My Favorite Hair Loss Treatment - Recovered from DevaCurl Hair Loss and Damage

Before anyone even brings it up, allow me to explain what happens to hair during pregnancy, because of course I considered that impact before claiming the Vivifying Remedy Spray has helped my hair loss.
Pregnancy hormones keep hair follicles in the growth stage for longer. This results in a great rate of increase in length of hair but NOT an increase in active hair follicles.
There is no scientific evidence that pregnancy causes inactive follicles to start producing hair once they have stopped producing hair.
As I mentioned, I will keep you all updated on my hair journey after I give birth (due date 9/28).

Do you think it could work on hair loss caused by menopause? That's a natural cause, so can we do something about it? Postpartum hair loss is reversible, you gradually go back to normal, but I feel menopause could be different. Any thoughts?

[@StephanieMero]

I see no reason why it wouldn’t help. The hair loss patterns that were created by the DevaCurl products resemble hormonal hair loss - most notably postpartum hair loss in women but some women lost hair in the areas that are associated with male hair loss. I can tell you why, but you have to first trust my theory that what happened with DevaCurl is a result of the plastic bottles leaching chemicals into the product. The chemicals that leach from plastic are endocrine-disrupting chemicals. These chemicals mimic hormones - which is what caused the body to behave in ways that resemble a dramatic change in hormones without blood tests resulting in a drastic hormone fluctuation (the kind that would happen after birth or at the onset of menopause). This is why I believe that if the Vivifying Remedy Spray can aid so quickly in the recovery of DevaCurl hair loss, it can help with menopausal or postpartum hair loss as well. The added kicker for DevaCurl victims is that the chemicals that caused this hair loss reaction also break down the natural protective barrier of the scalp. This is what causes the hypersensitivity that makes using a product like Densifying Remedy or Microstimulating Hair Bath, which aren’t formulated for sensitive scalps, uncomfortable for some or can even cause a mild adverse reaction like bumps. The scalp that has been chemically-damaged is not healthy and so it needs special care. I hope this helps you understand my thought process and beliefs. ❤️

[@StephanieMero]

I will add that since the hormone change with menopause is, as you described, more permanent than postpartum - I would assume that you would want to continue using it for as long as you want to maintain the density increase or it could dip again. Whereas, with postpartum or in my situation, chemically-induced hormone mimicking, I would believe that discontinuing use once the hair density goal is achieved would not result in any reversal unless there are still hair loss triggers present.

[@carob3323]

Thank you Stephanie for sharing all this. It certainly seems worth a try! These products aren't cheap, so I hesitated investing in them without knowing if they had a chance to do anything against a natural process. But your theory makes a lot of sense! As you point out, I'd probably have to keep using it on the long term. How many bottles have you gone through so far? I imagine I'd mainly cover my hairline too, that's where my density seems most affected.

[@StephanieMero]

When I was using it daily I went through one in about a month but now one lasts me about 4-5 months using it only once a week.

[@LivingInTheShade]

Your hair is looking lovely.

[@StephanieMero]

Thank you! 💕

[@claiyageil]

Omg your hair looks to beautiful! I'm so glad it looks like it used too! I still have just a bit of Devacurl damage left but it's way better. Thank you for helping people.

[@StephanieMero]

You’re so welcome ❤️❤️ and thank you

[@dkayrotach]

Your hair is thick and healthy due to pregnancy. When I was pregnant my skin, hair and nails grew beautifully especially when I was pregnant with my sons. That’s what pregnancy does for most women. I loved being pregnant.

[@michellenyhus]

Your hair looks healthy and so shiny!

Thank you ❤️

[@rubyv7231]

Your hair looks amazing! I’ve been binge watching all your vids. 🙏

[@sheilah524]

Your hair looks stunning ❤️❤️❤️ I also suffered scalp damage and hair loss from Devacurl. This is giving me hope. Can’t wait to order this product. Thank you for your videos. You are very knowledgeable 💕

[@jeweld5668]

I’m so grateful I’ve found you Stephanie 💛You have taught me so much about my hair in the short amount of time since discovering you here on KZbin. I haven’t yet placed my 1st Oway order, as I had just ordered Curlsmith products prior to learning about Oway, but will do so just as soon as I can. Thank you for being the inspiration that you are and for sharing you with all of us 🦋 Love and Light ✌️

[@Dina8485]

Hey Steph Your hair is full & shining just like it used to be! I have stopped using OWay products in the last couple months because it was not moisturizing my hair properly. I still have some thin spots in the back of my head that were not there before the Devacurl damage, so maybe this product will be useful to me. Thank you for all your advice & for caring about this issue so much.

[@StephanieMero]

Ok! I’m sorry you couldn’t figure out the right ones for your hair and yes this product can be used by anyone no matter what other products they use, however, chemicals from other products could trigger hair loss or prevent an increase in density so make sure you’re still using clean ingredients and packaging (no plastic) ❤️ good luck!

[@antheakrieger3245]

Hi Stefanie, so happy for you dear, you look great and your hair looks amazing too!! Thank you so much for your honest advice always!! I started using the oway products and my hair texture changed immediately!! Could not believe, it was a wow moment for me, thank you so much!! will definitely continue using their products and watching your very informative videos!! Take care and have a wonderful day!!! 🙏🏼🤗😊♥️

[@yolandawinter2244]

Hi Stephanie, your hair is looking beautiful and so shiny, and full. I'm so glad you've had great results with Oway products, much deserved after the devacurl trauma. Thankfully, I never used devacurl, but I am experiencing some problems related to menopausal changes. My hair is much thinner than it used to be, duller, and not holding a curl too well. I'm in the UK and have had a bit of difficulty finding Oway products from authorised stockists, and have ended up ordering from a salon in Northern Ireland. I hope to have some beneficial results, so thanks for highlighting the various products within the range. Hope you're staying well as your pregnancy progresses, you're certainly looking blooming. Take care x

[@StephanieMero]

Hi Yolanda! Thank you for the message. I’m glad you avoided DevaCurl damage and I hope the products you ordered will help with recovery from menopausal hair loss. I have never been better - thank you so much. Same to you. 💕

Gonna try this soon. Been using oway shampoo and styling products but hair loss hasn’t changed much so it’s scary, but hair looks better. I’m excited to try 😌

[@nicolecrowie8226]

Hi Steph! your hair looks amazing! I've been using the stimulating hair bath since January and saw a little improvement with it, I then purchased the vivifying remedy treatment to see if it could speed up my recovery back in the April, and I have seen such an improvement in my density since then. I just wanted to say thank you for the content you put out! These products have saved my hair and I wouldn't have found them without your videos! I was also wondering if you still take spirulina and use the bentonite clay mask to detox? I was thinking of purchasing spirulina to detox as I've been paying a lot of attention to the content you've been posting about plastic toxicity, but I was wondering if you still use it.

[@StephanieMero]

Hi! No I don’t take any detox supplements anymore. Changing my lifestyle to no longer consume the toxins that hurt me - those that leach from plastic - helped me in a way that the supplements never did and I haven’t turned back and never will! Thank you!! I’m so glad you’re loving the products too.❤️

[@lindahughes583]

I’ve just used the micro stim bath both me & my husband. I’m pleased with the results but will have to add this to step it up a notch. I’m just glad I got my husband to stop using Pantene lol

[@MM-ps8xq]

Stephanie! You look awesome! I purchased $300 in OWAY products, but I only had the opportunity to use two of them because my head and hands burned and my hair was so dry and shriveled up. Do you have any other recommendations to heal the scalp? Thanks a million girl and congratulations on your pregnancy!

[@trishdlvluver9665]

Your curls and color look amazing!!

[@StephanieMero]

Thank you! The color I actually did with OWAY non ammonia permanent color (no bleach) back when my hair was only an inch long and now the result is just how it has grown out. I’m itching to do color because I love it but I’m prioritizing my hair health and getting my hair long and healthy for the first time ever. ❤️

Stephanie I purchased several products from oway and I didn't like one thing about it. I felt like it dried my hair out much like everything I use anymore.

[@lissettehall3275]

Do you have a recommendation about using the Microstimulating Hair Bath and the Vivifying Remedy Spray on the same day or would you suggest alternating the days we use them?

[@mdeen8391]

Use AmyGrow hair oil I have been using this for 3 months It's very effective for me

[@jazzautumn4806]

I used the densifying remedy for a few weeks and it has completed destroyed the texture of my hair. It literally smells like rubbing alcohol

I can’t find the Vivifying Remedy. Did they stop making it? If so, any other suggestions please.

I'm currently in this same situation. I'm recovering from diva curl damage & I'm thankful for the progress but my density isn't where it use to be & I need natural products that will assist safley.

Not at all compared to other professional hair loss treatments!

I’m scared to apply my vivifying spray when my hair is wet. My hair is super fragile when wet and breaks off near the scalp (typical male bald spot) where DevaCurl really affected my hair. Still effective if used dry?

Hey after having a chemical treatment from a salon. I'm facing obsene amount of hairloss. My hair were severly damaged. I have seen dermatologists. They are prescribing minoxidil. However, I'm looking for natural remedy. I can see hair growth after 4 months. But continues shedding is also there. It has triggered chronic talogen effluvium. Have you come accross anyone who faced this. Any suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks
