Hair Loss & Replacement Blog

Okay in July I colored my hair blond did it myself. And it looked horrible! I went into a salon and had a color correction done. Ever since then my hair has been breaking off. Not HUGE clumps. You can’t look at my head of hair and notice any bald spots or anything. I went to the beauty salon about 2 weeks ago now and got about 2inches cut off the length and got tons of layers in my hair. The Stylist said my hair wasn’t damaged. (I was going to chop it off to my chin) She said keeping my hair up in a tight ponytail (which I do) is probably the problem. Which I know isn’t 100% true in my situation b/c my hair has only started breaking off this bad since my color incident. I bought some Pantene Restoration (i think is the name) shampoo/conditioner and hair mask. And gave myself a couple deep condition treatments. My hair still breaks off maybe not as much. Okay…I noticed today that my hair is just still coming out a lot!!! Not from the root or anything. I hot rolled my hair 2 days ago and all day yesterday had my hair up on my head in like a ball just to keep it out of my way. I think using all the hair spray and keeping it in a wad on my head caused the extra breakage..I know stupid on my behalf.What should I do?? Should I cut it all off to about my chin?? Is there anyway to keep my long locs and restore the health to my hair????
Any advice would be beneficial.

Btw…my hair length hits the bottom of my bra strap. And I have short to med. layers throughout hair
One more question. Has anyone had their hair over processed like mine and their hair break off this much? Like I said it’s not clumps of hair..but enough to drive me crazy! Thanks!!!

I have medium thick hair, but if I put it in a ponytail it crimps really bad and pin-curls= Shirley Temple. How do you get that Mira Sorvino-in-the-Replacement-Killers volume?

i’m 31 years old and have 3 good sized bald spots on my head, and the rest of it is very thin. my ponytail now is the size of one of my pigtails 10 years ago. i was tested and was found to have a significant vitamin d deficiency. where levels are generally 50-80, mine is 17. i am taking 50,000 units twice a week as prescribed by my doctor and will be tested again in a few months. my question is this: once my vitamin d is balanced out, will the hair grow back?

The general doctor I saw a while back said it was no big deal. I can pick up all my hair into a ponytail with a tiny little clip and I’m 25. That’s a big deal! Even my hairstyling said my line is thinning too much.
It falls in clumps especially after showering and during the day i shed everywhere. I already use nutri-ox and have upped my calcium intake. What the heck should i do???

I straighthen my hair alot and leave it curly sometimes on the weekends.But i notice lately a little bit of my hair is falling out.Sometimes when i run my hand through my hair some hair falls off. And i notice when i were a ponytail with my hair straight some hair is left on the pony tail?
Am i losing my hair .
Im a bit too young to loose my hair.Or is it just breakage.Can somebody help.
Or at least tell me a good heatprotecter and anti breakage hair product.Or good working home remedies.
