Every bit of hair will fall out during chemotherapy, but when it stops your hair will grow back. At your age, your peers should be understanding and you won't have to worry about being ridiculed for not having hair for a while.

It's a bit different for everybody, with the eyebrows - I've known some people that lose them, others that don't. It would probably also depend on how intensive the treatment you are receiving is.
The same applies to the amount of time it will take for hair to grow back - it won't all fall out at once, and once it does, you should expect it to take somewhere from 1-5 months to grow back, with 3 being about average. Good luck, and don't worry about it much - your life and health are more important than your appearance for a few months, though I'm sure you'll still be concerned.
