Thinning hair and hair loss are common side effects of both chemotherapy and radiation. While this can be challenging, most people can regrow their hair after treatment. There are multiple ways to take care of your hair before, during, and after this process to ensure the best possible outcome.

Our medical team suggests cutting your hair short before starting treatment, protecting what remains, and being gentle — use mild shampoos, avoid high heat, and consider using a satin pillowcase.
