  1. Hello, I'm 22 and I'm female. Ever since I was a little girl, my hair has always shed off really easily, but I never had to worry because my hair would grow really fast and I had a thick head of hair. I used to always complain about having too much hair and I would constantly wish for thinner hair. My wish came true last year. After breaking up with my boyfriend, I decided to move back home. During this period, I stopped taking birth control pills, I stopped smoking pot regularly, I stopped drinking as much, I stopped being sexually active, and I began experiencing a lot of stress from living with my parents. I started noticing my hair thinning out 5 months after moving back in with my parents. It was during this time that I curled my hair for the very last time since I saw a lot of gap between the curls. I started exercising more, sleeping better, drinking more water, and eventually it got a little bit better. Fast forward to the beginning of September, we moved, we had a host of family issues, I was preparing for the LSAT while also attending school full time. Things began getting really hectic. I stopped worrying about my hair simply because I had no time to think about it. After Christmas, my home environment began getting really toxic due to my mother not agreeing with some of the decisions I was making, and then on top of that I experienced a really stressful semester. My friends began making comments on my hair... "Did you get a haircut? Your hair is so thin now!" I started looking at my hair again and noticed how bad it got... This was about 2 or 3 months ago? So the last 3 months, I've been taking vitamins and cod liver oil, didn't really help much... I went to the salon recently and they introduced me to a hair loss system (shampoo, conditioner, and leave on spray) that only made my hair loss worse. Now I no longer blow dry or straighten my hair. I can't straighten it anymore, it'll look even thinner. So I've either been wearing it up or in a braid. If I run my fingers through my hair, sometimes up to 6 hairs would come out! When I look at other girls... All I can notice is how amazing their hair looks. When I see a girl with some hair loss issues I think to myself "OH GOSH! Is this how I look like?!" I want my old hair back, I take my old wish back, having thin hair sucks. I just want my thick black hair back again. I'm so scared about going bald and I've been avoiding hanging out with friends and going out because I don't want more people to comment on it. I can't live like this. How can I get my hair back? Should I keep on taking vitamins? Should I invest in better shampoo and conditioner? I've went to the doctors to get my blood checked and nothing is wrong. I just don't know what to do anymore. Please give me any advice you have. Thank you in advance!
