Women & Social Expectation

A study revealed that, women believe that people are judged on the basis of appearance first, and talent or personality second. In a society where healthy people often feel they cannot measure up to media standards of attractiveness, It's not surprising that cancer & hair loss patients are concerned about the effects of hair loss pertaining to their appearance.

GENERAL  COPING

For many women and children, the way we feel about ourselves is closely linked to the way we look. Losing your hair can be devastating. There are often feelings of anger in being thought of as, unattractive and unfeminine. Hair loss may also make one feel vunerable, exposed and can be a constant reminder of your cancer or illness.

PATIENT  COMMENTS

 

I was devasted when I lost my hair, because I had long thick hair that I had been growing for years.

I know it may sound strange, but for me, losing my hair was worse than the mastectomy

When my hair fell out, my seven year old asked me not to meet her at school, until my hair grew back.

My three year old would say "Why does mommy look like daddy" ?  He did not understand my baldness!

At first, I did not let my husband see me without anything covering my head

I worry about losing more hair every day

I feel self-conscious about my looks

I worry that I am unattractive

I worry about how my hair loss will affect my career, marriage,dating.& sexual activity


  What Our Hair & Head Garments Provide For These Patients

Studies show that there is a factor, which seems to predict better psychological adjustment for women and children with cancer and hair loss:

The Prediction Is:   The less they believe their physical appearance is, and will be affected by cancer and hair loss, the better their adjustment seems to be.!

While these patients are in a state of despair, un-certainty and receiving treatment, many are also being robbed of what some consider, their most prized possession.

             ........THE HAIR ON THEIR HEAD........
