How long did it take for your hair to return to normal? This is for all of the women who are currently shedding or pregnant.

Well, I have been pregnant. And mine started late. My son was 6 months old when it started, so about 6 months after that. I used motions CPR and that saved my life!!!!

Mine started when my daughter turned 2 mos old, she's 4 mos now & I'm still shedding. It is slowing down though. Unfortunately, garlic shampoo ddin't work for me.

Mine also started late - about 6/7 months after baby's birth and lasted about 4/5 months. Should have braided my hair!

I've had two babies and mine started like clockwork at the end of the 3rd month. I have a 3yr old and a 13month old and my temples are still growing in now (thanks to LHCF!) I lost all my hair at the hairline and my temples looked like a man when their hair starts to really recede. I think all the vitamins I am taking (biotin, msm, nioxin,etc) are helping, but it is slow moving. My hair grew back quicker after my first baby. Don't be discouraged though, it will grow back, it just takes time. HTH

Between 3 to 6 months.

I didn't do much different for my hair. During pregnancy my hair hardly shed at all, so it was much, much thicker than usual. I was sorry to see the extra thickness go, but it's totally normal. The hair has to shed at some point.
