We have found that during your first round of chemo the hair loss is not very severe , it is usually 4 to 10 days after the second chemo therapy that women we have worked with have been affected by heavy hair loss , this is the general rule but it may wary according to the medicine that is being used and the strength it is administered in . At the time you do start to loose you hair you must not panic or loose heart. Keep Brushing and washing your hair as you have been doing previously, if you do not do this then the hair will get matted, and dread locked increasing the risk of a skin infection.

 

Your first reacting to the hair loss will be of extreme caution toward the hair as it comes off at the slightest touch, but you cannot hold back you must brush and wash and keep the hair and scalp clean. If you think it is better to completely get the hair removed at once , that's not a bad idea , rather than undergoing the heart break of loosing locks of hair every day,  Just use some one's electric razor and remove all the hair at home.

​

Using a wig to cover hair loss during chemo induced hair loss can be a tricky situation, remember your natural hair grows about an inch and a half to two inches every three months, if you have really fast hair growth it may grow as fast as an inch in every month. Once your chemo cycles are done, hair growth will not start for about 20 to 60 days post your last chemotherapy. The new Hair that grows after the chemo may have a change in the hair texture and hair colour,  many women who have straight hair before chemo , get curly hair post the chemotherapy.

 

 Hair Growth post chemo ,will be similar to your hair growth before you started the chemo cycles  , if we take your hair growth of about 1.5 to 2 inch every 3 months it will give you 8 to 12 inches of hair growth in the year after your complete chemo cycles are done, so when you choose a wig you may want to choose a short wig , thus you can stop using the wig in 6-8 months post the chemo as your hair would have grown out about 6 to 8 inches which is the length of a short wig . If you choose a long wig you can start cutting the wig length down every month a little at a time so as your hair grows out your wig get's shorter and once they are a similar length you can stop using the wig and let your own hair grow on . If you choose a long wig and do not cut it short regularly then you shall have to wait a long time for your own hair to grow out and match the wig length you have chosen before you stop using the wig, the choice is yours.

​

you can take a proactive step, choose a short wig before the chemo cycles start and cut your hair short to the length of the wig you have chosen, this way you will not be caught out without hair when the hair loss starts you can instantly make the switch from your own hair to a wig.

There are certain reason why you may want to wear a wig , this has nothing to do with what society thinks or what religion demands but rather with the emotional and mental stability of the very young or very senior people in the house or family , you are a strong woman a fire eater but even though you may explain the situation to a younger or very senior family member it may still be a traumatic experience for them to see someone they love without hair .You mot even want to put them through this , just think if you were a child and you had to see your mother without hair how would that have effected you ? similarly if you have a child you could really take the time even may be involve a psychologist to help a child understand why his or her mother is loosing hair and may be with out hair for a little while , yet the scars that are left due to the visual trauma of seeing your mother without hair are very deep and stay with the child for a life time ! you could do some other mischief ;) and not tell a child of your illness but rather put the hair loss on account of a skin condition or some other dermatological condition , or even as a life style choice you have made for a small period to see how you feel without hair ! You may choose other head covers such as a scarf but it does not give the look of natural hair , You may also choose to continue with your career and have to meet clients and work with people and you may choose to wear a wig in these situations so you don't have to reveal your personal life situations to any one . its your own business . 

​

Last and final reason you may choose to use a wig is to look at yourself in the mirror and empower yourself with the way you look , remember psychology is a big factor in any battle and if you think you would lose heart looking at yourself in the mirror and don't see hair then you should use a wig .

​

Wash your wig regularly , wash it once every 4-7 times you have used it depending on the weather pattern of the place you shall use the wig . If it is a hot climate wash the wig sooner, if it is a cold climate wash the wig once in a while .Let your nose and eyes be the judge of when the wig needs a bath , has the hair gone oily ? is there a sweaty odor developing , has dust clung to it ? observe these factors and then wash you wig .

If you have been diagnosed with cancer here are some basic things that doctor's often forget to tell their patients - do keep  these in mind , disclaimer most of these are basic things that you should do in your life any way , yet the times we live in we at Sukalp Life ™  & Miracle Hair ® can get the hard end of the law for giving you good advice so once again - Please consult your Spiritual Guru, Healer, Ayurvedic Vaidya, Shaman, Naturopath , Homeopath , Unani Medical practitioner, Chinese Medicine practitioner or Allopathic medicine Doctor before you implement any information on this page.

​

Now lets go , cancer cells feed on sugars , so you must quit all sugary ingredients immediately , regular sugar , cakes , cookies , chocolate's , breakfast cereals , bread , all forms of processed foods, all sodas and things your drink or eat out of a can , alcohol , even wheat and other grains that may be heavy on the sugars must be stopped immediately try switching to barnyard millet or some other similar millet growing in your area , Stop buying Flour's , buy the whole grain of your choice , soak it over night and the next morning you can grind it in a food processor and make a porridge out of it to eat , ready Flour's are made in huge quantities' and you never know if any toxins have gone into the flour with the grains ! Try and get as many salads in your meal as possible , break down your meals into 2 parts , the raw salads and trail mix of nuts and seeds first followed by cooked vegetables and some sort of millet grain , No meats of any kind ! even avoid fish as it can cause the body to heat up as per ayurvedic protocols it is not recommended ! Stop all ready made and processed food's immediately ! Go Organic Immediately , even your make up should become chemical free ,  say no to lipstick as many lipstick brands have chemicals that can effect your breasts , say no to hair colour's , also your skin creams and any other forms of chemicals you are applying to your skin . Please check the research reports below !

Stop using WIFI and Smart phones immediately , I have seen so many women making beautiful life style choices yet kept clinging onto their smart phones and WIFI and ruining their health ! use a cabled internet connection and use a basic 2G phone to make calls , other than this you should not use the higher data bands of cellular communication !! If need be wear clothes that provide protection from mobile phone tower signals so you would remain unaffected even if others around you were to use their smart phones , if you cannot afford the clothes that protect from mobile radiation , you could even put on silver plated or pure copper jewelry ! This will also help a little ! earlier in previous years the small users manual that would be given along with mobile phones would mention that the phone should be held 3/4th an inch away from your scalp when using it !! These days we don't see such warning any more !! I wonder why !! Please check the research reports below about links between cell phones , WIFI and cancer ! Just a few have been put down here , you can go to https://www.researchgate.net/search and search by your self you would find hundreds of such research papers pointing to links between Mobile and Wifi radiation and cancer !

​

Start using baking soda immediately , you need to start making your body alkaline , every time you drink water that is free from chemicals , also not stored in a plastic bottle but in a copper or glass bottle , make sure you add , half a tea spoon of baking soda per liter of water before you drink it , Slowly but surely your system will start to become alkaline ,remember we cant be too acidic or too alkaline we need a PH of about 8 for perfect health so don't over do the baking soda , just until you recover from your chemical and stress producing industrial complex induced disease ;)  The baking soda also must be chemical additive free , many company's add anti coagulation agents in the baking soda to stop it from clumping up . Make sure your baking soda does not contain any chemicals ! You can use a litmus paper to check the acidity of your urine in the morning and through the day this will give you some insight about what's happening inside of you ! 

​

Use the right vessels to cook and eat your food , stop using all form's of Teflon coated , or non stick frying pans or other food cooking vessels which have a non stick coating . Do not use any aluminum vessels to cook your food . try cast iron , steel , glass or even baked mud vessels 

​

Change your salt , move away from table salt , start using , Himalayan pink salt , or Celtic sea salt , or any other natural spring or sea salt available in your country . Table salt is usually processed salt that has all the minerals removed it , it may contain aluminum that has been added as an anti coagulation agent , Table salt it just salty without any of the benefits that natural salt should provide ! 

​

Take up Yoga , Falun gong , Tai Chi or some form of Asian spiritual exercise immediately to help your body and mind calm down , so it produces the right chemicals that will heal your body ! 

​

The basic positive health choices stated above are just the start of your life changing , physical reality changing journey , these steps have to be followed religiously for a very long time to get the desired health . Its not a quick fix , you must catch at least 2 months of the above life style choices to rid your body of 2 years of toxic living , so then you can do the math as you know how you have lived your life ! 

​​

remember , the above is a starting point it does not mean these choices will reverse your ailment , but it will make sure you do not allow this thing effecting you to come back into your life after you have beaten it ! 

​

take care

Love and Blessings
