A Rant | Stress? Anemia? Hard water?
Hey ya’ll - So this one’s a little longer so I chopped and screwed it for a little pizzazz lol Either way, the message is still the same; hard water sucks and has been trying to take me out. Nonetheless, I’ll be trimming more often and avoiding touching my hair with my shower water by any means necessary. Bisous :*
What is hard water? Hard water is high in dissolved minerals, largely calcium and magnesium likely picked up from the pipes our water flows through into our houses. Effects on the hair include breakage, thinning, tangles, dry scalp, dullness, brassiness or a green hue and frizziness amongst other things.

    I just recently discovered the Dickey Method. Just like when I was relaxing my hair, now that I’m natural, I’ve reached a plateau with growth. It’s healthier and longer now than ever since I’m natural, but I think I’m stuck because of dryness. My hair is not getting the moisture it needs, so I’ve been binge watching videos of women who are using this (Dickey) method to hear their thoughts and see their results. I’m convinced this is going to take my hair growth and health to the next level.👍🏼

    Also , sometimes if you're allergic to something, like a food could make your hair shed as well. You would have to monitor what you're intaking in your body. Also , not sure if you do already , but drink alot of water, eat fruits , and vegetables. THis is if you do not already . I found these even besides the hard water that my intake of certain foods affect my hair shedding and growth . Hope that helps !

    Just wanted to give this tip. My daughters have really long hair as well so I no longer wash loose hair. After the pre pop I only wash and condition her hair in plaits ( not too tight thought). Then I blow dry or style from each plait while the others stay stretched. This has cut down the time drastically!

    I'm going through this at the moment and also have been dealing with significant hair thinning since 2021. I've bought a shower head filter but the water is so hard where I live, it's welded the old shower head on I'm not strong enough to remove it. Now I've seen this video I'm determined to get this filter on and increase my iron intake. Thanks for helping me feel not quite so alone and I hope you see great improvements 🙏🏾

    I experienced COVID that lasted a good 11 days. I thought I was ok but I started to notice a loss of more hair than normal. After doing some research, I am realizing it’s from the strain my body had during that time and also the shampoo that I was using. So I started doing yoga and meditation daily and changed my shampoo and conditioner to littleextraa cooconion anti hair fall kit. And today I don't face any hair fall. Thanks for this video! I feel so much more at peace.

    Girl, welcome to the hard water club. I am a youtuber as well and I was documenting my hair loss journey and associated it with me stress shedding but I was wrong! I was loosing hair because of my water. Now I use distilled water. 6 gallons of water. It's on my channel so you can take a look. Good luck girl! It's been 2 going on 3 yrs and I am still growing out my hair. It got a lot better though so keep hope alive! 😊❤️ O and everything you used, I used. I still use distilled water till this day and I invested in a portable shampoo bowl (I am also a hair dresser so I had no choice) but if you need advice, please feel free to ask. I get it girl.

    The twists themselves are what's killing your hair. You need a new protective style and you have to switch up the protective styles. Get some Aphogee, good light moisturizer and keep your hair in a satin bun and 2 braids for 3 months. Trust me.
