Hair loss

Hi Lou Bear

Just a thought but what about asking a pharmacist? I wonder if they could recommend something mild that you can get over the counter. I do agree with your hairdresser though- I would suggest GP- or if it is difficult , perhaps an online consultation.

Thanks Jane. I hadn't thought about a pharmacist - think I'll try that first & tackle the GP if they can't help. 

lou bear if its dry skin because of chemo you could try massaging jojoba in, i have been using it all through chemo as they say it is close to natural sebum and its not really oily, i bought an organic one. if you have hair you may need to wash hair after but could let it sit for a bit

Thanks Djct. This sounds a great idea to stop my scalp getting too dry once the dandruff's gone

Hi Lou Bear  mine got dry too so I used head & shoulders bare which doesn’t have chemicals. My hairdresser also recommended rubbing oil into my scalp the night before I’m going to wash it - any oil is fine (coconut smells lovely) but just makes your hair look really greasy!
