If there is one thing that human beings treasure it is their hair. So, it can often be devastating for people when they start losing it.<\/p>\n
However, one American citizen, Mackenzie Baughn, who lost her own hair after chemotherapy, has found it can be a source of humour.<\/p>\n
For instance, Mackenzie was speaking on the phone with her mother one day as she was organising what to take with her to the hospital.<\/p>\n
Mackenzie had finished her chemotherapy, but her hair hadn\u2019t started growing back yet. However during the conversation, Mackenzie\u2019s mother asked her if she had packed her hair dryer.<\/p>\n
What made it even funnier for Mackenzie was the fact that she was wearing a headscarf at the time to hide her bald head.<\/p>\n
Mackenzie fell about laughing.<\/p>\n
Another incident that amused Mackenzie was her husband offered to go bald with her. Her husband is 6 foot 7inches tall with very long hair down his back.<\/p>\n
While she was flattered her husband would offer such a selfless act, and was very tempted to accept it, Mackenzie felt it would be a step too far.<\/p>\n
Being diagnosed with cancer<\/a> can be devastating for people, but handling related aspects such as hair loss<\/a> with humour, can go a long way to keep a person grounded.<\/p>\n After chemotherapy treatment, hair will gradually grow back, but maintaining a sense of humour can, it seems, help put things into perspective.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" If there is one thing that human beings treasure it is their hair.
