Wash Day While Recovering from Thinning

[@rachaelbrooks4190]

That strand product testing tip is golden! The amount of setback videos I’ve seen because of a new product causing matting is crazy.

[@cockyretrospect4085]

Yes, I'm truly concerned, but really goes to show you can't just put any product on your hair, not everything is really for everyone

[@arianalashayslader]

Such good advice!!❤

[@hannaisrl3707]

👀 Sis, why you talking smack about me? Lol 😂🤣🤣🤣

[@NiKKey411]

Right. I take my shed hair bundles and make those my product testers. Sounds odd but I carry a lil bundle of my own hair and test it IRL cause somethimes I can save myself a return trip.

[@AltraTara]

How I just love watching these long ass black women’s hair wash days! I feel like you’re the survivors of the natural hair movement and the results are glorious❤ I’m at the beginning of my journey (1 year post BC) and I can’t wait to have my arms ache because of washday!

[@TheAymoneShow]

You will!

[@Notagain44]

I'm so happy to see you back! I was just looking at some of your vids last week wondering if you'd ever come back. I'm experiencing thinning/shedding too and I was not expecting it after taking such good care of my hair. I'm now in recovery.

[@cockyretrospect4085]

I'm so sorry to hear that! Yea, there are like so many people that have experienced shedding like all at the same time, it's literally so weird. But you're not alone, in this together, it'll grow back ❤️❤️🤗

[@jojouche]

I’ve experienced thinning too. One thing I’ve noticed was that I was deficient in many things. When I started being more conscious of what I was putting into my body and taking my vitamins and minerals I noticed a big change! Maybe you are deficient in vitamins and minerals too?

[@cockyretrospect4085]

I sure was! But I'm putting in the work, hope you get back to optimal levels as well ❤️❤️

I’ve been using the same shampoo for literally 10 years. From waist length loose natural hair to waist length locs. This is my OG

[@Keesha]

Here’s a quick hack to help unravel the tangled ends when you’ve had braids or twists for a bit… dab a bit of good ol’ Shea butter onto your fingertips and coat your ends… then unravel. I’ve used this to even comb out dreads… just coat them with the Shea butter and finger detangle…pull them out strand by strand.

[@KH-wx4sj]

May I suggest doing more self care (stretching & meditation). Thinning is likely hormonal & can be reversed unless it’s due to an illness. Increase your protein intake & drink more green tea. My stress area starts going haywire when I’m overly stressed & allowing outside influences to effect me within. I had to learn to stop giving that energy. When I do the work within, it makes such a difference. Blessings & Energy

[@cockyretrospect4085]

Thank you so much for the suggestions, and I agree, stress, hormones and underlying health issues all contribute to thinning. Doing all I can to do the inner work, stress-wise and health-wise. Love a good stretch and meditation! Thank you again ❤️❤️

[@Sriver14]

I heard AMLA is an good ingredient to include fuse in your oil. It helps to thicken the hair and increase follicles on your head. So more hair strands and thicker, stronger strands. Maybe you could try that. Curly Proverbz talks alors about that and Henna.

[@cockyretrospect4085]

Yes I've tried Amla, not long enough to see a difference but definitely doesn't hurt to give it another shot. Love Curly Proverbs! Yea, I love how she promotes ayurvedic treatments

[@Sriver14]

@@cockyretrospect4085I'm in the same boat. Have thinning hair but my routine is not consistent enough to see results. I need to discipline myself.

[@j4nglle]

@@cockyretrospect4085 I've used the oil consistently for about 6-12 months in the past and I noticed that it made my hair thicker for sure. I wasn't very good at retaining my length, though because I was rough with my hair but it's definitely a very stimulating oil. I would always feel that tingling sensation (like peppermint does) and would have decent undergrowth in my braids after a few weeks.

You can still use the oil for your hot oil treatments, you’ll probably want to avoid your scalp, just in case. The oils probably oxidised or went rancid. They will still function as a prepoo eventhough the smell is a bit iffy.

The redken all soft line is awesome .

I admire your dedication to your glorious hair, don't worry about the thinning, you look great

[@asthe.SunShines]

Some advice from my experience with dealing with thinning and hair loss and scalp hair. It could be the coconut oil it does clog your pores because it is a heavy oil. I had thinning from that and noticed that I shouldn’t use coconut oil anymore so I buy everything that goes on my body without coconut oil as an ingredient. There is an app called think dirty I’ve used for years to find clean products because I’ve had hair loss and my body break out due to shampoos and conditioners because they contain harmful chemicals. A strand test on your hair is cool but those products soak into your skin also. Just be mindful 😊

[@EVELYNE-ELIANA]

I have to agree, coconut oil causes hair loss for me too
