Unfortunately, that IS normal. I can speak from personal experience, and also, I am a hairstylist. Anytime your hormone levels are altered, it affects your hair. That's why a lot of times after having a baby, a woman will lose a lot of hair. I'm hoping mine will go back to normal soon. In the meantime, I'm taking Hair, skin and nails supplements. You can get them from Walmart or a health store. Good luck :) Keep us posted!
