Basically around September last year to around Feb this year, I suffered from horrific hair loss (I am 18) and lost around half my hair. To this day, I haven’t been able to explain it but I’m assuming it was the stress of uni application , changing countries and pretty bad dandruff all hitting at the same time.... I also have PCOS but I don’t think that’s the reason since the hair thinning should have continued.
I struggled to accept I was losing hair until my mum said my scalp was visible when wet so I decided to do something about it and kept tight hairstyles to a minimum, stopped using heat and used coconut oil very regularly.
Around a month ago, without any warning, I noticed that the hair on my temples had begun to return and my parting was visibly a lot thinner. Whilst I haven’t felt any real difference in hair thickness, I am sure my hair has begun to grow back and in a few months will be fully restored once the regrowth gets to appropriate lengths.
Today my mum even said that when she was styling my hair, she could no longer see the scalp around my temples!! I am thrilled and proud of the progress I’ve made.
For anyone, especially females who are dealing with the issues of hair loss, feel free to ask because I know the pain of losing hair and the feeling of losing all hope and struggling to come to terms with it...
