Using these caps throughout my treatments was one of the best decisions of my life. Not only did they reduce my hair loss to around 30-40% (even with my fine hair), but they also had a significant positive psychological impact.

On February 14, at just 26 years old, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. My first question to the doctor was, “Will I lose my hair?” Unfortunately, the answer was yes. I cried a lot, but soon I started looking for alternatives. That’s when I discovered the Garde tes cheveux Foundation. However, several healthcare professionals told me it wouldn’t work. I didn’t give up, kept researching, and found positive testimonials, especially through the “Communauté Garde tes cheveux” Facebook group and resources shared by the CHUM. I decided to try the cold caps, and I can confidently say today that yes, they work! Using these caps throughout my treatments was one of the best decisions of my life. Not only did they reduce my hair loss to around 30-40% (even with my fine hair), but they also had a significant positive psychological impact. Of course, the process requires some organization. Thankfully, my partner supported me every step of the way. The first treatment can feel overwhelming, but once you establish a routine, everything becomes much easier. The key is to focus on what you retain, not what you lose. Without the cold caps, I wouldn’t have had this opportunity. I was the first person in my region to use the cold caps. My experience helped healthcare professionals, my family, and friends better understand this option. I sincerely hope that, in the future, healthcare professionals will recommend cold caps with greater openness and that more studies will be conducted to support their effectiveness. Cold caps truly change lives, both physically and emotionally. I highly recommend them—believe me, they make a difference. 💙
