Losing your hair can be one of the hardest parts of breast cancer treatment. It’s perfectly normal to feel distressed at the thought of it.

For some people, hair loss affects their self-confidence. They may choose to wear a wig, hat or scarf.

Other people are less concerned and don’t feel the need to cover their head. They view it as a sign they’re doing something positive to treat their disease.

Coping with hair loss is a personal experience and there is no right or wrong way to feel. The most important thing is to do what’s right and comfortable for you.
