What HairToStay Recipients are Saying…

“Without HairToStay I wouldn’t be able to afford to do cold caps. The thought of losing my hair was actually harder to imagine than losing my breasts… Having a positive attitude plays a big part in getting through each day during active treatment.

Other Experiences

“I thought I was just protecting my privacy and keeping myself “normal” for my child. I didn’t know then the power that this process would have over my overall experience and, I believe, is having in my outcome.”

Kristin Haynes

Other Experiences

“I was devastated in the thought of not having my own hair to hold that veil in place on my wedding day… keeping my hair allowed me the opportunity to share my journey with who I wanted to share it with, and hold on to my secret when I didn’t want the world to know.”

Kathryn Sullivan
