Sorry, to hear this.
I agree with the suggestions by "Smiling E.'" - scalp massages.
Also, look into your diet to ensure that you are receiving the right nutrients for your hair and scalp, or you can look into supplementing hair vitamins for to encourage thickness.
Stress can cause hair shedding as well.
I hope that you are able to figure out the issue, and continue to progress.


Ladies, I have braided my hair - so I will not be able to post an update today. But I will go through my recent photos and see if I have any "hair shots" to pass... for now :perplexed. My hair is pretty much the same length (right at hip), because I have been trimming for thickness. Also, I have continued trimming in a V-shape.

I began to grow frustrated, and decided to braid my hair to give myself a break. Lots of my energy has gone to worrying about my hair, so I thought it would be a good way to give my mind a rest from my hair.
Since our last update I have gotten a Maxiglide - LOVE IT! I have also discovered that my hair loves virgin coconut oil, and will be adding this to my wash and go "braid out" Reggie. Past that, I have very little to "update".
I am excited to see everyone's progress, and will be posting a pic hopefully in a day or two.

Happy Growing!

thanks for all the tips guys... actually i think i may have found the culprit. its one of 2 things and i'm stopping both asap.

the 1st was that i stopped finger combing hair. i really have not been as gentle to my hair as i should me and i'm sure that's got to account for thinness.

the 2nd... *sigh* the pj got the best of me again and you would think i would learn my lesson BUT THIS TIME I FOR SURE WILL NOT TRY ANY THING NEW!!!!

see what had happened was....

i purchased some castile soap like forever ago thinking i would make my own shampoo. that was a dud right of the bat cause it was too runny. so i thought i would make a magic mix for a body wash... also a dud lmfao.... so then as a last resort to not "waste" a prod i thought to my self

"self... now we know we dont like to waste things, and there's just a little bit of this stuff left... what shall i do with it? oh i know self!!! we can dilute some of our really thick aussie moist poo (as i would like the poo to be a tad less thick) and wash with that!"

so i dumped the rest of the castile (peppermint) soap into my shampoo bottle and have been washing with that every week.

now could it be the culprit? hell if i know, but i will cut it out to attempt to get my thickness back!!!!



oh yeah. i put rollers in my hair tonite and i'm under the dryer as i type... so as long as my hair cooperates i will be doing a length check either tomorrow or on the weekend :)

Your hair looks great and....I just KNOW that wasn't a proof picture!!!
 
lol yes it is a proof pic... i wont name names of course but i had gotten a little pm when i did my last update and uh... well yeah. i chose not to respond because i thought it was childish but i figured that since they are obviously in these threads a lot, i'd post s little something for them :D lmao

Some people are simply moronic. You regularly post length checks, wet hair pictures, etc. - all a person has to do is look at your pictorial history to see the obvious. But I love how your hair in the "proof pic" seems to be cursing at the fool, :lachen:.

That you even had to do that, woooooowwww! Why do folks act like you owe them anything? Like your hair journey is subject to their approval? Whateva! *3 snaps in "z" formation". :grin:

Gotta say I'm glad for the proof shot because it really shows the texture of your hair and alls I gots ta say is :drool: That's some hair porn fo ya. :lick:

Looking good, girl!
 
lmfao i love you guys... yall always make me smile. AND TODAY IS MY BIRTHDAY!!! yay! lol so that just adds to it

in all honesty i dont know what the chicks deal was. i think i accidental stepped on her toes in another thread and just came with some nonsense.

all i know is that she's never posted in the the threads i usually hang in but she must lurk (either the wl, hl, or cl) because she had specifics to say lol

Happy Hair Growing!
 
MOMO!!!!!
Girl, happy birthday.
I apologize on behalf of your mother for not birthing you a wee bit earlier so you could be a VIRGO. :)

And your hair looks luscious as HECK!!!!

I'm mad you posted a proof photo don't EVER let me catch you doing that ish again. Let fools stay foolish. You owe nothing to them.
 
Oh and girls, HI!!!! :waving:

Sorry I've been away, been planning an elopement and jobhunting and just been kinda crazy.

I straightened my hair tonight, I will take photos in the morning.

Gunna get a trim tomorrow, so I will take photos after that too.

It feels longer but I don't know to what extent. Maybe 1/2 inch to an inch past waist? I dunno.

(PS yes i straightened my hair on my own for the trim, i'm not risking my stylist giving me heat damage again, but i dont trust anyone else with scissors near my hair.)

Pics tomorrow i promise.
 
Very pretty, I do see some progress, your hair has grown ALOT in the last months, now it looks like it's thickening up at this newer length, you'll have a growth spurt very soon.

Oh in the last pic when you parted your hair, I would have have put 1 of my fingers on each hand up, :rolleyes: I mean there's no weave that good that it can't be detected, we all can see it's really your hair, I mean really they went there. :nono:
