A Faithful Reader enquires...

... what I plan to do when my hair is gone?

I am taking a variety of approaches, including bandanas and crochetted caps, and a rather magnificent pale mauve cowl I am knitting for myself.

But no wig, because anything less than the hair I had (I've already had it down to an inch, and it's already back to two) would depress me more than being bald will. Besides, would YOU wear what this here prescription I have in my hand calls a "scalp prosthesis"?

I should start seeing the new hair in December, anyway. So, that's that.

Oh, and no pink, for the love of God.

  1. If you could see Sandia Mountain at sunset, you might rethink the virtues of pink. Of course--admiring a mountain colored like a watercolored rose is different from wearing a dress the color of (gag) bubblegum.

  2. Pink is perfectly fine in Nature, ans sometimes even sublime. The pink that edges little clouds as sunset comes in an otherwise clear blue sky is a particular favorite.

    But not on me.

  3. Your new hair will be nice and soft because it's never been cut, like baby hair! Try to think of that as a novelty to look forward to.
