Will my hair grow back?

Trevor Sorbie (Director) gives expert video advice on: How quickly will my hair fall out?; Will my hair grow back?; Will I lose my eyebrows and eyelashes during chemotherapy? and more...

Hair will come back after chemotherapy. That is a fact. The interesting thing about when the hair grows is that it in 60% of the people that have chemo, their hair will come back in a different form. When I say that, what I mean is, it could come back a different colour, it could come back a different texture, it very often comes back curly with people who have had straight hair, and basically it can have a whole different thickness. The toxins are destroying parts of the body and killing off the cancer, or trying to, and therefore it is affecting things like the follicle of the hair and it disturbs the way hair is formed, so that when it does grow, it comes back in a different form. But the most important thing is: the hair will come back.
