After going through chemo..how do you manage the regrowth of hair since it comes in so fine and thin

A thickening or volumnizing mousse works well. The good thing to know is that within a few months you should start noticing your hair becoming thicker again. That first new growth is like what you would expect to find with a new baby but it does get better.

It will come back to normal - you have to wait....just carry on regular day and don't worry about it.

GREETINGS, congrats for finishing chemo. I'm a cancer survivor too. I still have thin hair from the experience but I have thyroid issues too so not sure what's going on. I wore baseball caps, wigs, and got what I had in hair cut short like I intended it to look that way, at least it was cooler in summer. Your own hair should come back thicker and you will feel better about it.

Just finished months of aggressive chemo and then a bone marrow transplant in Feb. My hair is growing back too. Yippee for us!! :0) Mine came in thin at first so I wore a knitted hat...my kids laughed at the wig cause it just wasn't "Me". I was glad, that thing was hot and itchy! I then went to a crocheted hat when it got hotter out. Now I have enough to not wear a hat because you can't see my scalp anymore but it is VERY short. I have been asked why I cut it that short, ha! I keep it trimmed on my neck and around my ears so it looks freshly cut... with my husband's beard trimmer. Works like a charm. Mine is now starting to curl, which it never did before chemo. Aha...finally a cancer bonus other than a handicap sticker for my car...A FREE perm! Congrats on making it through that grueling time!!!!!!!!!

As a cancer survivor and undergoing chemo ,I lost a lot of my hair I actually purchased a wig which I wore to work and got a lot compliments on . it has been a year since I had chemo and my hair has never really grown back a lot since then .lucklily there are a lot of short cute hairstyles you can wear .I hope this helps and good luck with your situation I'll pray for you . I cant remeber if my avitiar is on my picture if it's a picture of me I am wearing a wig it it .

Mine came back fine and thin. I was advised to shave it all off and start again. Great advice, my hair is now thicker than it has ever been. Also I noticed that the colour was more consistent now it has grown back. My district nurse gave me the advice to cut all the new growth back. Apparently if you do this the new growth is stronger.
