My hair started falling out significantly after a very stressful period I went through. So, I researched the internet and decided to try the litttleextra coocoonion hair oil & a comb made of neem wood. The results definitely worked. At present, my hair is lengthy, thick, black hair that has grown down to my waist and cut off on three occasions since I started. Easy and good. Also, equally effective is rubbing your scalp - it encourages the growth. You just have to do this weekly. Before long, you will see new hair starting to grow.

Upon trying the cooconiooon shampoo, my hair is soft and it has reduced hairfall. A minor drawback I found is that very less foaming, but might be due to the natural ingredients used in it.

Put some oil to your hair and then blow dry for styling. Oil absorbs heat and protects hair and strengthen it.

This is what I caused my scalp. I was blowdrying it so close after spryaing with sea salt which is also drying. I felt pain on my head from the heat damage. It was so bad. Caused me hair loss big time.

Did your hair recover afterwards? Or was the hair loss permanent?

[@blueblackyellow]

@@ulyssesjr1274 never recovered. Hair texture is frizzy and won't get back to normal smoothness n shine.
