Hairfinity 2014 Challenge

Now I'm scared. Do you guys know what could be causing the thinning besides the pills? I'm going to Google this. Sorry about this.

I was trying to figure out what was causing my thinning, when someone else mentioned that they were having the same problem due to the pills. She saw ladies on youtube complaining about it too.

Don't be scared. I'm not entirely convinced that my ends are due to Hairfinity. My hair IS longer and (the majority) of the ends do not have splits on them. What I'm fighting against is OLD, keratin treated hair that I am snipping off bit by bit.

Also, the middle of my hair looks jagged because I have been growing my hair out from a horrible weave experience about 2-3 years ago where I was left clean bald from a celebrity (?) weaveologist.

I have bad heat damage too that's why I started taking them. I was getting my usual flat iron deal and a new shampoo girl was blow drying my hair and putting something on my hair (I shouldve asked what it was at that time). My hairdresser put that iron to my hair and my hair smelt burnt. Everytime I wash I can still smell it and that was last october. Ever since then my hair is straight. So I'm growing it out hoping by the end of the year it'll be long enough to cut it without it being too noticeable.

I am going to have to leave this challenge because the Hairfinity has started thinning out my ends and caused me to have a setback. I started taking Hairfinity in Sept 2013. After Nov., I started noticing thinning. My hair was doing so well! You can see the progress in the first pic. The second pic shows the extent to which it has thinned out. Now, I am going to have to cut off almost all of my progress. UGH!!! Good luck to all of you on your hhj & I hope you have better luck than I did with Hairfinity!

Aww I'm sorry this happened.
 
I have problems with thinning hair too but that's because of a keratin treatment I'm trying to grow out. I have major heat damage unfortunately.

Took my pills yesterday and today.
 
Still taking my pills. I haven't straightened my hair in years but I do rollerset weekly. Haven't noticed any damage or thinning of my hair.

I have upped my water intake from 80 oz per day to at least 120 oz. This has more to do with my new skin care/makeup obsession than Hairfinity, but I wanted to mention it.
 
I was going throughy phone and I came across a pic from February. My celies have came a long way. Pic on left is Feb 13. Pic on right is April 20. I dyed my hair Thanksgiving last year so to get an idea of my growth rate the first pic has 3 months of new growth.

I haven't been checking in but I'm still in this challenge and still taking my pills.:yep: I left my hair in senegalese twists longer than I planned since I have a few events lined up where it would be better to flat iron.:ohwell: So next week when I straighten I'll have a 2 1/2 months of growth (and hopefully retention:grin:)
 
I dropped out for now. May revisit later. Started getting bad headaches. increased water intake with little help. even cut down on twice a day to once a day. when i stopped taking them my headaches went away. smh
 
Hey ladies, I stopped taking my Hairfinity pills b/c they weren't doing much for my hair. I need to get my iron levels in check b/c my ferritin is low, I am taking 5000 mcg of Biotin, B-Complex and Iron Tablets. Hopefully I can start back in September
 
I stopped taking hairfinity after my last bottle ran out. Today is my first length check I will see if it was worth the money spent though. If so, maybe order another shipment

Thanks for letting us know TLC1020. I was wondering where my "check-in buddy" went lol.

I took my pills. I took advantage of the sale and ordered a 4 month supply on Monday and I received my package today. That was fast shipping.
 
There was a sale? I bought my hairfinity locally.

I started yesterday. I need to grow out the front part of my hair. Stat!
 
I went ahead and did a quick LC since I'm still applying my NJoy oil and inverting every month. Also still taking Hairfinity.

Thanks toaster but I don't think i'm retaining as well as I should be. Might go back to trimming monthly bc my hair is prone to splits.

I know the feeling. My hair growth has slowed down considerably and my hair is shedding again. :-(



Took my pills today..missed the previous 2 days though.
