    Hey guys! A lot of you have been asking over the past several months what steps I have taken to get my hair looking fuller and healthier. I also received a lot of comments after my last video asking about all the treatments I had done for my hair. The reason I haven’t told you guys about it until now is its honestly a really intensive process that I have been going through to het back and keep the hair I have been able to and I hated recommending things that were expensive, time consuming, and painful. But I want to show you guys what I have done to help get my hair back a little so that maybe it can help someone else out there going through the same thing! Let me know if you have tried any of these things and how they worked for you! Love ya💖

      Although I don't suffer from Alopecia I do have fine hair, I use conditioner every other day. I do it for the same reason to keep from weighing my hair down. I only use one styling product (It's a 10) unless I need to use heat then of course I use a heat protectant. Other than my daughter I have never been able to convince a stylist not to put all those different products in my hair because it's glued to my head before I even get home!😂 I have to say once again I admire your courage for discussing this medical problem that so many suffer from, also once again you are stunning! 💕💕 What a wonderful informative video!

      I’m wondering why have you decided to leave minoxidil and other hair medication as the last resort? I know nothing about these drugs and I also went the natural route first, but my hair loss was due to severe malnutrition because of a tumor in my small intestine. Even though it was a “temporary” issue, it affected me a lot, too, so I completely understand your commitment. I now try to have a well balanced and nutritious diet, take my vitamins and use aloe vera and castor oil combined with coconut oil and sapuyul oil, too.

      @@hannahalyssa1473 Yes, girl. Don’t I know. I’m a manager for a healthcare revenue cycle company, so what my team does is fight insurance companies for payment of hospital claims. I’ve been doing this for 22 years now, and it was bad when I started, but it has gotten SO much worse. They’re getting very creative these days with coming up with reasons to deny claims. Either that or they can’t find a good reason and just take forever to pay. And that’s HOSPITALIZATION claims. When you consider other things that most insurance either won’t cover or cover only very small portions of (hair loss, infertility, dental implant surgery), it’s really infuriating.

      I have medical issues since 2 years and it keeps thinning 😢

      Insurance wasn’t designed to help you, but to exploit you. Everyone has to start somewhere. The ‘healthcare industry’ is a pharma Nazi industrial complex. It took me years of research and dealing with the sick care minions (mostly good but mislead people) … and btw the entire pharma driven allopathic form of healing was based on a combo of a literal snake oil salesman known as ‘Rockefeller’ and expanded by literal Nazis who spread throughout the Americas after ww2, most of whom received no consequences or hand slaps for their criminal use of ‘science’. The pharmas today, literally do not care how many lives they destroy or end. And it has a LOT to do with the nefarious people responsible for establishing it. I was told 20 years ago by a former allopathic md who switched to naturopathy, that the ins companies are ‘in bed’ with the practice of what most of humanity thinks is the ‘authority’ or God like truth of how to best help people with health problems. It’s actually a good thing that there are important ant areas for which the insurance doesn’t cover, because it leads people away from them. However, you gotta watch out for the allopathic minions who will deny common easy cures, gaslight you and such… they are on CZcams making videos but most of them will be that nice doctor you go to. Many are knowingly lying, many just repeat the lies they were taught. It is frustrating because they do have some good options. You gotta learn as much as you can to navigate the system. Hopefully you won’t have to make too many mistakes in taking their snake oils… to learn. One tip… avoid any antibiotic that ends in ‘floxin’, you might be ok if you take them, but if you do and six month later you snap your Achilles tendon or something like that, or other serious, difficult to cure injury, it’s due to this antibiotic … your allopathic doc is likely to deny it, because that’s what they are trained to do. Look up ‘floxies’ or ‘floxxed’… there are a lot of people who have to go to real doctors to get help and pay out of pocket… thousands to tens of thousands of dollars … ypur insurance and your doctor will destroy your health and are powerless to help you… but once you are on hospice, you can have all the morphine you want. I’m 53 and I’ve dealt with many doctors for myself, my children and my parents and I used to write articles and interview people… the allopathic doctors and their pharma products are dangerous. I no longer carry health insurance… just accident insurance.

    If any of you are post-menopause, please don't accept this as a default diagnosis for why you are losing your hair. My primary and my dermatologist would not help me look for reasons why I was losing my hair. The recommended treatment, minoxidil, gave me a headache. I went out on my own to research my hair issues. Rosemary essential oil, the Ordinary hair serum, castor oil hair masking and changing my eating habits has helped. My hair is not what it was, but I'm no longer losing chunks of hair and have had a significant amount of regrowth over the past 2 years.

    • @amperage8032

      This sounds like me. While I haven’t asked my doctor about it I’ve taken it into my own hands too. I felt like I had bigger medical (hormonal) issues to discuss and wanted to be taken seriously. I may still bring it up in the future. While all of us in this thread realize the impact of hair loss, not all do. The amount of information I’ve read is vast. I have wondered about spironolactone but I’m not sure how that plays into a menopausal person. It’s different when your body is producing enough hormones that to block some would help, but things are different now. I’ve gone the holistic route also. I spray my hair daily with rosemary water and oil it twice a week (prior to shampooing). I take vitamins and am strict with my diet. Sleep is a priority now too. I was severely affected by poor sleep over the last decade and I think that took a toll. Menopause affects everyone differently but I was definitely affected by it so it think my hair loss is attributed to it. The timing is obvious too. Now, how much is normal aging vs hormones, I don’t know. I’m putting up a fight with my hair. I’ve read studies on the impact of menopause on people and I’m a very positive, encouraging person and I would like to stay that way. Hair loss can affect ones self esteem and I don’t want to go down that rabbit hole any further. I’m happy you have found a way through this, sounds like ours are very similar 💗😊🌸

      My gyn put me on spironilactone, luckily. It and essential oils like rosemary, lavender and especially emu oil have helped me immensely! It took time though. I also take biotin and I'm on marine collagen too. Lastly, I am on HRT, estrogen & progesterone for my post menopause symptoms.

    • @annoymousme722
      @annoymousme722 Před rokem +27

      FYI for everyone taking Biotin. A lot of doctors don't know this, but Biotin can give false readings on blood tests. To have an accurate blood test, you should stop taking all Biotin at least a week before any blood tests. I had been taking Biotin for years and none of my doctors informed me about this. I was referred to an Endocrinologist a couple years ago and he told me that they are learning that Biting can not only affect the blood test results of your thyroid, but also heart tests and other tests as well. He said they are learning more all the time how it is affecting bloodwork for various blood tests. He said just to be safe, he would recommend to stop taking it at least a week for any bloodwork being done. He is a great Endocrinologist. He was the only doctor that was able to diagnose me with a serious life threatening problem I had for years, but no one was able to figure out what it was. I went to at least 13 different specialists, of all kinds.
      Also, if you have fast dramatic weight loss, it can also cause hair loss. That usually is only temporary and will eventually grow back. Just make sure you are eating healthy, getting enough protein and taking good vitamins.
      Spironolactone is also helpful. My doctor put me on a low dosage for hair loss.
      Make sure your shampoo and conditioner does not contain sulfate, paraben, they are really bad for your hair.
      Also Thyroid imbalance and low iron can also cause hair loss. This is why you really need to see a doctor and get tests done. Make an appointment with a good endocrinologist. Checkout their reviews. I saw 4 different ones before I saw this one. He had just moved to my area and his office had only been open for 2 weeks. So I was able to get in to see him right away. Most can take months to get an appointment.
      Good luck everyone! ❤️❤️❤️

    After pregnancy, I observed my hair fall but I remained calm. I took action to remedy it. I chose a health-centered approach.
    I took care of my nutrition, eating nutrient-rich foods, specially those high in Folic Acid and Protein.
    I exercised daily and practiced yoga for stress management.
    I just stayed away from styles that pull on my hair and quit using heated styling tools to minimise hair damage.
    I also started using LittleExtrra Coconion hair oil and shampoo combined with a wooden neem comb.
    The result was hair fall control and the recovery of my confidence.

    • @realitytvtherapy
      @realitytvtherapy Před měsícem +1

      Hair loss after pregnancy is caused by telogen effluvium, which is quite different from androgenetic alopecia. Not to suggest it's any less disturbing, but TE usually is a stress response after one's hair increases in thickness in the androgen phase. It's usually temporary versus progressive.

    I spoke with my doctor and basically got a shrug and “it can happen”. He never looked at my scalp or ran any tests. Unfortunately, I have seen other non-caring docs and didn’t go to someone else, as I should have. You have motivated me. I at least need to be checked for underlying conditions as I start this journey. I think I’ll look for a female doctor, who might understand. I’ll talk to a nutritionist instead of my doc about nutrition. Most docs don’t know a whole lot about nutrition.

      You should look for an endocrinologist female dr. The endocrine diseases are going rampant 🥲🥲🥲 You should test your iron level too and have a complete hemogram because anemia indeed can cause hairloss too 🥲 as can severe nutritional deficiencies. Edit : i would also test for lupus and autoimmune disease in which case you would need to see someone with competence in immunology. In my country all the analysis i need for my pcos cost me almost 600 ron which is like 135 bucks. I actually need to test my thyroid because owo nuclear threat from Russia and to see if i am eligible to take the KI pills in case of nuclear accident. I am not yet 40 yo but i have endocrine disease and now occasionally high blood pressure high pulse ive been given plant meds and metoprolol but i guess thyroid checking is a must either way.

It takes a lot of guts to talk about this, especially since there are bound to be people who think the treatments you do are excessive or unnecessary, but their opinions aren't the ones that matter. We all have something that we're willing to go to what seem like crazy lengths for, but in the end it's your body, your money, and your happiness! Thank you again for sharing your experience!🖤🖤🖤

My mom also had fast thinning hair and even though she passed in 2017 you helped me realize that it may have been more then just thin hair like most made her feel like. Also talking about your journey helped open my eyes to what its like for someone with alopecia. Fingers crossed your journey stays on a positive track

    The time I faced hair fall, I followed all these to effectively control it:
    Include massage for your scalp into your routine.
    Avoid hot water when washing your hair.
    Protect your hair from excessive sweat.
    Use a wide tooth neem comb to brush out wet hair.
    Reduce your sugar and junk food intake.
    Use gentle hairfall control shampoo and oil like littleeextra coccconion.
    Nurture a positive mindset for general well being.

    I cannot express how happy I am that you came forward with this. In my family, on my mother's side, my grandmother, mom and aunt (mom's sister) all had extremely thin hair. When my mother passed away recently, I asked the funeral home for a lock of her hair. When he game it to me he told me he couldn't get much because my mother's hair was so thin. I've been so worried that there is something genetic, like genetic Alopecia or a thyroid issue (those also run in the family. Hurrah for my genetics. Sarcasm) anyway, you've encouraged me to open up and see my doctor as well. Thank you so very much and I will say, your hair looks amazing. You're doing what's best for you and don't feel bad or apologize for anything you're choosing to do. Thank you so much for opening up about this. That alone is huge and helpful to SO many people.

Hair loss is often a side effect of medications, and it's not something that's really spoken about. Sure, now we have to feel like crap and lose part of who we are on the outside too.
    I have recently picked up on the whole castor oil thing - I found a decent inexpensive brand that has castor oil shampoo - but I didn't know about rosemary oil. I think I'm going to give it a shot, along with the dry brushing!! I have one of those silicone scrubber things that look painful but are actually super amazing, for in the shower!

    Thank you for sharing this. I know how devastating hair loss is, especially for women. I sadly also have androgenic alopecia. I noticed a very thin area in the front of my hair almost 2 years ago and my overall hair was A LOT thinner. I went to a dermatologist and am still being treated but things aren’t getting better. I wanna cry whenever I see my reflection. So many people dismissed my feelings in the beginning saying things like “O you can’t even notice it” which you definitely can or “it’s just hair” and basically making me feel vain for being upset about it. I totally understand the throw everything and the kitchen sink at it approach and being willing to pay any amount to try to stop the hair loss. I asked my dermatologist about PRP injections but she said she didn’t think it would help with my hair loss which after the prices you quoted I’m kinda glad cause I would have paid them and just never ate or something to pay for them. I have several mental and physical health issues besides the hair loss but the hair loss has been the total gut punch. I’ve always had very long, beautiful hair, I was always complimented on it, it was what I was known for and literally the only thing I liked about myself. There’s so much stigma around women’s hair loss so again thank you for sharing your story.

    • @ImThatSassyChic

      This is me as well. Androgenic alopecia and on top of that I had a bad iron deficiency that I wasnt aware of for likely years and I'm post menopausal from having to have a hysterectomy at the age of 30. Literally everything that can contribute to worsening hair loss has been my issue. I also tried both topical and oral minoxidil as well as a custom compounded topical version from my dermatologist. I'm also on Dutasteride and Spironolactone. My hair loss has slowed but not really improved. Many dermatologist said at this point the goal is to try and prevent additional loss, not expect more hair growth. And that has come from 2 dermatologists I've seen. My hair loss is mostly on the top of my head so theres really no concealing it. I have done root sprays and fiber powder over the years but for me at this point I have resorted to wearing wigs. I may try more scalp stimulation just in desperation to hold onto what little hair I have left. It has greatly impacted my self esteem and confidence too. Know you're not alone. ❤

      I LOVE The Ordinary products. I've only tried the facial products and had no idea that they made products for hair. Can't wait to try it.
