Good morning, friends! Is anyone else trying to get back into the groove post-Thanksgiving, and attempting to burn off eating their body weight in turkey and pumpkin pie last weekend?! Because progress has slowly been made over here…especially when leftovers are so darn delicious 😉
Now that I’ve been attempting to ease back into my routine after the holiday, I wanted to share a quick update on my hair loss progress over the past fall. The past few months, I opened up about my struggles with hair loss. I have stress induced alopecia that happens a few times each year, usually after a stressful event (starting a new job, a big life event happens, etc.), which causes my hair to fall out for about 6-8 weeks afterwards. This time, rather than just letting it happen and making me feel down, I decided to make a few changes in my life to make my hair, and the rest of my body, a little healthier. To make myself feel mentally healthier and better (especially since my hair loss is triggered by stress), I started going to more yoga classes in the neighborhood, finding more time in my busy schedule to take care of myself (more baths, self-care Sundays, and unwinding as much as possible!) and started more supplements and trying new products to help make my hair grow back quicker and fuller than usual.
Besides taking collagen daily, I’ve been using Keranique hair productsthat have really made a difference in growing back my hair. I shared an update last month, and since then my hair has continued to grow more than when I’ve had bouts with hair loss in the past – so much so that I’ve had to re-highlight my hair a few times after I started using the products! Keranique is the only hair regrowth system that’s made with an FDA approved ingredient to regrow hair, and the system both regrows hair and make hair look thicker and healthier looking too. I personally love the Stimulating Shampoo and Volumizing Conditioner – which help stimulate your scalp and give you the volume you want to feel more confident when you hair is falling out (and believe me, a confidence boost is always needed when you’re experiencing hair loss!)
The Keranique Regrowth Treatmentis another one of my favorite products that I’ve used over the past few months, and I love that it helps regrow my hair and revitalizes hair follicles that could use a little love. It comes with an Easy Precision Sprayer that helps directly target thinning areas, or go right to your roots if you have all over thinning like I have when my hair’s falling out. It’s made a big difference in tandem with the other products in the system, and my hair has finally stopped falling out and started growing back over the past few weeks. I’ve still been using the shampoo and conditioner though because I love the products that much! While I’m hoping this is the last time I experience hair loss, I know that it will probably happen again since my hair loss is stress induced. But at least next time, I have a few products in my arsenal that will help me get my hair back in shape – and some strategies to de-stress and take better care of myself too.Thanks to Keranique for sponsoring this post!
