I've had 2 rounds of chemo and daily radiotherapy for 6 weeks. Finished last week - yay!!
My once very thick hair has (as warned) thinned an awful lot. I don't have bald patches but you can see my scalp. Texture is now fine and weak and all colour stripped. I feel like my hair has been stripped of strength, lustre and protein.
I'm currently using baby shampoo and simple conditioner. I've been advised I can now use regular shampoo.
My question is what products do you guys recommend to restore strength, to thicken and go look shiny again.
Help!
My hair is most definitely a big part of me znx my identity. I always wore it short anyhow on a kind pf messy almost semi punk style.
I have a wig and it's fine it's just not edgy enough for me
Look forward to hearing from you lovely people
Xx
