I'm about 2 months out! Things are great I'm loosing a good amount and finally starting to feel normal again...but I'm having a bit of problem with loosing ALOT of my hair! I mean its not like it look like in Balding in the front or anything it's just today I washed and conditioned my hair and began to detangle it and like clusters were comming out!! I have to admit I am kinda used to it due to stress and things like that but now since I won't be getting the proper nutrition I need to know what can I do to slow this down or prevent it. I heard the Biotin was good have any of you guys used it and have u noticed a change? Are there extra Vitamins I need to take or what's going on with this whole thing? Oh and by the way previously before I washed it today I had a weave in my hair for about 1 1/2 it was both a glue and sew in. It does pull my hair but never like this! I need help!!!!!!

I do the highest biotin I can find, garnier shampoo and conditioner called fall fight that has biotin in it and a spray by them with the same. I also make sure i get in all my required protein. I even do more than required. The better you are with the protein the better you will be with the hair loss.

Exactly. Protein is the key.

Am almost 2 months out too. I already have thin hair so I asked my doctor, and she said Biotin & zinc daily with the Vitamins. Just started today.

I get in 76 by late afternoon and that doesn't count what I get for dinner....I am soooo worried about hair that I make myself get my protein!

Just some advice from me, I was losing my hair really bad too. I still am and I am 6 months out. Use biotin. I take the pills I swallow and also the ones that disolve under the tongue. I also use the Garnier Fall Fight shampoo conditioner and also the spray. The most important part of it though is the protein. My doctor says to make sure to get 75+ grams of protein per day, I am staying close to 100grams. If you are doing all of this, then the hair loss should be minimal. There will be some, but not to the point of balding. Good luck with all of this. It is so sad to see your hair coming out. I cried. If you do all of the above you should be fine. It should slow down at about a year out. There are a lot of hormonal things going on right now. Once your body starts normalizing all this will go away. Hope this helps

I have not experience hair lost yet I just had my surgery on the eighth of October, but protien, biotin and or zinc is the key and to limit the amount of stress on your hair im a "Natural" so I hope that helps me I do alot of twist outs and things but nothing where my hair is "stressed" ya kno or tight also I think the key to black hair growth really is keeping it moisturized (the one thing I think we lack) and I not talking just products im talking WATER the best beverage for our body is also the best thing to go on our hair. Lol although most aint tryna hear getting they heads wet. Lol. One more thought I hear hair loss usually starts at about 3mos and ends at 6mos to a year, but jus keep up wit those vitamins and no stressful hair styles.

Christi---- Just noticed you are so close to onderland.... rooting for you girlie!!!
