You'll get some short regrowth pretty quickly, but it takes about six months (or more, if you had very long hair) for it to get totally back to normal. But, if I recall correctly, I had enough hair after about six-eight weeks so that I could stop wearing scarves and hats.

I feel like I'll have to do Chemo forever.
Hairless I am, because hair began falling in my food.
Hair in carrots was discusting.

So I had a relative shave it all off.
Genetically I was a very hairy lady with thick but unrully hair that always grew very quickly.
Hopefully I look foreward to being a hairly lady agian someday.

I've discovered BALD at night is cold at night.
I sleep in a wonderful warm hair replaceing hat!
