VENT

[Tracy]

My freaking hair is not growing. I know it's not growing because nothing else is growing either. Eyebrows aren't growing in as quickly as usual. Neither are my nails. I'm shaving my legs less.

I hate when my body goes on vacation like this.

Just

venting.

Maybe you'll experience a spurt in a few weeks. Your follicles are probably just resting up for their big performance.

 

[Tracy]

I hope so. Mother

I'm feeling very hostile about it....

(I have to relax in 3 weeks and I want this brand spanking new color to grow out at least a centimeter or so...)

Cussing at your hair follicles, too funny!

 

[Tracy]

Girl I barely get a 1/4 inch a MONTH when my hair IS growing...

I can't think of another place to put my curse word...so I'll just throw it in as punctuation.

 

[hotshot]

hey girl- once you stop thinking about it, it will come!

 

[bollyhair]

Let me say something on this topic. I was feeling the exact same way as you for A WHILE. Then I went on the Atkins diet one day, and around the same time, I started taking SHAKLEE's Liquid Vita-Lea because Shaklee's is supposed to be like the best vitamins (?) and the Vita-lea is a multi-vitamin (I prefer liquid forms of supplements if I can get it that way). Anyway, I was on ATKINS for about 6 weeks (I COULDN'T STOMACH ONE MORE PIECE OF BACON

) and then once I got off the diet,.....MY HAIR HAD GROWN LIKE CRAZY!!!! I am BY NO MEANS ENCOURAGING THAT NASTY DIET

, but I am definitely going to attribute all that MAJOR growth to either or both the extra protein in my diet (,....not one more piece of bacon

) or the Shaklee's multi-vitamins. We all know that not all vitamins are created equal (and I am not hawking this product either), but Shaklee's liquid vitamin is the bomb! So basically I think you should either up your vitamin intake or your protein intake. I GUESS I COULD'VE JUST SAID THAT IN THE 1ST PLACE, HUH?

@ Tracy cursing her hair out. Girl you betta stop before it decides to take an extended vacation

Having you been slacking on vitamins? If nothing else, take some biotin and MSM. MSM is supopse to extend the growth phase. You're probably in a resting phase right now.

 

[Tracy]

Thanks for the suggestions guys. No - my hair just does this. It's in a resting phase, and it usually goes into one in early Spring to the beginning of summer and then again sometime around Christmas. I've been on a million diets and my hair always does the same thing. I know what it's doing, and I know it'll move on to the next phase soon...it's just annoying, that's all...

And I just felt like cussing about it.

 

[Tracy]

Exactly Aqt....I WISH I could take MSM...but it puts my skin in a permanent prepubescentesque pimple phase - and if ya think I'm cussing now....

A watched pot never boils. I am sure you have other things in your life to concentrate on other than your hair.

 

[LABETT]

My hair seems to thrieve on protein I have been slacking lately with my protein shakes and veggies and my growth rate has slowed down.
I am going to take a vitamin break and detox then gear up for the summer.

Trace,

It is definitely the stress from Law school. Trust me. I am going through the same thing. My nails became brittle and just fell off. I can't hold down food like I used to... and my hair... well, let's keep this post positive.

After school is over this semester, I bet that we both will be back in the swing of things *insert hair toss*

[Tracy]

You know what happened... ok it could be my imagination - but I woke up this AM and I had a sliver of dark in between my scalp and my color all over my head!!!!

Apparently my hair responds to expletives!

 

[KinksnCurlz]

In that case

hair!
