When can I return to my regular routine and start using my usual hair products again?

It all depends on the individual, as every body reacts differently. In general, hair loss tends to stabilize between three to six months after the end of treatment. You are the best person to determine when the time feels right. When you notice that the shedding has stopped, that’s usually a good indicator. Many people adopt new habits during this period, such as using shampoos free of chemical additives — products that are beneficial not only for your hair, but also for your body and the planet. Many choose to stick with these products even after treatment is complete. If you wish to go back to using your previous shampoos, it is generally recommended to wait at least three months after finishing chemotherapy. As for hair dye, the same principle applies: you are the best judge of when the time is right. That said, we recommend choosing natural dyes, which are gentler on the follicles and increasingly offered by specialized salons. You can also refer to the question about hair care and maintenance in our [https://gardetescheveux.org/en/faq/](FAQ) for more guidance — it includes several related questions and helpful answers. When it comes to getting a haircut, some people choose to do so earlier. Again, it’s a personal decision: there’s always a balance between well-being and recommendations. When in doubt, trust your instinct — you are the best judge of what feels right for you.
