About 1 in 8 women in the United States (between 12 and 13%) will develop invasive breast cancer over the course of her lifetime. About 70-80% of breast cancers occur in women who have no family history of breast cancer. These occur due to genetic abnormalities that happen as a result of the aging process and life in general, rather than inherited mutations. A woman’s risk of breast cancer approximately doubles if she has a first-degree relative (mother, sister, daughter) who has been diagnosed with breast cancer. About 20-30% of women diagnosed with breast cancer have a family history of breast cancer. All statistics were gathered from http://www.breastcancer.org/
Breast Cancer is a condition that unfortunately touches the lives of many people. If we all do our part to aide in the advancement of research and care, we may be able to continue moving in a positive direction. During the month of October, Hair Decisions and Oasis Spa is offering Redken ShadesEq Temporary Haircolor Services complimentary in exchange for a donation to the "Susan G. Komen Foundation." This service includes a detailed analysis of the hair and its color; as well as a customized haircolor formulation and application.
