Hair dye on ibrutinib?

[KAS8]

Hi guys. Has anyone dyed their hair while on Ibruitinib? As far as I know it is an inhibitor rather than chemo.

I have twice in 7 weeks no problem

Hi I did dye my hair but as infrequently as possible because the Ibrutinib was making my hair thin out and break off at root. Good luck, Janice

I dye my hair monthly and have been on Ibrutinib for ten months now. No issues.

I dyed mine in FCR but used a henna based product ... It was ok but not the same ..It was soooo good to use a properating dye! Looking and feeling good really helps the process!

Yes and I ve done so for more than 2 years. Makes me feel so much better to have blonde (peroxide) highlights!

My hair was v thick but has become finer and lost most of its curl since diagnosis - including w and w - but I ve adapted style to match

Very best

I just asked my oncologist this last week! I was afraid to do it for a year, but he told me to go ahead, there would be no problem. As others have said, my hair, once thick, has become much thinner, but no breakage, and I know coloring my hair will make me feel so much better.

I have had no problem with dyeing my hair, on Imbruvica for 3 yrs. and my hair has gotten thicker and curly !
