I've said it before, but I will say it again. No one talks about hair regrowth and quite honestly, for me it's an ongoing reminder, well as much of a reminder as the daily tablets, 6 monthly Zometa and annual check ups, but anyway….back to hair.
My hair has been regrowing for over a year now, and it's gone from soft and baby-hair like to frizzy straw. I'm trying to grow it, so it's at the annoying “not long enough but not short either” stage and it has a mind of it's own, not helped by my lack of skills with a hair dryer,
I'm trying every product under the sun and once you can get by the massive range of choice, there are some amazing products out there. But isn't it confusing - do I want anti-frizz, de-frizz, no-frizz, just-a-little-bit-of-frizz, honestly I have no clue!
This is all exacerbated by lots of work travel, so hotel hairdryers that range from a pathetic puff of air to “burn your neck off” and of course none of the above mentioned frizz products come in less than 100ml for hand luggage!
On the plus side, at least it's growing back and by then I'll have tried enough shampoos, conditioners, sprays and creams to be an expert
PS, A very thoughtful colleague went out and bought me the products in the photo when we were on a work trip and the hotel freebies were pretty awful. There are some amazing people in the world and I'm lucky to know some of them! Thanks Jo.
