hair dye/hair loss,

hi everyone, I’ve got any hair appointments next week to have my half head roots done, this would be my first hair appointment since diagnosis, and although I’m shredding more hair then normal I don’t know what to do with my appointment? Is it better to cancel it till my hair stops falling out, or get my roots done for Christmas as they really need doing? But I’m worried that having my hair done will make my hair loss even worse?

what your advice and experience with this?

Thanks 😊

I would delay appointment as you state "although I’m shedding more hair than normal ".

Your 'shedding' could be due to another autoimmune condition:-

I have no hair at present as it is not the first time I've lost hair. I am aware of how awful we feel when our hair is 'in trouble' or have none at all.
