Me too! I thought it was just me. I restarted my phone twice. Then I uninstalled/reinstalled the app!

Problem for me too!

Ok I thought it was me!! I reinstalled the app and turned my phone off and on. I was having withdrawals also!!! Gotta talk to u gals :)

Omg! That is alot from only one shower! I am so hoping this wont happen tk me! I was telling my 18 year old daughter about this today and she said' date=' " why would u even have the surgery knowing that could happen??!!" She loves her hair- can you tell?? ;)

Hope it stops for you soo ! :([/quote']

I don't think my husband quiet believed me. I took pics and he was shocked. I also showed him later that night more that came out. I've stopped washing my hair often to try to prevent the extra loss. I haven't used heat such as a dryer or flat iron in a month and just walk around looking like medusa. As a fat girl my hair was my "beauty" feature. It's weird. It's betrayed me :)

I don't think I am losing hair yet. (Knock on wood!) But I have always been a "shedder" I leave hair everywhere.

I read that around 100 strands a day is normal. How much do you think you are losing?

I'm scared to even imagine how many. I'm sure it's more than the normal. I bought some Moroccan oil to put on my hair to get rid of the dry straw look. I've always had thicker hair but is thinning terrible at my hair line making it look awful! I'm on the point where I'm either gonna buy some clip ins or whack it all off. I've loved my hair til this last month or so. Idk it's weird how attached I am to something as simple as hair.

Here is a updated pic. Fixed my hair today and actually wearing some makeup. Meeting one of the old drs I use to work for and a friend for lunch. Rare fix up

Moment for me.
