Chemo frizz and curls

I remember seeing recommendations for products to use on post chemo hair. But cannot remember what the product name(s) were. 

I have about 2 inches of regrowth.  It is very frizzy near my forehead and soft curls over the rest of my scalp.

Any recommendations to tame the frizz? 

  • Hi Rosiee welcome to the forum..Well done on finishing your chemo. Do you have a hairdresser who you usually use? Most hairdressers are pretty good at recommending products as the chemo does affect our hair for many months after treatment finishes. Baby Shampoo is soft and gentle on hair and scalp but whatever it is it needs to be with no perfume and very simple ingredients for a short time. Gail 

Help us do whatever it takes, because we’ve never been needed more.
