Girl Time!
Welcome to our program called "Girl Time!"
Hair loss is a common side effect with chemotherapy. Medical staff will discuss the possibilities with you prior to treatment, but nothing will fully prepare you for when it happens, especially for girls (teenagers in specific). Hair loss may not seem like a lot to some who aren't sick, but to those who have cancer, especially teenage girls, it makes you stand out more, when you dont want to stand out, when you want to blend in.
So, we have started a program called "Girl Time!" for teenage girls ages 13-20. This program allows girls with cancer the time together with other girls for makeovers which include; Hair styling & cutting (if needed), make-up, nails done, pedicures and more. We give some gifts that only girls will love but because of hair loss from chemo, we will provide a beautiful head bandana (stylish & just for girls) that will put her in style. We say that "Every Girl Deserves Some Girl Time!"
Hair or no hair; all these girls are important! We want to help boost their confidence and let them know... "They ARE Beautiful!"
