My hair was once long and quite thick, but it all changed. Now it is so soft that I can't really make it look good. I'm in my mid-fifties but haven't completely gone through menopause. Does any one have any solutions?

maybe you can get a cut that fits your hairs texture...like a perm or a pixie or, soft shag or something that is easy to take care of for your soft hair.
do you think it is from estrogen levels changing I take dhea...you might want to read on it and ask your doctor....i swear by it and my doc told me to take it..

Try getting a body perm or even highlights or all over color. Any chemical process will rough up the cuticle layer of your hair a bit. It's not very damaging as long as you don't over do it, but it will add a little texture to your hair. Your hair will hold a style better, and will seem fuller. Usually women your age have the opposite problem... hair turning grey, and therefore very coarse and wirey. Consider yourself lucky!

Take Vitamin B supplements. You are lacking in Niocin.
Try Nexxus VitaTress Food Supplements. They work great and make your hair thick and full. I took them when I was pregnant because my hair started to thin because my body chemistry changed. Give them a try!
