Individually: It depends. It may take a few months. However, if you already have problem with hair loss to begin with - you may have more problem with your hair growth.

Varies: Hair growth after hair loss due to chemotherapy is variable. In general if your hair grew fast prior to therapy it may return more quickly (months) then if you had slow growing hair or hair loss prior to therapy.
