We've got growth! However his skin is looking a tad dry now so hopefully the evening primrose and linseed will help.

Update.

His hair is growing now BUT I've noticed he's now generally thinning. As he's white with pink skin, I'm wondering if it makes it appear worse than it is?

Most likely. Pink skins shines through fair hair more than dark hair.

Ah so it could be that. That's a relief. He is coming up to 18 months. Lilith started losing hair when she was around this age but because she had darker coat it wasn't as obvious. I'll still keep an eye on him but hopefully it is just the aging process.

Engel, I do get what you mean, I can see a lot of pink with Twinkle and I sit there sometimes thinking,is he ok, did his coat always look like this, should i be worried etc... but Twinkle just carries on as normal..so I think Ria is right, it is the pink against white. It is more obvious.
