wrapping hair= edges leaving me???

[c*c*chic*]

I need help ladies!!! For the last two days, the front,right part of my edges -above the end of my eye brow - that area of skin was really hurting. I look in the mirror today and I have a (gulp) bald spot. I thought to myself (In my dwight voice) "how dreadful." I thought maybe I was wrapping my hair too tight but I'm still doing the same thing I've been doing for a few years and I've never had this problem. I tried switching the direction I wrap my hair but it came out looking a fool. Do you ladies have any tips or products I should use to fill my edges in that one area back in? Tysm.

This is the reason why I stopped wrapping my hair. My left side suffered. It was thin and started breaking off bad.

I recently started rubbing castor oil mixed with rosmary oil in the thin spots. Its too early to notice any results.

Thankyou guys! I'm going to try that cross wrap 2nite and c how my hair turns out. 2morrow is wash day so it really won't matter. Does any1 knows of any products I can use in the mean time for the thinning area?

My edges are thinning too, but not because of wrapping. It's due to post-pregnancy hair loss. However, I'm using Phyto vitamins. Lots of people on this board swear by them.

You can try castor oil and/oror aloe vera gel/juice for your edges. Gelatin, silica, fo-ti and biotin are a few vitamins that help with growth.

Or you can use a growth aid like Lenzi's Request, Bee Mine, Boundless Tresses or Mega Tek

My sister and I were just talking about it, alter your wrap direction and try some Alter Ego Cren Good Luck!

I had no idea that wrapping hair had bad affects on the edges. That's scary.
