Chemotherapy and scalp care

I used simple shampoo and conditioner as it was what I was advised but the alternative was to use baby shampoo, anything that’s not perfumed and gentle on your scalp.

For chemo I was recommended Sanex body wash as this is hypoallergenic.

Hi Knittynanna

There's a "caring for you skin" section in this link that may help.

Cancer hair care | Macmillan Cancer Support

I used a child's leave in conditioner that helped moisturise my scalp and keep things soft. Childs Farm- Leave in Conditioner from Tesco. Probably available from other places.

Hi 

I used baby shampoo and for my scalp I bought some emu oil, which someone had recommended.  I never had an itchy scalp or anything.

Good luck
