A member asked:
After having chemo and radiation for breast cancer, would your hair come in different textures?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: It is not uncommon for hair to regrow more curly and a different texture after chemotherapy. I have seen some pretty amazing changes. Nothing to worry about. Think of it as chance to be different.
