I don't know if it will help with thinning hair but maybe it's worth a shot? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-advice-for-thinning-hair-in-older-women#post-581817 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 09:13:51 +0000 SleepyMonkey 581817@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hair loss is mostly genetic, as I've learned. You can do things to slow the shedding but unfortunately not to stop it. I started shedding my beautiful thick hair when I was a teenager and the two things I've found that help to slow the shedding are taking gnc's hair skin and nails vitamins which have a ton of biotin in them and for me, eating meat every day. But i think the meat thing is probably specific to me....anyway It is important to note that you probably won't notice a difference for a couple weeks - it takes that long to show up in your hair. Anyway good luck. I know how stressful it can be! I stressed about it for a decade before I realized I couldn't do much about it. Worse comes to worst, I will buy a high quality wig! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-advice-for-thinning-hair-in-older-women#post-581747 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 08:45:25 +0000 mrs. wagon 581747@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ok tooooootally not baby related but I'm wondering if anyone (or your mom, or aunt, or grandma, etc) has had any success with products that help with thinning hair. I'm 7 months postpartum so my hair is thin but growing back, but my mom pointed out that I will probably have thinning hair in the future since both herself and my grandma do. :( It makes my mom really sad! Anything out there work for anyone that I could recommend to my mom (and keep in mind for the future for myself)?? </p>
