Dear lybrate-user ji Chemotherapy has its own effects of Alopecia. It varies from patient to patient and Chemo to Chemo. If it?s the hair you are concerned about it does grow back 3 months post therapy and darker and thicker. If for cosmetic purposes better still these days wigs are available and in customised options. Regards.
