My hair loss still hasn't stopped...im really concerned!


After having my bubs my hair loss has been crazy...i used to have really thick hair but now its all gone really thin...i went to the gp and had my bloods taken and they found nothing...surely i cant let it just fall out without doing something...i know a few of you ladies are going through a similar thing...any advice??

Hey hun,

I had this before I was pregnant & spoke to my hairdresser about it.. she said not to use hot water when washing your hair & just use cool.

Pain in the ass when in the shower but I noticed a difference straight away.

Sorry cant be any more help

Mine only seems to be stopping now after 7 months, so it will - don't worry! And it just feels thinner - no bald patches or anything x

I'm still loosing clumps of my hair, all i have to do is touch it and i get a handful of it. its 10 times worse when am in the bath or after I've brushed it and even my pillow has thousands on it when i wake up!

going to try washing it with cool water like miss melly G has suggested x

Mine falls out when I brush it or wash it too, it's a pain but I have really thick hair anyway so it hasn't made a difference yet.

ugh I'm having this problem too, its all over the place, my pillow, in the crib, on the changing table and this is so gross, in the food! DH was like uh.. I don't want to upset you but I just found a hair in the food! It comes out tons when I brush. All I can suggest is try using a gentle shampoo, maybe even a volumizing (sp?)one. I truly sympathize.
