How AI Hair Tool Myvana Is Transforming My Post-Chemo Hair Care Journey
When I underwent my first PET scan for Non-Hodgkin’s Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma, I couldn’t help but remember my mom going through the same process years ago. Losing a parent at a young age creates a strong desire to find connections with them. I found myself wondering how similar our battles would be.
A week later, my husband and I sat in front of my oncologist, asking important questions about the impact of chemotherapy on different aspects of my life, including fertility and my precious long hair. It was difficult to come to terms with the possibility of losing my hair, not just for vanity, but because it was a visual sign of illness.
After my second intravenous chemotherapy treatment, I watched my hair fall into our bathtub. By the fourth treatment, both my hair and brows were gone. As a beauty writer, I was fortunate to have access to industry leaders who provided me with special products to care for my scalp during treatment and hair regrowth.
When my hair started to grow, I realized I needed help to regain control and take care of my new hair follicles. That’s when I discovered Myavana, an AI hair tool that provides personalized hair care product regimens based on microscopic hair strand analysis and AI imaging technology.
Myavana’s “CARE Experience” involves analyzing your hair strands to determine the best products and regimens for your unique hair profile. After receiving my results, I found the best products to help rebuild and care for my hair post-chemo.
What I love most about Myavana is that it provides a way to track your hair’s health and engage with communities facing similar hair journeys. It’s an innovative tool that has helped me navigate my evolving journey post-chemo, as I embrace my new normal.
