My grandpa has been doing Chemo for over a month now and he still has all his hair.

My aunt was diagnosed with cancer on the stomach, first they did surgery and then chemo to make sure it was gone. She spent several months receiving it, it wasn't until it stopped not long ago that her hair fell out. Maybe this is what will happen in your case too.

Hope you get through it well!

I'm not an expert on this, but I think people's response to chemo is different. I have heard of cases where some people didn't necessarily lose their hair during chemo or lost very little. Your doctor would be the one to tell you for sure.
