Anybody lose just a little hair?

I am seeing more and more hair when I wash my hair or run my fingers through it. I don't see big clumps of hair but it is still noticeable.

I am just wondering if this means I should just face the fact that I am going to be one of the ones who has problems with hairloss, or can you have just a slight hair loss?

I started with a little hair loss at 4 months. By 5.5 - 6 months, I was loosing a lot. So much that my scalp burns being out in the sun, and my part is noticible. I started taking Protein supplements, and 3 weeks after, I've noticed a dramatic decrease in the hair loss.

I never lost clumps, but I thinned out a lot, as most people report. When I wash and dry my hair, I would have hair in the tub, hair in my brush, on the floor and over my clothes when drying. Each time would make a nice nest for some bird!

In order to keep fullness in my thin hair, I use a good volumnizer.

I believe the protein supplements really have helped (I just posted a new thread about what is the best way to incorporate these into my diet without jepordizing my weight loss).

Try not to let this get you down, and stay focused on your goal of weight loss. It is temporary and adding protein does help!

I'm at 5 1/2 months out. I've been losing very small amounts of hair. Certainly not clumps. But it has been noticeable to me. But I don't expect it will get worse and I know it is not noticeable to anyone but me.

I got tons of protein, and took biotin, zinc and anything else anyone told me to try. I used the Nixosin shampoo and still lost over half my hair. It sucks, but it's growing back in!
