  • Oop! 👀 Well, well, well, look who decided to FINALLY grace the timeline again….my HAIR! 💁🏾‍♀️It’s been a hot minute since my hair made an appearance, and trust me, there’s a story behind it. Back in Nov 2022, I discovered I was severely iron deficient! 😣 My hair was shedding like crazy to the point of thinning, also stress and my lack of boundaries between work and life. 🥺 Burnout hit hard, my diet went downhill, and I totally neglected my hair routine and self-care. But guess what? With heaps of prayers and slowing down to prioritize myself, I’m back to feeling like my joyful self! And can we talk about my hair? It’s finally starting to show all the TLC I’ve been pouring into myself - from self-care regimen to haircare routines and even a healthy revamped diet! 👏🏾 This is what I’ve been doing to recover! 👇🏾

      The best thing to do is get iron from your food. Animal products have heme iron. Plant foods have non-heme iron and require vitamin C to absorb. You can supplement with natural herbs like Sarsaparilla, Stinging Nettle, etc. I’m very anemic and just got blood work done two weeks ago so I’m making a conscious effort to bring my levels up. You might also have parasites that block the absorption of iron and other minerals.

      If iron pills make you sick take it with vitamin c. I take 1 serving per pill

    Hey Megs! You hair is looking much fuller and dense!! It looks GREAT!! Loving the grey streaks! Its BEAUTIFUL! I’ve been watching you for so long now that your beautiful greys are making me feel old!
    I have also had iron deficiency and low ferritin levels for years!! All my Doctor says is eat green leafy veg. They don’t really care. I’ve also got extremely fine eyebrows and lashes. I’ve taken iron tablets and tonics which don’t seem to make much difference? Glad your prescriptions are working for you.
