I finally shaved my head yesterday (oddly liberating) and was wondering what to use on my head? It is pretty sensitive and dry right now, but I still have a little hair so I am going to need to wash it with something!! Is baby shampoo good? Any ideas? Thanks guys! I am so glad I found this group!!!!

    Hi Mberg! I don't know as I
    Hi Mberg! I don't know as I didn't have to have chemo. But, I am sure someone here will let you know what they used. Very brave of you to shave your head!

    I would think baby shampoo would be gentle enough. Ask your oncologist?

    Glad you felt liberated! Baby shampoo should be ok to use. And, be sure and wear a hat or use sunscreen or something when you go in the sun.

    Baby shampoo can't hurt, for sure...
    As long as you've still got a bit of hair. While I was completely without any hair at all - I used the same moisturizing shower gel on my head that I used on my body.
