I am getting my first unit in a couple of weeks. Like most of you I have agonized over my hair loss for years. I don't need to explain what that is like... I am finally going to do something about it, and I am psyched! I have been reading this forum for over a year, and the thing that struck me the most was how open and helpful everyone was. Especially the veterans...

I am starting to get together the things I know I will need, and would appreciate some advice on a few specific items.

1. What is the best Spray in Leave in conditioner with UV protection?

2. What is the best Hairspray? I prefer a medium to firm hold that will last all day.

3. What is the best styling mousse or gel?

Thank you in advance for your help!

Hi MusicMan....... can you tell us which country you live in ? Some products are more freely available in certain countries than in others. There are products mentioned here by U.S.citizens, which are not available in Ireland and so on. Have a look at http://www.remysofthair.com -- I did a post last week saying that I have ordered their `` system`` and am still awaiting delivery [it has been despatched ] --JRob had a big hand in the creation of these products. They may be a bit on the expensive side compared to products you can /could buy in a drug store, but I`m hoping they will be superior. I also posted pics a few nights ago of a gel I have used before, with no ill -effect on the system. I don`t use hair spray but hopefully someone who does, can give some advice here.Have a look at the post `` chemically straightening hair`` where I have posted pics of the conditioner I use, and the Lòreal gel. Hope some other wearers can chip in here to advise you too... Paul.

Thank you Paul... I live in the US. I'll take a look at the link you suggested. Many thanks!

I don't use much product when I style my hair.
I have a spray bottle that is full of water. I squirt some conditioner for color treated hair (biolage).
Spray all over my hair and then style.
Too much product builds up and then your hair will look dirty/greasy.

dont use much products myself, but when I de/ re-attach I always put in some Fudge light-medium definition wax, just to make it a little dirty and more manageable. Dirty hair is more manageable. I don't add much cause it would look too greasy then. Sometimes, when I want to go for the wet/gel look, I use Tresemme Hair Mousse (Jojoba oil), very very very good... but don't over do it. I don't like to shampoo my hair too frequently but if too much product builds up, you'll have to wash it.

This is all very helpful. Keep the advice coming! Thanks
