hair help!!!!
on 3/7/13 9:41 am
I am lucky that I have a lot of hair but for those who don't, maybe experiment with hats and other accessories. I thought I was done losing my hair b/c it really slowed down but I just broke a stall and noticed an increase in hair loss. Could be a coincidence????
Best wishes, sorry no real answer!
Hair loss happens. Nothing you do will prevent it. Biotin can help promote RE-GROWTH, but keep in mind it will re-grow everywhere your body has hair.

I bought something called "Great Hair Day" that helps my hair look thicker on the days I look in the mirror and see bald. The hairdresser suggested using an eyebrow pencil (tiny strokes) to fill in the thinnest areas. It works well and is certainly easier to find.
Now the bright side. My hair IS growing back in, and it's brown, not grey. Pretty cool.

Nothing helped my hairloss, except going in and getting a haircut that looked more flattering with thin hair. Long and stringy was not a good look. Shorter and sportier actually looked a LOT nicer on me.
My nails started going to heck after surgery, and biotin seems to help them a little.

Nothing will stop it falling out. It's already dead.
Taking Biotin or other supplements will help with regrowth, but won't stop the losses.
Mine started falling out at about 3 months. Im now 6 months and its slowed way down. I don't thing that that The last couple of weeks have really been much more than the normal amount people lose a day. I have lost about 40-50% of my volume and I had very fine hair to start with. I just wear it up more at the moment, so I can let it get a bit dirty for a few days which does help make it look thicker.
Not much. Sad, but true. But getting your protein in and taking biotin helps regrowth. I used Redkin Antisnap to help with combing through after washing it, not sure if it helped, but it smelled good and made my hair seem to look a bit fuller. My hair is finally coming back in well after a year, a year exactly today. It grows back. Not fun as it falls out, but it eventually stops and you almost forget about it after awhile. Take heart, it will get better in time.
“Not many of us are living at our best. We linger in the lowlands because we are afraid to climb the mountains. The steepness and ruggedness dismay us, and so we stay in the misty valleys and do not learn the mystery of the hills. We do not know what we lose in our self indulgence. What glory awaits us if only we had the courage for the mountain climb. What blessing we should find if only we would move to the uplands of God.? JRM
