Question by Pebbles: Is there a gene that makes a cancer patient undergoing chemo or radiology immune to hair loss?
I heard from a friend of mine that there’s a gene that makes one immune to the loss of hair while undergoing chemo or radiology. Is she full of crap or is this the real deal?

Answer by SuperVibrationalEscrow Let’s not say she’s full of crap, just misinformed. Not everyone loses hair during chem or radiation.. it has to do with dosage and type of medication, not genes. There is no one who is immune to hair loss during radiation if the dosage is high enough for a long enough period of time. Both of my parents had chemo, neither lost hair. My mom had radiation, but only 3 treatments, she didnt lose much hair at all. But again, it isn’t genes that make the difference. They told us she wouldn’t lose much hair because of the type of treatment.
budurl.com hair loss in women has been a problem for many girls that I know. After tried a lot of hair loss remedies, I finally found a hair loss treatment for women. Melanie saved her own lost hair with a all natual way. I hope it would help hair loss in women for many friends.
It falls in chunks. But when I don’t use it, the amount of hair loss seems normal. This has nothing to do with the brand because I tried several ones and it’s always the same result.
Is this normal? Do you have any advice? Suggestion? What should I do?
My hair is dry and I feel that using hair conditioner is necessary.
