5 July 2009 One Comment

i had a death in the family and was extremely stressed about 3 months ago just this last week or so i have been shedding hair like crazy. i know its stress related and my whole family and i have very thick hair but i just want to know how long to expect it to last and if there is anything i can do to limit, and promote new hai growth quicker.

im less stressed now, and trying to just be calm and relaxed as i know as long as the stress persisits so will my hair.

anyone experienced this? how long did it last for you? and how much percent of hair do you think you lost?

    I had the same . my grandma passed away and i was very close to her it was hard and i was stressed.

    my hair came out too i think i lost about half? it was bad.

    it took a long time for my hair to get better.
    i took vits like kelp yeast tablets to help hair growth i did scalp massages to help. and i did alot of hobbies like walking dancing. this helped me relax and take my mind of things helping me de stress

    hope this helps take care all the best
