Chemotherapy Hair Loss: Worst Things to Put in Your Hair

Chemotherapy Hair Loss: Worst Things to Put in Your Hair

Intro

Chemotherapy hair loss (chemo hair loss)  is a function of hair follicles being attacked by the chemotherapy treatment.

Chemotherapy targets cancer cells that are rapidly dividing cells (12-72 hour division). Chemo cannot tell the difference, though between cancer cells and follicles.

Why???

Because hair follicles are a rapidly dividing cells (12-72 hour division) as well. So chemo is designed to kill rapidly dividing cells. Thus hair is the victim.

The good news, though is that if the follicles are not killed completely, they are ready to get busy once you finished your last treatment. Of course, your body needs to detox from the medication, so the first 68 days are important. Hair growth may be slow at first, but we are here to help you maximize your hair growth and warn you of some things that you should never put in your hair. Before we tell you how to maximize the critical 68 days of supercharging your follicles again, let’s talk about what are the worst things you can put in your hair.

Chemo Hair Loss: Worst Things to Put in Your Hair

An important ingredient to avoid is silicone. You commonly find silicone in sealants, adhesives, lubricants, medicine, cooking utensils, and thermal and electrical insulation. Sadly, it is also found in personal care products because it makes a great spreading agent and glossing agent for really cheap.

Silicone is made from sand, therefore, it is marketed as natural and organic. Over the years, chemists have figured out how to make the molecules smaller and smaller, until they are so small that they lodge into your hair follicles, smothering them. The last thing you want at this point is to smother your hair follicles that have survived the battle with chemo.

To name a few versions of silicone: Dimethicone, Phenyl Trimethicone, Amodimethicone, Dimethicone Copolyol, Cyclomethicone, Cyclopentasiloxane, and the list goes on. For a more in depth look, check out our Silicone Derivatives Avoid List. Silicone and its derivatives, like a liquid glass or plasticized oil covering seal the scalp and stop the ability to absorb nourishment transdermally. Silicone derivatives are cheap fillers that made it under the radar as being safe.

Another ingredient to avoid is plastic. Plastics, like Polyvinylpolypyrrolidone a.k.a PVP, Polyvinyl, polydimethylsiloxane, Octylacrylaminde/Acrylates/Butylaminoethyl Methacrylate Copolymer, PEG, Cyclohexamine, Cyclohexylamine, Polyquaternium-69 Acrylates/Steareth-20 Methacrylicacid, Methacrylate, Methyl Methacrylate, Crosspolymer, Aminomethyl Propanol, Aluminum Starch Octenylsuccinate, and  even Talc.

Once hair starts growing in, most want to add “body” to their hair, so they use gel, mousse, glaze, and sprays. Unfortunately, all those items usually contain plastic to give the  feeling of “body” and stiffness to your hair. The more you use these products to add “body” to your hair, the more thinning that can occur. These ingredients smother your hair follicles, which is what the big manufacturers want. Why? Because you will have even thinner hair and need a better, stiffer product to add “body” to your hair, and they will be able to sell more gels AND a new category of hair growth imposter products.

Conclusion

It’s important to have the proper education as to what you need to do to ensure you have long-term hair growth, or you could end up with weak, thinning hair. Trusting conventional and high end brands is practically a guarantee to have thinner hair.

You must use products that are gentle, nourishing, and chemical-free. Belegenza Natural Hair Care understands all of this and has created a package of hair care products that take all the guesswork of which products are best for your hair follicles. Check out the Chemo Premium Care NOW package. (On that page you will also find links to all the other Chemo related hair growth and care packages). This is critical to use during the 68 days after your last chemo treatment. Chemo kills rapidly dividing cells.
