hair regrowth post i promised
I had lost most all my bodyhair 12 years ago.
Except my hair on head but it was definitely completely bald in the area directly above my ears and behind.. which fortuneatley i have waist lenght hair so it covered it up.
Anyhow at age 45 and with all the stresses i have been thru it continued to get thinner/ so i tried the minoxodil about 2 years ago.
it grew in hair/ but not in those palces above my ears.. andleft my hair stiff and the hair that grew in was stiff not really natural
and worse of all it grew hair along my chin / jawline underneath and on my neck on sides.
very not ladylike!!
I discontiued it and the hair fell out.
Recnetly after the detoxes i have done.. my hair has gotten thinner.. and so i naturally was tryign to find soemthign to help me at least keep what i had.
So i read thru the old posts and archives on the hairloss forums and found a few things i felt worth trying cause it did not involve much cost.
1 st was the msm and vit c/ that soem said had helpe dthem retain what they had and the ratio was 1part msm to 1/2 part vit c.
since i am veyr prudent i do not do the suggested high level doseages i have off and on (not evy er day) taken one 1000 mg msm gelcap with one tablet 500 mg vitamin c.
2 nd was someone suggested rosemary so i bought soem essential oil of rosemary (it is highly concentrated MUST be diluted) and put about 10 drops of it inmy bottel of shamppoo
plus about 3 drops oil of oregano and also about 1/4 tsp of jojoba oil)
3 rd i also started taking evening primrose gelcap/ only one once a daywith my dinner and red clover blossoms at same time.
4 th I ordered inositol/choline tablets and began taking one tab once a day.
it has been a full month now.. and i have 1/2
inch of dark hair very soft and slighly curly (natural feeling) growing all over .. esp in that area where it was compltely hairless above my ears it is a right fauna there now!!
*yeah*
and better yet.. no hair in places where i as a woman woudl not noramlly grow hair../ no neck hair no side of face/jawline etc..like the minoxodil does.
i am so glad i took before pictures and pulled my hair up when i first found this forum.. soem day iw ill post a pic of me (after ig et to target wt !! )vanity vanity *smile*
