Hair salons help promote breast cancer awareness When women go to their hair salon in April, they may wind up talking to their stylist about an important topic: preventing breast cancer. Public health units in Southwestern Ontario are work- ing together with select hair salons on a project called "Be a Breast Friend" to raise awareness about the im- portance of breast health. . "Salons are places where women have time to talk and socialize with their stylist," says Karen Bergin -Payette, Public Health Nurse with the Huron County Health Unit. "Clients trust and listen to their stylists." During the month of April at participating salons, styl- ists will be handing out "Be a Breast Friend" information packages to interested clients. Stylists will also be encouraging women age 50 and older to call the Ontario Breast Screening Program to book a mammogram. Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in women in Ontario. For women age 50 and older, the risk of breast cancer increases. Finding breast cancer early improves treatment op- tions and survival rates. A mammogram is a breast x- ray that can find changes in the breast even when the changes are too small to feel. Unfortunately many women fail to have regular mam- mograms. What Every Woman Should Know • Be aware of how your breasts normally look and feel. Talk to a doctor or nurse practitioner about any chang- es. • Ask a doctor or ; nurse practitioner to examine your breasts every one to two years. • • If you are between the ages 40 and 49, discuss whether you need a mammogram with a doctor or nurse practi- tioner. • Women age 50 and older should have a mammogram at least every two years. Women can book their own ap- pointment by calling the Ontario Breast Screening Pro- gram at 1-800-461-0640. No doctor's referral needed and there is no cost. • Reduce your risk of breast cancer: be a healthy weight, eat well, be active, limit alcohol, live smoke-free and be screened. 1, www.huroncounty.ca/library.
