    I would rather it all come off at once, then watching just clumps come out at a time. I feel it would drag out the process and be emotional every time to see a clump of hair come out. I would make a halo and use it not only while you are bald, but as you are growing your hair out it would be fun to wear at times. It would be cute to get a picture of your kids wearing it and having that reminder of how much of a warrior you were and how strong you were during this time in your life.

    I think you should cut in and go for the halo, because watching your hair fall out in chunks could be even more emotional than cutting it. You're going to be beautiful bald, I can already picture you. I love your channel. I've only been watching for a little over a week. You're so strong. Praying for you and your family. God bless you sweetheart.

    That is a hard decision and can be an emotional thing to go through! I say embrace it and cut it. That’s one thing my SIL did when she started losing her hair when fist diagnosed with cancer. Your a rock star Tia and such an inspiration to so many. Continued thoughts n prayers for you and your family. Your so loved ❤️💪🏻❤️

    I liked the idea someone gave earlier about cutting it and saving it as a braid. That way you would have a cute momento...instead of a halo that you may or may not wear.

    No wig! Shave it now. You’d be beautiful bald! Rock it. You won’t have to deal with it being hot or itchy. Sending good vibes your way! 💗

  • @jessicamandile
    @jessicamandile 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I saw cut it to have the option to wear it if you want too. Love you Tia! You got this!

  • @nicolewalters3570

    You’re hair is beautiful. I vote for a halo with your own hair. Good luck girl ❤️ You’ve got this!

    I promise it's so much less traumatic to shave it now then to watch it fall out every day and to start to see bald spots. My daughters 14 year old best friend is fighting the same cancer right now and she held off and every day when she would brush it she would cry and it got to the point the whole top of her head was bald and you could see her scalp because she didn't want to shave it but we finally talked her into it and she said herself shaving it was way less traumatic then seeing all the hair come out every day. You look gorgeous with short hair!!! I remember cutting your mohawk when I was in hair school and it was my favorite when it was short. You got this!

  • @sonjahansen4216

    I think the halo wig would be a fun option to have along with the pink wig, etc.

  • @firedaughteremily588
    @firedaughteremily588 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    i think you should make a halo wig out of it just to keep and have. you can always wear it or hang on to it as a memoir of the time you beat cancer! you can wear wigs (synthetic or your own) if you would like, you can wear caps or even nothing at all, either way you’re going to look absolutely beautiful! those are my thoughts at least.. i love you T, you got this 🤟🏽❤️❤️

  • @Kyzmom42907
    @Kyzmom42907 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I think I personally would want my own hair so I’d do the halo go for it girl!! You got this!! Your hair is so beautiful too 💗

    @taisleecox1014 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Personally I would cut it as soon as possible so it will be more comfortable, however, I don't know what it is like to loose hair, so it is up to you. Your are amazing tia!! You got this!! Thank you for saying a prayer, I could feel the spirit so strong! I will be praying for you!! 💜🙏🏼

  • @brennaadams9269
    @brennaadams9269 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I would cut it now & make a halo!! It would definitely be something cool to have even if you don’t end up liking it that much!! Praying for you, you are doing amazing!! 😘😘 I have enjoyed following you for just a short time before your cancer diagnosis & I am in awe of your positivity & strength that has carried over to your journey!! We’ve got this 🤟🏻

    @trissylu 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I would vote cut it now and have it cause watching it fall out is so sad.. rock it Tia you honestly look good with any hair style try something super short and fun!!!! Love you!

  • @whitneyleeper4052
    @whitneyleeper4052 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    You are going to rock it either way! I think you’ll look fierce bald and the summer is coming where it’s hot. You can rock the beanies in the hospital and inside if you’re cold. I could totally see some cool wraps on you. But, do whatever makes you feel fierce, queen bee !!

  • @karleematthews2235

    Both mama! If anyone can rock the bald look it's youuu! ❤️ My friend wears wigs and has a bright blue and a bright pink one and she looks AMAZINGGGG in them! Have some fun with it! Yeah it'd be cool to have your own hair, but if the price is a problem and ya don't really care otherwise, then don't! It's all up to you girl ❤️

  • @meglingard9041
    @meglingard9041 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I cut my hair super short right before it started falling out and donated it. But I love the idea of being able to have your own hair as a halo. One thing to think about, having really long hair falling out is going to be really messy. It's easier to manage the fall out when it's shorter. You're going to lose it anyway 😔. I vote cut it! ❤👍

  • @stgeorgestore711
    @stgeorgestore711 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hair is overrated. It grows back. 🤗But... it is very emotional. As a cancer survivor I wore a wig and didn’t feel comfortable with a scarf but girl you can rock it. Do what you think is best. I shaved my head after the 14 days when it starts falling out in clumps. You got this girl, you are beautiful and glorious ❤️

  • @madisonw.4503
    @madisonw.4503 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    no wig!!! you’re beautiful no matter what and wigs seem like a hassle! you rocked the short hair look before anyway. i say bald beauty or bust ❤️ i say cut it now anyway so you don’t have to just watch it fall out.. love ya girl! you’re amazing!

    • @madisonw.4503
      @madisonw.4503 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      and you can play around with fun headscarves!

  • @heidi1651
    @heidi1651 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Wearing beanies was much more comfortable and natural feeling for me vs wig. I cut my hair very short before it started falling out. I’m glad I made that choice. The second chemo I got later which made my hair fall out again really made my head hurt as the hair fell out more rapidly.

    • @heidi1651
      @heidi1651 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      A plus is that you won’t have to shave your legs. 😊💜

    • @twinklemommy48
      @twinklemommy48 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Exactly!! Amen sister!! This is just what I said Tia! And enjoy the no leg, armpit shaving. It was the one thing I enjoyed about chemo! 😂

  • @teresaknight4064
    @teresaknight4064 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think it would be better to chose when you lose your hair, by cutting it, then to see it fall out day by day. You have a beautiful face and besides your beautiful spirit just shines through! Praying for you daily.

  • @sadiepeck8912
    @sadiepeck8912 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I would make a wig out of it so you can always have it! You will be beautiful no matter what though! You're beauty comes from within 🤟🏽

  • @maryahmu8937
    @maryahmu8937 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    If you cut it, being the beautiful and giving person you are, I can see you also donating it. If you keep it as your own wig, that's awesome too. So I think cut it cuz! Lysm!

  • @vanessaflanner22
    @vanessaflanner22 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Cut it and save it for part of your journey. Your hair is so beautiful I don't think a wig would look as good as your own hair.

  • @klbridg
    @klbridg 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I have had friends who faced that dilemma/decision. The majority cut the hair and donated, but saved a lock of it in a braid. They loved having several fun wigs, turbans, & hats. Cut it before it gets too thin and hold onto it until you make the decision.

  • @elliottyorke7524
    @elliottyorke7524 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I don't have an opinion on the hair issue, I think it's so personal so it should be your decision. I just wanted to let you know that I think about you and your family everyday and I am so grateful I stumbled on your Instagram and Tik Tok. You are the brightest light even in your own personal dark days. I am so very sorry that you are going through this, Tia. May God bless your mind and body today and always. Virtual hugs to you and I pray for your husband and sweet babies too.

  • @justjayde6189
    @justjayde6189 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I think it would be cool to have it just in case you want to wear it! And you don’t have to wear it if you don’t want to!

  • @rhondawhatley1591
    @rhondawhatley1591 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I would want my original hair,but I don't wear hats so I guess I would let it come out,but you do have beautiful hair.

  • @kristyallred727
    @kristyallred727 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    My 2 cents.... It's cold! You're used to tons of insulation even when it's short hair, bald head feels about 10-15 degrees colder than what your arms or legs feels. Human hair Wis are spendy! Synthetic are amazing and so many color/style options. Make sure you measure you head before ordering anything. Hair density is important so you don't look like your drowning in hair. All kinds of stuff to know about. Message me if you have questions. I would do the halo, you have lovely amazing hair!💜🦄🦄💜

  • @JennLaMay
    @JennLaMay 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    You look so good in hats. It would be fun to have your hair. But you rocked a fohawk. You can rock a shiny head as well. You got this! 👊🏼

  • @brynnas8476
    @brynnas8476 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I would cut it and make a halo wig. I think you would be beautiful without it but some days might be really hard and maybe you would want to have something to make you feel "normal". Also that is a part of you and it is so pretty!❤❤❤

  • @jessicacole16
    @jessicacole16 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    That’s hard I say cut it because I think it’s be so cool to have my own hair! Do what you feel is right! Love you!

  • @sheller91
    @sheller91 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    As a stage 4 cancer patient right now - Being bald is the easiest part of this nightmare. Wigs are itchy and hot. I use caps mostly. I would shave it off first because it hurts when coming out in clumps. Shaving was so much easier. Good luck.

  • @mikaylawoods5527
    @mikaylawoods5527 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I would just buy one! There are so many companies out there that make really realistic wigs nowadays. I'm getting one from pearls hair boutique, but I also know that "thehairmama" on Instagram has medical wigs that you can check and see if they would be covered by insurance. They're definitely not cheap, but you could totally have a custom one made to look just like your natural hair!!

  • @christinedruava5145
    @christinedruava5145 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    You will rock the bald, and will be so beautiful!! But I would cut and have the halo made just in case you want it someday 😉

  • @2000calleen
    @2000calleen 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I can see that would be a really hard decision to make. My thought is if it’s just a matter of a few days or a week before you loose your hair...you might as well save it for the halo. That’s just my thought. You are strong though and will make the right choice for you 😊

  • @jenileehoven5615
    @jenileehoven5615 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Honey whatever you choose-you will Rock it out! I understand it’s hard, I can’t even begin to imagine. This is really beautiful time for you to match Rose. You two can twin together with all the scarves and bun bands, hats etc.

  • @twinklemommy48
    @twinklemommy48 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I also cut mine short(er...it's never been really long) before it started falling out because I wanted it to be as untraumatic as possible. Once mine started coming out in clumps I shaved it. It hurt! Until it all fell out. I was actually using a lint roller (recommended by several cancer sisters) to get it out as fast as possible so it would stop hurting. (Just more FYI tips)

  • @kristenwachendorf6259
    @kristenwachendorf6259 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I say rock the bald! You are beautiful with and without hair! Cut it and the halo wig, then where it when you don’t want to be bald. I think the halo would be a special wig for you to have.

  • @samanthawolsleger3347
    @samanthawolsleger3347 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I think it would be kind of a cool thing to have. Even if you don’t end up liking the fit and don’t end up wearing it, it might be something cool to have after all of this.

  • @kaileighlyke2178
    @kaileighlyke2178 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    If course it is completely your decision, but I say shave it now for the halo. This way it can be on your time and you can have it as part of your journey for when you beat this to look back on! You got this Tia!! 💪💪💕

  • @connie2264
    @connie2264 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I would cut it now to save it until you are comfortable with a decision. Personally I think I would want to take control of the situation.

  • @maw31211
    @maw31211 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Definitely save the hair for a halo! You’re losing it anyway, might as well keep your hair! You can still always use other wigs too if you want but you always have that option.

  • @stacebelle

  • @practicalandpretty
    @practicalandpretty 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I would cut it ASAP just so if you do want to make the wig you’ll have the most hair for it! I think it’s something I’d want to have.

  • @nicolejensen3958
    @nicolejensen3958 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    @racheleloise7950 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Hey, I've just recently started following your journey alllll the way from England and think you are so wonderful and always so positive!! Being someone with long hair too, I think you should cut it and save it for now. It's better to have the option to use it at a later date, isn't it? You will look absoutely beautiful with or without a wig though ❤️❤️ xx

    @docswife1 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I would keep your hair however you can - - in a bag cut from a ponytail, braided, etc... (even if you don't have it made into a halo wig), but wouldn't wear a wig. You are so beautiful and confident, you would be gorgeous bald. Err on the side of caution. If you're asking, I feel like you'll regret it if you don't keep it somehow or another.

  • @lizzardsharp
    @lizzardsharp 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think it would be so cool to have your own hair. But your gorgeous face will be beautiful no matter what you choose. I say go all natural. :)

  • @wrightalan1
    @wrightalan1 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    If it were me I would shave it all off and use it for a halo just in case I wanted the option. Doesn’t hurt to have that set aside. Either way you will make the right choice. 😘🤟🏼 You’ll rock any look!

  • @karanlyn79
    @karanlyn79 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    There’s no harm in cutting it and making the halo wig, since the hair is going to fall out anyways. If you don’t like it, you don’t have to wear it. Then you can shave your head later and go bald if you love that, or wear amazing scarves or amazing colored wigs (like purple - which is what color I dye my hair bc it’s my fav). Ultimately my thought is you don’t want to miss the opportunity to make the halo wig by waiting too long.

  • @Ashjo2323
    @Ashjo2323 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I mean if you want to spend the money then why not, if your going to loose it anyway might as well hang on to it 💕 but if you don’t want to spend that much then don’t! love your sweet face

  • @briannenavarrete2734
    @briannenavarrete2734 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    It's a matter of a few days whether you cut it for the halo, or because most of it falls out. You may want a piece of "yourself" in the future when you look at yourself and don't recognize the person in the mirror. Do the halo. You can have it for times that you need to feel like the person you were before this hurdle came along. Love you!

  • @MikaleneIpson
    @MikaleneIpson 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hmmm that's a tough one. 🤔 but you rock any look so why not wear fun wigs! The pink one sounds awesome :) I probably would have a hard time keeping my own hair, seeing it would remind me constantly of loosing it. But you're much stronger than me and I love that you cut it short years ago to not be attached to it emotionally. Whatever you decide you're always beautiful!

  • @MisMaMake
    @MisMaMake 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think you're beautiful either way! You could pull off whatever you wanted to. Just throwing this out there, but have you heard of Cold Capping? A friend did it and she did not loose her hair.

  • @jenniferwatts1693
    @jenniferwatts1693 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Chemo changes your hair! So most likely your hair will be curly after it grows back!! I would make the halo wig so you can have it when you want it. If you end up not using it or liking it, donate it :) you will be beautiful no matter what and it will be worth it to have it if you want it.

  • @suzietriana9851
    @suzietriana9851 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    @gingermccready4446 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I would cut it and use my own hair. It’s so hard losing your hair. I’ve lost mine twice from different reasons and it’s heartbreaking! I’m suffering from hair loss now and it’s so hard on my heart right now! I say, cut it now. I think it will just be harder if you wait! You’ve had it short and were ok with it, so I think you will be fine!! You will be beautiful no matter what!!! 😊😊

  • @nicolefarish3755
    @nicolefarish3755 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I would do it! If it’s coming out anyways, might as well do it while you can. If you wear it, you wear it.. and if you don’t, you don’t! At least you’ll have the option :)

    I would say imagine that you don’t have it. Is it something you would regret not having? Imaging getting it and not wanting to wear it, would you regret spending the money on it? Which would you regret more? Do that!

  • @twinklemommy48
    @twinklemommy48 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hey girl! Let me give you my professional opinion...wigs suck!!! They are hot...itchy.. uncomfortable. I am totally into comfort, (so that's me. Comfort over looks everytime.) When I did take the time to put on a wig and makeup (also a pain because your eyebrows fall out and your eyelashes do too. So makeup looks goofy as well.) I had way more fun with just crazy wigs! The few times I used a wig, I was glad I didn't spend the money to make one from my own hair.

  • @thejennifermarx
    @thejennifermarx 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I'm probably in the minority on this one. I don't think I'd do a halo with my hair. It is hard to say since I'm not in the situation you are, but I think I'd just let it go and start over. Plus to me it seems kind of weird to wear my own hair when it isn't growing out of my head... I might cut it and donate it to someone else that would need a wig though.

  • @jpgu
    @jpgu 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    If you do it now and make it, you have the option. If you wait, you won't have the option later. You won't know how you feel about it later so I think I would want to have the option later.

  • @momofthreeful
    @momofthreeful 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    @angieoceguera9914 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Cut it and use it. What do you have to lose if you cut it.. a weeks time? Do you have to make the wig immediately? Cut it and think about it if not.

    Ephesians 3:14-19
    14 For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15 Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, 16 That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man; 17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 May be able to comprehend with all saints what [is] the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; 19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.
