me, or so I thought. I spent 30 years growing out my luscious blond locks and being so happy and proud of my own thick hair. Why hair? Hair is what I loved all my life.
When my oncologist told me I’d have chemo first before my double mastectomy so we could see how the tumors respond to the chemo (I had five tumors, all grade 3, ER-positive), my first question was, “Will I lose my hair?” My oncologist nodded, and it just gutted me. My attitude became, “If I don’t need it and it’s trying to kill me, just take it out.” I don’t disagree, except, I was OK with my breasts being gone. Our basic needs teach us survival and safety are our front most needs, but once those are met, with a cancer diagnosis, what is our next biggest fear to tackle?įor some it’s losing their breasts and their bodies, their finances and other emotional topics.
