Not baby related as such just desperately needing advicešŸ«¶šŸ¼

Iā€™m 4 and a half months postpartum and the last week Iā€™ve been so unhappy with my hair and itā€™s just making me so sad, it falls out when I touch it, wash it! I have extremely bad dandruff making it look horrible and dirtyšŸ˜­ my hair on top is shorter than my actual hair and itā€™s just all frizzyšŸ˜© I could cry honestly so unhappy:( will dying it help or make the situation worse?

I feel the exact same! And around the same postpartum I am petrified of washing my hair and feel so gross not washing it! My scalp is so dry, my hair is dry and it just falls out! šŸ˜­ i wanted to dye mine but have a feeling itā€™ll just break off so im holding off for a while as i donā€™t want it to break off! I literally just plait my hair and leave it alone brush it in the morning and before bed! Sounds real gross but I havenā€™t washed my hair in forever because Iā€™m petrified of how much will come out as I lose so much already! X

@Leonna mines the exact samešŸ˜­ what shampoo and conditioner do you use? I used to love my hair so much and recently Iā€™m just hating it, makes me wanna cry everytime I look in the mirroršŸ˜© my hair on top is just so much shorted than my actual hair and I just donā€™t understand whyšŸ˜­

Have you got some vitamins? The hair burst ones are really good! Iā€™ve found they helped me! Itā€™s awful! I feel for you! But personally wouldnā€™t dye it. Iā€™ve been using hair masks & slicking my hair back & try the Nina bell hair brush (can get on Amazon) - doesnā€™t pull on your hair! X

Someone I know was losing what felt like a lot of hair PP so she had her iron levels checked by the doctor x

Mine has become a nightmare too! Iā€™m finding it all around the house and itā€™s constantly getting on the baby - im always checking her hands for my hair lol! Iā€™m just letting it be as I think some hair loss is normal, but you could try some of the hair loss vitamins and hair masks if itā€™s getting you down. X

To add, try a silk or satin pillow case and bonnet for bed, Iā€™ve used them for years as Iā€™ve got curls and they really make a difference!

Mines falling out when wet and when I brush it when itā€™s wet but when dry it doesnt come out as much.
