@thekarlatobie: I lost over 135 lbs… but I also lost so much of my hair. 😞 I almost didn’t post this because honestly, it took A LOT for me to even feel comfortable sharing this side of my journey. And with my iron levels being low, my hair has been THROUGH IT. Y’all see the wigs, the sew-ins, the hairstyles… but THIS is what’s happening underneath it all. So today I said you know what? Let me show y’all what’s REALLY going on with my hair. We washing it, trying some products, and figuring out what the hell I’m gonna do next. 😂 Do I keep trying to restore my hair, or do I cut it all off and start fresh with a pixie? And girl, it’s such a weird feeling because I’m SO proud of how far I’ve come, but at the same time, I’m sitting here missing parts of the old me. Like nobody prepared me for THAT part. 🥺 Now I KNOW one of y’all has been through this before, so please come talk to me. If you’ve experienced hair loss after major weight loss, what actually helped you? And would you try to save it or do the big chop? 🤍 Today’s wash day essentials: @Redken + @AMIKA: 🫧

This happened to me too. You have to increase your protein intake and I would take Mary Ruth to thicken it up.

Girl come to the pixie side, it’s the best decision I ever made. I had the see thru broken hair too so grown n sexy I went. Your confidence will sky rocket even more. Now maintenance is once a week so be prepared for that. Your hair will grow like crazy but you’ll love it over here .

this is common with a big weight loss! get your blood work done. could be iron deficiency but better to know exactly what’s going on before taking random supplements.

It’s protein, you need at least 100 to 120 grams a day which is a lot. But, personally the people who are getting this much a day did not lose hair. ♥️

I went through the same thing. loreal Elvive serum helped slow the shedding. hair vitamins and minoxidil capsules helped a lot.

If you’re not attached to your hair you should cut it in a bob I think it’ll be cute

Get your labs and see what vitamins you are deficient in. Try the ordinary serum and go to a dermatologist they might prescribe minoxidil.

i lost weight rapidly because of some medical issues i was facing and lost so much hair. i also suggest mary ruth’s vitamins. I took the liquid iron and it made my hair so much better. I also cut mine and started locs.

I cut mine after I dropped 100 plus pounds and it grew back so fast! I think it was better to big chop.
