Hi all
Doing a hamper for MIL xmas, she just finished a years treatment for breast cancer inc chemo and radiation, I have bougt an avon sensitve bubble bath as i know she wasnt abel to have baths due to scar and was thinking of buying a good brush and hair products as she plannign on ditching the wig soon
if anyone has any recomendations product wise id love to hear them - she has very fine hair which is short i though by getting brush and products she could blow dry for more volume

Hi there, after my hair came back in my hairdresser recommended Nioxin shampoo. Its 8.50 for a 125ml tube but you don't need a lot and its really helped thicken my hair up (more so than normal high street ones). I know its expensive but trust me it works and it smells divine. There are 4 different kinds of Nioxin shampoo. Level 1 fine/thinning hair, Level 2 ultra fine/thinning hair, Level 3 fine/thinning colour treated hair, Level 4 ultra fine/thinning colour treated hair. If you search in Google you'll find where stocks it. Honestly it really makes a difference.CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera. You can enjoy it even if you don't understand it and too much can give you a headache the next day J0

If you really don't want her finding out then speak to the nurse at the health centre she's with. They'd be able to keep you right about what your Mum wouldn't have been able to eat.CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera.
