Attachment 346

This is my hair in its natural state. I guess you could call it curly?? I do not "relax" or "perm" my hair. All i do to straighten it is blow dry it, which i have stopped doing because ITS FALLING OUT. I thought if i stopped using heat on it that it would at least slow donw the process but that is SOOOOOO not the case LOL! I knew it would come to this. I'm not in denial or anything. I just want to know if anyone has suggestions about moiturizers or something....ANYTHING!!!!

HELP! 911!

Up your protein..that helped a litle for me.

Try that Biotin. A friend of mine takes a pill of it every day and bought a shampoo that has it in it. It has slowed it way down and she already has new growth coming back in.

im taking biotin already from what i understand it only helps new growth come in fuller. im not at the new growth stahe just yet lol! i have some nice "fuzz" coming in around my edges but i mean GOSH!

how much more protein can we absorb? anybody know what the max is?

[MsVickie]

I cant help ya honey but im here for the support right now. Yma is on to somthing I think. I think i posted before that I saw this lady Dr talk about her surgery and she stated and screamed it ...... If you dont eat enough protein you hair will fall out. Mabye your seeing you self shed? If not honey its not ALL gonna fall out. I forgot to mention this was a black Drs also. Actually she was on Big Medicine come to think of it. She was the one who had plastic surgery.

You Dont Look So Bad In Curly Hair Girl... I Dont Know What To Tell You Cause When I Was Pregnant My Hair Was Falling Out And There Was Nothing I Could. No Matter What I Tried It Was Going To Fall Out No Matter What!!!

My hair got pretty thin up to about 6 months out from surgery. I ate the protein required by my doctor, took my vitamins, and eventually my hair started to recover. It was distressing at first for me too. Hair is not a priority for a body healing, recovering, and losing weight rapidly. Don't worry, I'm certain it will come back. Just keep up with the diet your surgeon gave you. Take care, Amy

i know its not a priority, BUT its tough enough being shaped wierd, jigglin all over the place, having little to no eye lashes (those started falling out weeks ago) and now this????? i'm on vacation for 8 days. im going to lock myslef in my room and cry LOL!

i'm just being dramatic. i knew it would happen. ive been shedding for a while but been in denial about it. and now theres no denying it.....OY!

[MsVickie]

No Locking you self up now. Its a part of this darlin. You will one day look back at this and say.......It was ALL WORTH IT !. Now on that vacation go buy a new outfit......dont pay to much and mabye some soft new eye lashes? Try out that hair piece you have hidden and have a good time.
