Use relaxation techniques. Avoid eating for at least a few hours before treatment if nausea usually occurs during chemotherapy. Your doctor can tell you whether hair loss is likely to occur with the drug or drugs you are taking. When hair loss does occur, the hair may become thinner or may fall out entirely. The hair usually grows back after the treatments are over.
Some people even start to get their hair back while they are still having treatments.
In some cases, hair may grow back in a different color or texture. Hair loss can occur on all parts of the body, not just the head. Facial hair, arm and leg hair, underarm hair, and pubic hair all may be affected. At that hair may fall out gradually or in clumps. Any hair that is still growing may become dull and dry.
