    This video saved my hair! I didn't know that the itching, burning was connected to breaking. I certainly didn't know it was indicative to a disease that could lead to permanent hair loss. I'm coming at it with everything I can, from inside out and outside. Nutrition, massage, essential oils, lots of attention. It's been a month and my hair is only 1/4" long at the crown but, at least it's not bald so I know I have a chance. It's very thick but short.

      Standard treatment solutions will keep you trapped in the hair loss and, bit by bit make your hair loss even more serious. Instead of wasting your money and time, make sure you think about the natural treatment to get rid of hair loss for good with guaranteed outcome, uncover more here: MootHair.xyz

    This video has brought to light all of the negative issues I've been having with my hair for YEARS! Tender scalp at the crown, tight ponytails and high buns with bobby pins. My hair has always grown in an upside down "u". Sides grow for days but the center is a different story. I now realize it's because I've never truly cared for my crown. Thanks a million, I have so many notes 😊

    Great video! I got my diagnoses after a biopsy. I was relaxed at the time and he told me to go natural and stay away from tight braids/twists. That was about 10yrs ago and today, although I still have symptoms of CCCA, being natural has helped. My crown's condition is delicate...but texture strong. 😊

    • @barryjuice22
      @barryjuice22 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      You said you got diagnosed which most black women don't know to do. Although she gave some good advice black women need to be diagnosed and may need medical treatment for the inflammation and itching and burning and stop the progression of the disease and prevent further hair loss. I've ccca and being treated; did you have any satisfying regrowth of hair I'm so hoping to get some of my hair back. I can't wear wigs so I cut all my hair to a brush cut but it's clearly very thin and embarrassing. And during your 10 yrs do you have flair ups. Thank you in advance for any advice.

    Thanks so much 4 this video, I thought I was the only person on the planet w/this issue. I call that area 'my heritage' hair because all of a sudden it just changed. Became super coarse & resistant to moisture, combing, straightening or cooperating with any hairdo I tried. It was like nope I got my own thang...lol. My scalp became too tender to touch at all & the hair just started breaking so it was just a tiny wild fro in the top of my head. I looked a hot mess & I got depressed because I have very long, fine wavy hair everywhere else so it was very hard to hide. So I resorted to intense moisturizing, black castor oil & PRAYER!!! Wigs & ponytails were my life for 1 year to grow it back. It's still resistant & very sensitive to strain or stress, it will get super sore but at least it's not bald! Thanks for this post!!!

    Your videos are extremely informative. That's great, especially for our type of hair. I didn't know what was causing that itching and soarness. My hair is very fine and straighten out quickly without heat. But I have developed crown issues, but thanks to your research my hair is beginning to grow back.
    I'm glad I found your channel bc there are too many no nothing channels out there just for the money. I recommend your channel to all my friends.
    Thank You 😊

      I get the same thing, hair is healthy every where else on my head, I’m forced to wear wigs bc of it.
      Everyone is different but l noticed when I consume rice or breads or fast food more than twice a week in a regular basis my hair health suffers.
      I drink lots of water (more than a gallon a day) and I eat lots of fresh veggies and fruits and sunflower seeds.
      Carbs and starches don’t agree with me and my hair health, hope this helps and I wish you luck on your journey to regrowth.

    People with this condition need to go to a dermatologist. This is areal disease that requires anti-inflammatory medication to reverse the condition. You really need to add that to your video. My experience with this was that changing my diet to avoid sugar (in all forms) the inflammation was reduced...relaxers, heat or anything that cause inflammation should also be avoided.

I had to figure it out on my own about a year ago how to rehab my crown and thankfully its growing out thicker than all the rest of my hair now but it was ver discouraging and difficult in the beginning. Felt like I was alone and something was wrong. sectioning the hair and pampering it created amazing results for me. I have had my hair in a grid for about a year now and my hair is longer and healthier than its ever been :)

I’ve put the Virgin Hair Fertilizer Ointment on and that has helped with the growth. Thank you for the info.

    I spend a lot of time driving and never closed the sunroof screen until I notice the hair in my crown area was more dry and frizzy than the rest of my hair. I assumed the sun beating directly down on top of my head must be making a difference. A few weeks ago I completely closed my sunroof & screen. Hope to see an improvement soon...

    I took my hair out of braids last year Dec 2021, I had it in for 2 months. No braids for 3 weeks. I would twist it at night take it out during the day. Decided to cut it. 4c hair extreme shrinkage and saw breakage on both sides of my head, crown area. I've been using herbal rosemary water and sage with lavender oil carrot oil in bottle to spritz in the morning before I tackle my hair. Its slowly growing back. The cholesterol medicine caused the breakage. I think also the last style of braids I had. Thank for posting this video. video.

    I had a similar experience and here's how I got the pain to stop: The crown of my head started burning/itching and the hair started thinning. My head would hurt so bad I thought I was dying. So I started getting acupuncture treatments and after the 1st treatment the pain was gone (I went back for 6 other treatments for different things). Its been 1 month since that first initial treatment and I still have no pain. My hair is starting to grow, so I would definitely recommend going to an acupuncturist.
