At Compassionate Beauty the service takes place in a private room with dimmed lights, flickering candles and soothing music playing. For some it is a solo event, for others, family members offer support, and for a few, it is cause for celebration with friends. While little can change the most devastating side effect of chemotherapy – hair loss – we decided to call it the Loving Head Shave, and follow it with a scalp massage in essence, easing our clients into their new reality in comfort.
