My hair fell out 😔

restarting my loc journey but with braids.. OH AND MY HAIR DIDN’T FALL OUT MB .. okay so boom let’s start off by saying I’ve been wanting Locs for years ..Locs actually play a big part in my family and I wanted to keep them around as I got older . Buttttt I’m also a hairstylist and love trying new styles and with starter Locs or Locs in general they don’t have as much versatility as loose hair does . 2 years ago I cut my hair off because of heat damn and the constant breakage . Last year I actually started my Locs and j I loved them buttt i was so excited about the growth I wanted to see my hair like all together and the versatility and my curly pattern and doing all the different styles again I wanted to dye my hair a lot…bad idea ..but hey it is what it is nowww I’m restarting with braids and hopefully I keep this process going I want it to be a success ngl .

... Read moreHair loss can be distressing, but understanding the causes is essential for hair care. Factors like heat damage, breakage, and the use of chemical treatments can lead to thinning hair. To promote healthy hair growth, it's vital to maintain a routine that includes proper nutrition, regular trims, and moisture. Low manipulation styles, like braids and locs, can offer a protective approach while allowing hair to thrive. Moreover, embracing protective hairstyles not only aids in growth but also decreases the need for frequent styling, reducing further damage. Don't forget to consult with professionals and invest time in caring for your scalp, as a healthy foundation is key to luxurious locks. As you traverse your hair journey, remember that patience is critical; hair growth takes time, and every phase has its beauty. Educating yourself about your hair type and experimenting with different products that suit your texture can greatly affect your hair's health. Celebrate each achievement, whether it's a new growth milestone or simply feeling more confident. Let's embrace our unique hair journeys together!

Hi all! :) I have very long thick hair and I think this style is probably my favorite that I’ve ever had done! With that being said it was a late appointment at night so literally all of these pictures were taken the day after so most of my curls and the style itself fell out already but just wante

My hair lasted 3 days!!!
I have fine hair, so I am constantly struggling to get volume and have my hair last all day. I was always super jealous of my friends whose hair would still look perfect the next day and I always thought mine fell out just because I move too much in my sleep. I got the Dyson air wrap for Christmas

My hair fell off… 😭
Soooo, if you know, then you know. I had braids in while on vacation and got a lot of salt water in it, which dried. I was so busy with moving that I’d forgot all about the risk of hair damage 😭. My hair fell out; therefore, I decided to dye the end blonde 👱‍♀️. I’ve never done anything drastic
