EC Chemo

My daughter cold capped with EC but had lost 80% of her hair by cycle 3. She truly hated the cold cap and felt it was the worst part of chemo. Decided to give up and asked her hairdresser to clip off what was left of her hair. She was much happier then and got on fine with a wardrobe of chemo scarves and beanies, mainly from Etsy, until her hair grew back.

It's a very personal decision. We knew several patients who managed to keep a good 50% of their hair using the cold cap and we're happy to adjust their style.

Very best wishes for your successful treatment. xxx
