The hair

I am totally amazed at the number of people who stop me to compliment me on my hair! I am not saying I think it looks bad, but really? When they ask me who does my hair or who cut my hair I explain it is hair by chemo. I wonder how long I can use this excuse to keep it realllllly short? So far, it is not really long enough to do anything with so the options are very limited. I am dead broke as well so hair cuts and coloring are not an option. What can I say, just riding that gravy train.
