Susan L,

I went into the hospital with a completely shaved head... I did so the week before, so that my girls would not associate the hair loss with my Hospitalization... They loved it... continuously stroking my bald head...

Right now I've been shedding hair for two weeks from all around my body, and haven't needed to shave my head (with electric razor) for over a week...

I really liked the Idea of going in strong, it's one less thing to worry about also (Dirty hair / how it looks...)

Many people now a days shave their heads for a fashion statement, it wasn't so in the 80's or 90's, now it's popular alternative, and I will probably stay bald for the rest of my life, easier to manage...

Best Regards, and God Bless...
