I'm on week two of lo/no mani, bun-ing, MN and bootcamp..whew!
On alternating nights, I oil with my MN mix and the other nights I lightly oil with a coconut/shikakai oil mix. Last night I was oiling and about to baggy and as I was putting my hair in the bag, I glided out about 15 hair strands. Not pulled out because it seemed to me as if they were just hanging out because they were shed.
Now, my question is, while I know you are 'supposed' to loose between 20-40 hairs a day, is this shedding normal?
My thought was, if I'm not combing and I don't get any hair (well maybe 2 strands) in the morning when I smooth into a pony, this is just hair I would have normally shed and seen either in the morning or with my nightly wrap, right?
I know I'm full of questions, but I wanna understand what's happening every step of the way. I'm taking pictures and keeping track of my products and progress, so when I succeed at each milestone I can go back and help someone else.
To be a teacher I must first be a student.
I am like clay in the potters hand.
Thanks Ladies
