PP hair loss

I am going to be 5 months pp next Sunday & the last month or so I have had an excessive amount of hair loss & hair shedding on top of excessive dandruff. Any hair product recommendations y’all have? I am thinking abt going to a hair spa & getting a hair scalp spa treatment on it. My hair has always been thick & smooth & I used to have very long hair. It’s all thinning & it is lowkey traumatizing when I had the most precious hair. will take any advice

I have been having the same. Here for answers too.

Im not sure if his will help everyone but I have been messaging coconut hair oil in my hair everyday and I used to have long hair but cut it short and now it feels way healthier and not as dead. My pp hair loss would be by the fistful every day so this is the only thing that helped me

Rosemary oil on scalp

i haven’t experienced any hair loss and i cant say for sure but i kept taking prenatal vitamins after giving birth and still take them so i think the vitamins have been helping me

Are you on BC? I just found out that the mini pill I’m on causes hair loss and I’m going to reach out to my OB and see if I can get something else. The hair loss is so severe I’m surprised I’m not balding but I did hear rosemary oil helps and collagen but not sure if you are BF as I’m not sure if it’s safe to take while BF

The Anya scalp serum is the only thing that’s worked for me. I’ve stayed on my prenatal both postpartum periods and it never worked.

@Bree I am not on any type of birth control & yes I exclusively BF

@Hokulani gotcha. I also ran this through one of my OB friends and she said the first year is bad but it will definitely get better. So I hope that’s reassuring but you’re not alone.

I ended up just cutting my hair short, not sure whether to start using my partners Monoxidil
