Hair loss - hair loss due to chemotherapy

An OncoLink visitor asks about hair loss due to chemotherapy:

Why does chemotherapy cause hair loss? Do all chemotherapy drugs cause hair loss? Which chemotherapy drugs cause hair loss? Is the hair loss permanent? What can I do if hair loss is expected with my chemotherapy treatment? How do I care for my wig?
