HAIR FALLING OUT... EDGES SHEDDING... HELP!

[BabyShaq]

Help! My cousin is going through a hair crisis. Back in November, her stylist left her color on WAAYYY too long... twice as long as necessary. And now, her HAIR IS FALLING OUT! Her edges and neck area is ruined... It's falling out and breaking off.

Has anyone experienced this? What have you done to tame the damages? One stylist told her to just stop coloring her hair... the other told her to now relax for a while- until it grows back?

Eek! Any suggestions anyone?! I would like to create a solid, easy to manage regimen for her. She already washes it weekly and wraps it to air dry... and suggestions on deep conditioners,etc.


Help!

My edges and nape was breaking off, thinning, shedding, you name it. It wasn't due to color but over relaxing my hair and not giving it enough moisture. I would tell your friend to lay off the color AND relaxers for a looong time. Give those areas plenty of moisture, TLC, and time to recooperate. You could recommend to her surge, mtg and all those growth products. They didn't work for me, but I use S-CURL on my edges and nape and it is filling in nicely. Sorry but I don't have any recommendations for deep conditioners. I use left over oils and drench my hair in them, cover with a plastic cap and clean up for an hour then rinse out for my deep conditioning.
