10. feb16 - the first snip

Updated: May 15, 2020

When I found out I had Hodgkin’s, my first question was “will I lose my hair?” Short answer. Yes.

The thing about hair is that it grows back. Everyone keeps asking if I want a wig for when it’s gone. I don’t think I do though. Losing my hair is


not the biggest thing I am dealing with here. Honestly, it seems kind of silly to be sad about. Don’t get me wrong, I love my curly hair and will definitely miss it. But you gotta choose your battles and having hair on my head doesn’t change who I am.


My doctor told me to get a short haircut as a transition. Today I chopped 6 inches! Enough?
