A patient of mine had 4 rounds of ACT and within a realively short time her hair started coming in thick and curley and EXTREMELY healthy looking. I mean it was absolutely beautiful. She told me she used the product Nioxin (the shampoo and conditioner) She actually started using it even before her hair started growing back. She finished chemo after me and yet her hair was growing in faster then mine. So I ran down and bought some of that Nioxin and have been using it for over a month now. I think it helps the new hair follicles. I highly recommend you give it a try. My hair feels nice and thick and I see no visible areas of thin spots. It is also very soft. Nioxin is suppose to condition the hair follicles and is esp made for thinning hair. Check it out!!
Good luck.
