  1. Hi, Im 14 weeks in and had a lot of hair loss. The protein shakes help, no perms and NO flat irons Im natural now too and taking 1000 IU once a day of biotin. Its working finally; just keep your hair well conditioned. I also agree with the comment about Dr. Miracle products or a little expensive Miss Jessie's products her products make natural hair look very nice and classy. :wub:
  2. Hi , I am always concerned about the same issue I am 14 weeks in and wonder still the same. I will say that it sounds like your doing great. In my first weeks I could only get one shake in and maybe 10oz of water. Hang in there when in doubt ask your doctor. blessings on your journey! Karatemom
  3. Hi if you are near a Sams stores there is a great whey protein you can mix it with your favorite fruit and a lot of ice. This might help and hang in there. I use lots of strawberries and 1/2 of a banana and its really good.
  4. Well God bless and you hang in there. I guess your procedure will come later.
