Hina Khan’s mother cries as actor chops off hair while undergoing cancer treatment: ‘I prefer to let go of my beautiful hair before it begins falling out’
Hina Khan, a popular television actress, resorted to social media on Thursday morning to reveal another sad chapter in her continuing struggle with stage three breast cancer. Hina captured her hair-cutting experience in an emotional video, which was an important and courageous step in her therapy path.
Hina Khan, an actor, recently detailed her battle with stage three breast cancer, including the emotionally difficult choice to remove her hair. Khan announced her diagnosis publicly last week in a statement that read, “Despite this challenging diagnosis, I want to reassure everyone that I am doing well.”
Many cancer patients experience hair loss as a result of therapy, so Khan chose to “let go of my beautiful hair before it starts falling off.” In a video posted on Thursday morning, Khan is seen sitting in front of a mirror with hair stylist Dwyessh Parasanani, preparing to get her hair cut. While she is having her hair sectioned and braided, her mother can be heard crying and attempting to cheer her up.
Parasanani gives Khan a set of scissors so she can cut the front area herself before giving her a haircut. Khan admits at the end of the video that she feels “liberated.”
In the caption, she explains that she has decided to get a wig manufactured from her own hair, which provides both practical and emotional benefits. “I have decided to use my own hair to make a nice wig for this phase,” she says.
