Hair loss on crown
i have had 3 of 4 AC treatments (still have 12 Docetaxol plus Herceptin and Perjeta to go) and have been using the scalp cooler with great effect. But I have lost the hair on my crown and it is starting to become noticeable. Although I wear a baseball cap outside for sun protection. I’m starting to get a bit self-conscious and think I would like to wear something inside too but am not sure what as I still have shoulder length hair everywhere else... I could get away with a Santa hat but only for a week!
any suggestions?

A turban you could adjust maybe?

This lace cap could be worn differently and might look really cute with hair.

You could get a variety so not bored I guess. Hope something suits. Kath x - Hi @JoeyLiz.
Make sure you keep pushing that cap down in the centre every so often during treatment and also double check they are fitting it correctly.
Maybe you could wear one of those nice wide headbands. Some of them will open up enough to cover most of your scalp. And you can get some nice blingy ones.
