My hair used to be envied now it's dry, damaged, thin near my bangs. I went back to using the shampoo I used as a teen. And I use rogaine. It helps a little but not as much as I need. Wigs are uncomfortable but look great on. I miss my high school hair.

I am sorry you are having trouble with changes in your hair.

I have lost a lot of wave/curl with my present meds.

My hair is very fine and it dries out very easily and is damaged very easily. I call it fairy hair.

Coconut oil helps it and also castor oil.

I put it on my hair to the roots and sleep with it on my hair and wash it in the morning. It helps to strengthen my hair and has helped it to grow.

Biotin is the most amazing thing. Really makes hair grow back. Walmart has it. Klonipin made my hair fall out.

If it's really bothering you, look into seeing a trychologist.
