THE TRUTH ABOUT CHEMOTHERAPY HAIR LOSS AND THE COLD CAP
Hi Guys,
** ALWAYS TAKE YOUR DOCTORS ADVICE **
That's my advice before I tell you my story. When I see people giving advice to cancer patients, who have no clue it's worrying, especially when they claim to be experts.
So, today's video is all about hair - chemotherapy and hair loss to be exact and it explains one of the questions I'm asked most and the one some are afraid to ask - "If you've had chemotherapy, why have you still got hair?"
If you don't know you might have made assumptions, so I talk about hair loss from chemotherapy, how to prevent it and how to prolong the life of the hair you have, along with sharing with you my first hair cut since diagnosis and lockdown.
PLEASE share with somebody you know you might be going through it.
I'm not an expert, but I'm happy to share my experience.
Tx

I am so glad this worked for this woman. I don''t think I have the guts for it. I say this because I can barely handle the cold gloves and booties for neurapathy ! I say before deciding on cold capping but the ice gloves and foot covering, wear them for a full hour and see how you feel. If you can handle that, then go for cold capping. I was very uncomfortable w/ just the feet and hands frozen so I KNOW I can't do cold capping. EVERYONE is different ladies so worth a try but please just read up, since it is a bit $$ and if you aren't lucky to have a hospital w/ the machines an you say use like polar caps, it also is a lot of preparation and you will need a helper.

Thank you very much for all the information your have shared. I've been diagnosed with breast cancer and my treatment starts 10 th of May. I have been told I will loose all my hair and definitely going to opt for cold cap. I've already got myself a wig😅 and luckily got the same style as mine . 🤞Fingers crossed I don't loose my hair as yes that's our identity. 8 rounds of chemo , then surgery will take place . Wish me luck. I'm sure The Lord above has got something better planned for my ahead by giving me cancer . I say bring it on.. I'm here waiting with open arms and can't wait for chemo to start .. Bless you my dear for sharing . All the best

Hi thanks for this video , Im concerned as i had my first chemo and cold cap with the paxman machine version and didnt feel cold at all 😳
-
May I ask, what was the drug blend you used the fist time vs. the second time. Thank you
-
Such a helpful video. I start tomorrow and I'm finding hair loss the worst. I have very long hair. I've already lost half of it from last chemo. I am going to try cold cap this time

Was this your hair length after the cold cap? Or was your hair cut short like in the photos shown? Did you also lose your eyebrows? I’m asking because I may be doing treatment soon.
