I am sick of my hair?

[Anonymous]

My hair is thin and so greasy. I lose like tons of hair every damn day. I haven't blow dry my hair for a loooong time, haven't wash my hair with hot water, haven't straightened it.. Even all of this dont seem to be working for my hair. And my hair is (as you can guess) too flat. And i french braid it to make it look a little voliminous but even that doesn't work too, i wait for like 15 hours and then i unbraid it, it looks like i didn't braided it and waited for 15 hours... It looks flat and straight again. Please i tried so many things that i didn't mentioned here. Nothing works please help me i cry every fucking day im about to shave all my fucking gross hair i beg you if someone have an opinion please share with me. These photos are after i french braided it and waited for like 15 hours and unbraided it.

i used to have thick hairs and i had hell lots of hair. my hair loss and getting thin started like two years ago after i get my hair bleached and dyed to red. i think it might be something related to it but i dont think my hair loss is about it cause i have been treating my hair really good, no hot water no blow drying, using good oils for my hair's ends, cutting them regularly every month..

Thin hair is usually genetics related, I understand it sucks but at some point you have to accept it. About losing hair that could have many causes but mental health problems like stress and anxiety can cause it, diet can also be a factor.

Judging from your photos I don't think it's as bad as you see it. Truthfully I don't see anything out of the normal at all and it saddens me that you feel the way you do.

If you need someone to talk with feel free to message me. Otherwise I hope you will find a way to accept your hair and not be so hard on yourself.

thank u for ur opinion. i used to have thick hairs and i had hell lots of hair. my hair loss and getting thin started like two years ago after i get my hair bleached and dyed to red. i think it might be somethin related to it but i have been treating my hair really good but nothing changes

[simonqq]

It could have been yes, hair loss can have many causes. Seek medical help if it doesn't stop. I feel for you, I really do.

[readyplayer001]

if a lot of hair is falling out it is more then just from dying it. there are so many things attributed to hair loss, hormone levels, thyroid, lupus (i have it), stress, alopecia. i would go to a hairstylist first and see what can be done they may recommend you cutting a good amount off, but also might be able to point you in the right direction of whats going on, then if they cannot help a DR. can. and as stupid as it sounds lots of people use mayo for a hair treatment, then put a bag over their head just the hair of course. here is a link

try to relax, and stay calm, tell yourself you are not your hair, i know because i just had mine buzzed off for cancer charity. you are so much more then your hair, goodluck and if at all keep us updated.

[Asker]

[readyplayer001]

You should go to a dermatologist and have some tests done. There could be genetics at play, hormones, diet, etc. So many things we don’t even realize are contributing to hair loss. A friend on mine from work was having that same issue and eventually it was determined that the water she washes her hair with was thinning it. I guess that in some city/states/etc, depending on how the water is treated it could have harmful properties. And yes, I mean sink and shower water lol. She never would’ve thought.

First, you could see your medical doctor for a full blood panel to make sure there isn't a metabolic quirk, nutrient deficiency, or other underlying cause for the loss. The doc should take a medical history, including any prevalence of hair loss from your parents or grandparents.

Ruling out any of these, the next step would be to see a good dermatologist, one who specializes in hair and scalp treatment. Over-bleaching, over-coloring and over-heating can weaken hair seats and follicles over time. Sorry to hear of your plight : good luck.

Hmm. I literally never ask this. But we need a picture. I’m great with hair. What you have said can be an obsession, a reality, both, or just a figment of your imagination. That last one might be the worst of all. But no help without knowing what im dealing with.

[Asker]

i tried to update it with a photo but i couldnt make it do we allow to add photos after posting questions

[Opinion Owner]

Just ask anew question, I’ll answer

[Asker]

i asked a new one with this title "i AM sick of my hair?"

[casserolie]

may be from hard water? try researching shampoo brands. sometimes the most common ones aren't the best lol im using Luseta Biotin & Collagen at the moment and my hair feels much thicker and doesn't get dirty as fast as it used to

[FreyaRed]

It's damaged, could be an infection. Go to dermatologist.

[Asker]

thanks for sharing opinion 💖 i will see a doctor when i got my money

[FreyaRed]

It's easy to get a yeast infection in swimming pools or public showers.

[Archerer]

Your hair actually looks very thick… and just so you know, thicker hair loses more hair than thin hair does. You actually have very strong hair. Or am I wrong? The pictures aren’t that specific

[Asker]

these pictures are after i french braided my hair, when i dont braid it, it looks too much thinner and more flat

[Archerer]

Which products do you use

[doopayo]

Try to contact a doctor, maybe they can help. It might be something deeper if chunks of your hair are falling out

[es20490446e]

Stop washing it so often, and apply argan oil on it.

[Asker]

believe me i tried it i waited to wash my hair till it gets really greasy and smells so greasy. i tried washin two days, washin three days, four days, sometimes i even tried one week...

[es20490446e]

One week, then two. You must apply Argan oil on it, or it won't work.

Then you won't need to wash it with soap again.

[Wester1967]

At least you have hair. I don’t have any. Count yourself lucky

[stupidgirlllll123]

Maybe try washing your hair with rice water, I heard that helps. Maybe you just have a lot of split ends or dead strands of hair, maybe cutting it will help?

[Hangry06]

If the bleaching and dye chemicals got to your roots, it can damage hair growth if it's not genetics

[Hangry06]

Check out Isabella Demarko on youtube
She also suffers from really thin hair. She has tried many methods too. Maybe you can relate

[Anonymous]

the peroxides that were in the dyes you used caused your hair to be thin. and tbh this post is really disappointing. i know of a woman who underwent chemo therapy and struggles to let her hair grow back. the fact that you have long hair and hate it because is flat is very disappointing and quite sad really. you have what other people want and can't have due to underlying medical conditions. learn to be grateful for what you have. show some appreciation and gratitude

[chriscdi]

You gotta buy the shampoo that says "for thin and greasy hair" or you can buy the ones that say "for all hair types" I bet you just go by smell lol

[Asker]

you bet? i used so many shampoos for greasy and thin hairs but no nothing works

[Asker]

that's why im so angry about it. i care so much about my hair i have used too many shampoos, creams etc.

[chriscdi]

You gotta shampoo twice, it's what I do, you gotta get all grease out of your hair, shampoo twice

[Likes2drive]

All I can do is different hair cuts because I don’t have much on top anymore and still gets oily after a day, I use Paul Mitchel shampoo though so that helps and no dandruff

[Buttonss]

I wish my hair was as straight as yours

[Asker]

i wish we could change our hairs 😔

[Asker]

with each other

[Buttonss]

Mine is really thick and wavy

[najekim]

I have long hair that is oily also. I've been using L'Oreal Paris Extraordinary Clay shampoo and it seems to be working fine. Hair lasts 2-3 days before getting oily again.

[Diana566]

Use horse shampoo google it up it helped my hair and plus makes it shiny

[VikingWarLord]

On posts like this you gotta post a picture of it!! JEEZE!

[Anonymous]

Looks too dry. Get hand on professional moisturize use. Try mayonnaise it's helpful my ex had most beautiful hair I have ever seen she was using mayonnaise on her hair

[msc545]

You need to see a dermatologist - something is wrong here.

[Twix005]

What is your grade? I'm a 4b.

[Asker]

i dont have curly hair

[Twix005]

You ever thought about using velcro rollers? Like Use a dry shampoo then put in the rollers... then use a light hair spray. Keep the rollers in over night. Or... you can always use extensions to give more volume to your hair. I don't think you have to cut it all off... aww... youtube videos are so good to watch when it comes to hair concerns. Hope you find the right method 🙂

[doopayo]

Try deep treatments or hair masks

[Wise4myage]

Than change your style.

[ashish804]

it isn't looking bad

[FunkyMonkee]

Can I have it?
