Ask them: I expect that your hair is not exceptionally hard to dry and it would not pose a problem but ask the Dr team that will do the Tx. They may have a handout for info on what to avoid/do/expect. Dry it as well as you can and tell them to let them know to check for safety. Best wishes for successful Tx.
