Help with hair loss

Heeelllpppp all my life I’ve always gotten compliments on my hair, how long and thick it is. I know hairloss is something that is bound to happen but I’m losing so much. It’s EVERYWHERE and everytime I shower I just have a big clump that scares me, then another big clump after the shower when I comb.

I’ve been lazy on my vitamins so I’m sure that’s an #1 thing but I’m getting better on it and setting reminders for myself!

Would extra biotin help?

Hi! Yes unfortunately it is something we all deal with, but should get better after your 6 month mark. However, it is crucial you take your vitamins. Remember, we require twice as much vitamins as the normal person. It is crucial. Talk to you doctor. Get on a good medicine regimen. Good luck hope it gets better.

Unfortunately biotin did nothing for me.
I use hask argon oil. It comes in a vial. At walgreen. It wont stop the hair shed. It will help keep it healthy and growing out. The texture of my hair changed. This got my hair back to soft and shinny.

I was told you have to keep your protein up to not lose your hair.
