Hair Woes


Through the past 1 year, we have all seen him evolve from a chubby man constantly spotted with different styles of moustaches to a lean man with almost no hair to now a lean man with over stimulated hair follicles...

I always had to keep myself from bursting into laughter each time one of his doctors walks up to him and comment positively on his moustache (they have not seen him with much facial hair before)..... I felt they were too kind with their words as if one should see him after his entire treatment, the poor guy had hair sprouting from almost all pores on his face (a little over-exaggerated but almost close to whole truth).

Later we found out to our relief that when he is weaned off his steroid pills, the hair issue would be tamed. My was I greatly relieved as I was already thinking of how to best wax, pluck, shave.....was even considering permanent hair removal programs!

Finally!!!! My husband is beginning to look normal again as the hair follicles began to behave and grow where they should be!

As for his new crown of glory, the texture is surprising as soft as one of a new born baby. When he excitedly went for his first hair cut with his friend beginning of the month, after almost a year of being bald, it felt like an accomplishment! Although there was little hair loss around the salon chair, it did give a more tidy look and he definitely appreciated the head massage!
