Hello, I'm finding searching for sls free shampoo online a total minefield.
I'll be very fortunate not to have total hair loss, I've been told by my doctor with my treatment I'll have hair thinning. So, I'm looking for shampoo and conditioner to use during treatment.
Has anyone used any of these? Which is best?
Thanks all
Hi there, I had terrible amount of thinning during my chemo, tried to only wash it weekly, added organic rosemary oil overnight then used this which I think helped and continue now to use as sulphate free. Mines grown back wonderfully thankfully. Try not to panic, it is distressing at the time, though, I do understand . Wishing you all the strength to get through treatment and good health to come xx
Mongoo is lovely and gentle. I had 8 rounds for capox and my hair thinned a lot over the first few treatments but the thinning slowed quite quickly. I had some matcha oil capsules to help it regrow as well as taking bovine collagen powder. The collagen definitely made a big difference to the regrowth.
