Hair thickening

Hair thickening - I’ve been in remission for just over 2 years and ever since my hair has come back it’s ridiculously thin does anyone have any tips on what I can do to thicken it? It’s in great condition but it’s just so thin? 

  • Hello Jessicashanti, 

    It's great news you have been in remission for over 2 years but I am sorry to hear that treatment has caused it this thinning. We have information on our website on coping with hair thinning due to cancer treatment on this page which I hope will include some helpful tips. It might also be worth asking your hairdresser for advice or perhaps find a hairdresser who has had experience of hair thinning as a result of chemotherapy.I am sure they will have expert advice specifically targeted to your hair. 

    I am sure you will also hear from others here who have also experienced hair thinning and I hope they will have some great tips for you based on what worked for them. So I will let them come and say hello and share their hair stories with you!

    Best wishes,
