I posted this on the "big bunz" thread and realized this is an accomplshment deserving its own post. I was diagnosed with cancer two years ago, went through chemo and lost my waist length hair. Everyone here was SO supportive with posts and encouraging messages. Thank you to all of you!

So 14 months ago y hair started growing out from bald, here it is, past shoulder and shiny and healthy. No mullet, either? My hair has not and will not be touched with scissors, this is virgin - well, with some help from my friend henna. I herbal wash (hennera for hair) and condition (catnip tea). In a few years I hope to be back to waist. I am on the shoulder to APL thread, having graduated from the super shorties. Happy growing! By the way, there IS a sock in there, the ends barely tuck under. :cheese::cheese::cheese::cheese::cheese:

A huge thank you to everyone for all the nice comments. Though I must admit I never actually saw a cervix so I did not see the resemblence... Too funny!

A tiny sock bun, for now but give me a few years! I will be past waist and heading for classic!
