Help us raise awareness for cold-cap therapy or scalp cooling
Help patients keep their hair and boost their self-esteem

A bald head is one of the most visible and devastating side effects of cancer treatment not due to vanity but because it is a constant reminder to the world of an illness some may prefer to deal with privately.  Cast Your Pearls is proud to report that hair loss may not be inevitable, thanks to an amazingly simple treatment called scalp cooling or cold-cap therapy that uses extreme cold to protect hair follicles from chemotherapy.

Hair loss from chemotherapy has often triggered depression, low self-esteem and a loss in hope.  Some women have even delayed their treatment or opted for less effective treatment to avoid the exposure of their illness to family, friends or co-workers.

The cost of the cold-cap is steep for cancer patients and not covered by insurance.
