Jenna Fischer Debuts Bob 18 Months After Chemo, Shares Regrowth Timeline

Her post shares a month-by-month regrowth guide for others navigating chemo recovery.

Overview

  • The Office alum posted an Instagram selfie on Jan. 11 revealing a new bob as a recovery milestone 18 months after completing chemotherapy.
  • She outlined her hair timeline: stubble at one month, eyebrows and eyelashes by two months, a pixie at three months, and a bob at 18 months.
  • Fischer credited hairstylist Christi Cagle for support that included sourcing wigs, building custom hat-and-hair pieces, crafting her first pixie, and designing clip-in extensions.
  • She said her hair returned with a different texture, growing back thicker and more coarse, and described the process as an exercise in patience and surrender.
  • Followers shared their own regrowth experiences in comments, and Fischer’s update echoes her earlier message after her stage 1 triple-positive diagnosis urging people to keep up with mammograms.
