  • Come with me to the dermatoligist with me to get scalp injections to grow my edges back.
    As you all know I got my first round of shots in February and this week I recieved round 2. The day before I washed my hair with a clarifying shampoo and I focused on my problem area. FYI I tried a new shampoo and I hated it, it made my hair feel like straw.
    I put in mini braids. (My hair is so thin ya’ll) and good thing I did since we found a problem area. She didn’t say anything at my appt but I noticed as she was examining my scalp that she paused at that particular section. When I was putting DOO GRO on my scalp a few days later I felt around that area and felt the spot. I have been oiling it and I’m hoping it returns on its own and I REALLY hope alopecia isn’t roaring its ugly head again.
    I wasn’t able to get footage of me getting the shots because she was just really bust. BTW she doesn’t know I have been documenting my journey, I’m too nervous to bring it up. (Fun fact: I have never told anyone that I know in person, including family, that I have this YT channel lol)
    I got one injection on each side, last time I had to get 3 injections (one in the middle) so were getting better.
    I have my next appt in 5 weeks!
    Let me know if you like these quick updates in between my regular updates! 💕

      @@tamithecreator Both hair & skin. My hair came out from COVID. I was seeing Dr Edges in TX, then moved back to FL. My hair grew back but my edges were thin & growing back slowly. When I had COVID, I fainted & got 18 stitches in my face. Dr Lex is treating that scar as well. Hair & skin is looking a lot better.

      Wow, if you make a four hour drive then my two from PBay ain't nothing. I'm a middle aged woman that's going through menopause (Hormones) and my hair is thinning really bad. I've been bleaching my hair for years and still had a full head of hair. June 1st I'm going to shave it all off like @tamithecreator and start going to Dr. Alexis for my edges to regrow. Once my hormones level out my edges will be filled in as well 🙏🏽🤞🏽. Thanks ladies for letting us know she's really as nice ☺️ as she comes across on UA-cam. I work with doctors and a lot of them have horrible bedside manners..

    We have traction alopecia in the same areas and what’s crazier is from your big chop video, it looks very similar. Been wanting to cut all of my hair off to start over too. So over it. My coworkers have been recommending injections, but wasn’t sure where to go. You have inspired me to do the big chop though.
