My hair has always been super thick though. I have noticed that it's even wavier than before, and downright curly in the back. It was super straight until I hit puberty, too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hair-change-after-giving-birth#post-2456642 Wed, 10 Feb 2016 11:53:12 +0000 Mrs D 2456642@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Way darker than pre-babies! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hair-change-after-giving-birth#post-2456638 Wed, 10 Feb 2016 11:52:23 +0000 LAZB 2456638@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's good to see that so many others are dealing with greasy PP hair! Sorry y'all are dealing with it too, but I'm glad I'm not alone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hair-change-after-giving-birth#post-2456537 Wed, 10 Feb 2016 11:14:44 +0000 knittylady 2456537@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! It's not at all shiny any more, and always looks frizzed out but flat at the same time. :(</p> <p>Another thing thats super weird is that when I was getting a cut after DS1 but while pg w DS2 the stylist asked me about how often I color my hair. I told her I had never colored it in my life and she proceeded to show me and all the other stylists in the salon that there was a distinct line in my hair where the color changed. She said she didn't know if it was due to childbirth or due to becoming pregnant again because it depends how fast my hair grows. (Also I got pg 6 mos pp so that made it harder or course)</p> <p>I went back awhile after DS2 was born and boom - another line of color change.</p> <p>So apparently I'm a tree trunk now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hair-change-after-giving-birth#post-2456528 Wed, 10 Feb 2016 11:05:45 +0000 Mrs.KMM 2456528@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine gets greasy so much faster than before I had kids. It sucks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hair-change-after-giving-birth#post-2456295 Wed, 10 Feb 2016 08:58:38 +0000 pachamama 2456295@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Littlebit7: My hair is SO MUCH greasier since I had my son! It was like BAM, back to being oily! It sucks! My skin is super dry. Makes no sense. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hair-change-after-giving-birth#post-2452075 Sat, 06 Feb 2016 14:51:41 +0000 snowjewelz 2452075@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! It gets greasy that much faster :meh: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hair-change-after-giving-birth#post-2451810 Fri, 05 Feb 2016 22:57:17 +0000 sapphire 2451810@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, it started coming in a slightly different t color! It unfortunately looks like I had dyed hair and let the roots grow out, but I haven't dyed my hair in years. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hair-change-after-giving-birth#post-2451797 Fri, 05 Feb 2016 22:35:16 +0000 erinpye 2451797@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep! Went from absolutely stick straight, to wavy/ curly, but not evenly so, it's mostly in the back. 2 years postpartum with my second, it's continuing to get curlier. It's also always been thick, fine strands but SO much hair, but it seems even thicker now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hair-change-after-giving-birth#post-2451767 Fri, 05 Feb 2016 21:48:54 +0000 AprilFool 2451767@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I lost my curl after my daughter was born. As soon as I got pregnant again it was back. I did start seeing a new stylist at the same time though so who knows? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hair-change-after-giving-birth#post-2451596 Fri, 05 Feb 2016 18:40:53 +0000 Littlebit7 2451596@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thank you all! I guess I will keep my stylist but contemplate a new style with my new wavy hair! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hair-change-after-giving-birth#post-2451585 Fri, 05 Feb 2016 18:31:58 +0000 FannyMae 2451585@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My post partum hair loss hasn't really started yet (almost 11 week baby), it got really thick and dense during pregnancy, and my baby hair at the bottom has gotten quite curly while the rest is wavy (what I call the typical southern european wavy hair). I wonder if I will start losing hair in the next few weeks and clog the drains. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hair-change-after-giving-birth#post-2451583 Fri, 05 Feb 2016 18:30:37 +0000 Alba4 2451583@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yea, mine got greasier. I can't go more than 2 days without washing it. But now I have awesome pregnancy hair!! I'll enjoy it while I can! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hair-change-after-giving-birth#post-2451574 Fri, 05 Feb 2016 18:18:34 +0000 sarac 2451574@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. Nursing makes it kind of dull and greasy. Totally crappy look. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hair-change-after-giving-birth#post-2451565 Fri, 05 Feb 2016 18:15:28 +0000 HLK208 2451565@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use to have very curly hair. Now it's just kinky at the roots and straight but frizzy from about eye level down. It's also flatter than it use to be. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hair-change-after-giving-birth#post-2451563 Fri, 05 Feb 2016 18:13:29 +0000 sleepybear 2451563@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My stick straight hair got wavy - but just in the back. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hair-change-after-giving-birth#post-2451559 Fri, 05 Feb 2016 18:07:21 +0000 Mrs.Pinecone316 2451559@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine got super think and kinky and wavy.

My hair is super flat, greasy, and I just hate it, to be honest. I used to have the thickest hair that was so full of body and I could go 6 days without washing it. Now it's just greasy and flat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hair-change-after-giving-birth#post-2451484 Fri, 05 Feb 2016 17:14:55 +0000 Cherrybee 2451484@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, it is curly now - was just wavy before. It is much drier and way more delicate, too. I used to have to wash it every day, but now I can go 2-3 days between washes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hair-change-after-giving-birth#post-2451452 Fri, 05 Feb 2016 16:53:41 +0000 MoonMoon 2451452@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, my hair isn't as curly as it was before. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hair-change-after-giving-birth#post-2451395 Fri, 05 Feb 2016 16:22:42 +0000 Twolittlemen 2451395@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My hair is straighter. You can actually see it happening in pictures during my pregnancy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hair-change-after-giving-birth#post-2451394 Fri, 05 Feb 2016 16:22:21 +0000 avivoca 2451394@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It hasn't really changed much. I think it gets greasier faster (or maybe I just don't have as much time to devote to it in the shower). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hair-change-after-giving-birth#post-2451377 Fri, 05 Feb 2016 16:14:45 +0000 lovehoneybee 2451377@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My hair is wavier since I had kids! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hair-change-after-giving-birth#post-2451355 Fri, 05 Feb 2016 16:00:00 +0000 Littlebit7 2451355@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Other than post-partum hair loss, did your hair change texture or color after giving birth? I'm 10 months post partum and I feel like my hair has gotten more wavy. And because I have a pixie cut/really short hair it's more noticeable. I've just been generally unhappy with my hair. </p> <p>OR.....</p> <p>It could be due the new stylist I have since we moved here. She started cutting my hair when I was 6 or 7 months pregnant. So I don't know if my hair has actually changed or she just....sucks</p> <p>So enlighten me!! Did your hair change? (Or does my stylist suck? :happy: ) </p>
