Hair Loss
One of the most psychologically devastating side effects of radiation and chemotherapy will be the loss of your hair. Most chemotherapy protocols have 4-6 cycles that repeat every 3 weeks, which means that you should prepare to be without hair for 6 months. Fortunately the hair loss is almost always temporary, and your new hair often grows back healthier and thicker than before.
Compassionate Beauty offers hair products and salon services to help you through each stage of hair loss and post-treatment hair re-growth.

Although nothing will ever make you feel as good as having your own hair, wearing a great wig during this time will definitely help you adjust to this 'new normal'. Compassionate Beauty has a fabulous selection of over 50 wigs in stock, allowing you to find the best fit in your color and style. And, our natural and synthetic wigs come in a complete range of prices to suit every budget. Compassionate Beauty has trained wig fitters on premises to personalize your look while giving you the comfort and fit that you require. Our discrete private fitting room ensures your personal comfort.
It is easiest to find comfort in a wig by choosing one that is close in color to your natural hair. Our team will help by working with your age, skin tone and eye color to determine the best shade in your color range. After that, the hair style and length is easy and fun to play with! Short or long, straight or curly, tinted, coiffed, teased - if you can do it to your own hair, you can do it to a wig. It is important to try on many wigs to get the best color, shape and fit, however. This of course is something you cannot do when you are buying from a catalogue.
Looking good (and feeling good about how you look) is therapeutic. Compassionate Beauty wants to help you look your best.
