Balding?!?!

By: Aviyah

I’ve felt my hair was thinning for a while now, nothing too noticeable but the from of my hair was a tad thin…. So I bag an going hard on my natural hair journey. Really cutting down on weaves and heat.

I’ve been doing great! Used Rogaine on and off but didn’t want to get dependent upon it. So I began using essential oils and and organic root stimulator products.

But yesterday I took out a protective style (French braids under my wig I wear for work) and today I noticed what appears to be balding areas. Now that part of my hair was sore for a while and I’ve been trying to keep it conditioned and leave it alone. But I feel I’m failing!

So tonight I did the ORS scalp scrub… Washed with my ovation hair therapy and put on the cell therapy and covered my hair with a plastic cap.  After rinsing, I used the eryilizing temple balm and put my olive/coconut essential oil mixture on my whole head (and prayed)…. Lol

So this begins my true journey at trying to combat this crazy hair loss. The rest of my hair is very healthy since I’ve been paying close attention to it and keeping it moisturized but now this! 

Crossing my fingers this is just stress.

If you are experiencing anything like it, let’s share tips and see what happens. Hopefully in a few months all will be well.

I see little hairs growing in the balding area.. I’ve been using tea tree oil and a fungal treatment I had in my closet on top of the rosemary/olive oil/coconut oil combo

Also this could be linked to a weave I did back in November (I remember two braids were too tight)
