Unhappy Hair Loss?

I'm desperate
I've always lost a lot of hair even way before I started LCing but lately it seems to have gotten worse. I read in this forum that taking Biotin supplements help hair loss. I finished a whole bottle but still, I'm losing way too much hair.

Does anyone else suffer from excess hair loss?
Are there any particular foods or other vitamins that helps retain hair you have? I'm taking extra calcium and trying to eat more protein because I heard that helps strengthen your hair.
I want to have lustrous full bodied hair, please help

Hugs, Rose

Hi Rose,

Fortunately, this phenomenon is temporary. Have a look at the info on this site for some help.

Hi Rose, Thank you so much for the link, you're a lifesaver!

I'm going to try every tip they suggest. I still have a couple of weeks to go before reaching the three months mark on low carb lifestyle, so hopefully this dreadful hair loss will come to an end. I hate to see all my hair gone, you know?

I'd like to thank you for maintaining such a wonderful forum. This forum has been so wonderful with information and support. And you always offer words of encouragement to everyone

I recently got a chicken added to my name!
Up until few days ago, I had those little eggs in a cup.

Well hope you have a wonderful weekend and I'll be sure to post my hair recovery progress.

Hugs, Rose
