[quote=Anonymous]A sufficiently high dose of estrogen as part of HRT has made the biggest difference in texture and probably hair loss. I suspect equally important to the hair thinning problem is taking minoxidil.

I never, ever heat style my collarbone length (white woman) hair. Air dry only with a non-alcohol-containing gel. The right light gel keeps hair as smooth/ shiny as a heat tool

I avoid harsh detergent ingredients in shampoos. This requires a lot of annoying label reading. A caution that those bond-building regimens like olaplex actually contain some really harsh chemicals that exacerbate the problem and then helpfully cover it up with a glue coating that temporarily makes the hair shaft look improved. Kind of like most manicures or a Brazilian blowout

I wash my hair every 3 daya and use a very light conditioner because it’s fine. When my my hair texture started getting straw-like after menopause and also thinning badly, I went at this hard and it’s worked. I don’t look good with short hair so I need to be serious about protecting longer lengths. I was able to actually right the ship!   I’m mid-50s[/quote]
