HAIR LOSS CAUSED BY CHEMOTHERAPY
WHAT CAN BE DONE?
Hair Loss is the most obvious side effect of chemotherapy. Most people who undergo chemotherapy experience considerable hair loss. The emotional turmoil hair loss creates is yet another major burden added to the other health problems of the person undergoing treatment. When hair falls out self-esteem plummets. The Soul Suffers too. A full head of hair symbolizes vitality, attractiveness and self-confidence.
If you are confronted with this problem, you need to consider what would be the best thing to do about it. Renee’s Hair Boutique, Hair Loss Solution Center will help you find the solution that is best for you.
WHY DOES CHEMOTHERAPY CAUSE HAIR LOSS?
Cancer cells are known to divide frequently. This is what causes cancer to spread and to travel. Chemotherapy is designed to target frequently dividing cells and to inhibit their dividing mechanism. Simply stated, chemotherapy inhibits the reproduction of cancer cells. Hair cells are also known to divide frequently. This is what makes hair grow. Unfortunately, chemotherapy does not differentiate between frequently dividing cancer cells or frequently dividing hair cells.
Therefore, chemotherapy is as effective at arresting the development and reproduction of hair cells as it is with cancer cells resulting in significant hair loss. Most people receiving chemotherapy will begin seeing a limited amount of thin, fuzzy hair a few weeks (2-3 weeks) after their last treatment. Real hair starts to grow properly within a month or two of the last treatment. After 5 months some 2-3 inches of hair may have grown. People with very short hair may be able to wear their previous hair style at this time.
FINDING THE RIGHT HAIR REPLACEMENT (WIGS):
Today, there are a variety of options available to those who experience hair loss due to chemotherapy. The choices range from doing nothing, wearing a stylish headscarf, or utilizing a wig to either mimic your current hairstyle or to transition into a hip new hair style, using hairpieces, hair extensions, etc.
Renee’s Hair Boutique, Hair Loss Solution Center supplies essential high end luxury wigs that will no doubt contribute to your psychological health and well-being during this often stressful and difficult time. Wigs will improve your sense of well-being and ensure top wearing comfort with their specialized properties and premium quality production.

HAIR LOSS SOLUTIONS: WIGS OR HAIR TOPPERS
Renee’s Hair Boutique, Hair Loss Solution Center has a variety of wigs available and includes almost every hairstyle and color. In order for a wig to perform properly it must appear natural. It must be comfortable, and its attachment must be secure. Renee’s Hair Boutique, Hair Loss Solution Center, certified Wigologist, Dr. Nicole Cvenkel (Ph.D.) has the knowledge, skills, and experience to fit you with a wig that will meet all three criteria.
When choosing a hairstyle for your wig, you should consider the styling and maintenance required to keep it as fresh and new looking. As a rule, the longer the hair, the greater the care requirements. Another major factor to consider is whether the hair should be synthetic, human or a mix of both (human hair and synthetic).
