Do all cancers cause hair loss?
While chemotherapy often causes hair loss for cancer patients, I've also heard of people with cancer who don't lose their hair at all. So, does *all* type of cancer, or their treatments, result in hair loss?

No, cancer itself doesn't cause hair loss, it is the chemotherapy drugs that do. For keeping the scalp cool and healthy, some people use light oils, but always consult the doctor first.
My uncle had immunotherapy and he didn't lose any hair. It's only certain strong chemotherapy drugs that make your hair fall out.
No, they don't. Many modern targeted therapies and radiations do not cause any hair loss. Speak to your doctor about the specific side effects of your plan.
Actually yaar, it's a huge misconception. Cancer itself doesn't touch your hair; it is just the side effect of specific medicines. So many people finish treatment with their hair intact.
