They discontinued the brand I liked, so I still haven't found the prefect dry shampoo, but it does help A LOT. </p> <p>My hair definitely gets greasier and I feel like it is more "blah". I also don't think I get it done as often as I used to, which just adds to me feeling really "ugh" about it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hows-your-hair-after-pregnancybirth#post-2244754 Fri, 24 Jul 2015 08:35:13 +0000 dc yoga bee 2244754@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My hair is actually drier at nine weeks postpartum. I've always shed a lot so that's nothing new :bummed: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hows-your-hair-after-pregnancybirth#post-2244713 Fri, 24 Jul 2015 08:04:00 +0000 Alivoo01 2244713@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MoonMoon: Not really. Just frequent washing seems to do the trick. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hows-your-hair-after-pregnancybirth#post-2244685 Fri, 24 Jul 2015 07:42:23 +0000 MoonMoon 2244685@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't had greasy hair since high school! For all of you dealing with it, have you found a shampoo that helps? I'm used to using very thick conditioning shampoos for my curls and I don't think that's helping the current situation! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hows-your-hair-after-pregnancybirth#post-2244123 Thu, 23 Jul 2015 14:45:17 +0000 snowjewelz 2244123@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>YESSSS to the greasy faster thing! I'm 7.5 mo pp and the hair loss finally stopped being CRAZY, and I have crazy baby hair going on. I always has greasy hair, but I could get by 2 days without washing but now the next day it's already so gross!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hows-your-hair-after-pregnancybirth#post-2244087 Thu, 23 Jul 2015 14:16:31 +0000 mauxie 2244087@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel like my hair is a bit sparser and it grows slower :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hows-your-hair-after-pregnancybirth#post-2244086 Thu, 23 Jul 2015 14:15:20 +0000 Foodnerd81 2244086@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>C turns 2 next week and I still have weird length wisps all over! I guess my hair just grows really slow? It sucks. And I'm pregnant now so it's all going to start all over again in the spring. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hows-your-hair-after-pregnancybirth#post-2244056 Thu, 23 Jul 2015 13:53:30 +0000 MoonMoon 2244056@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At least I'm not alone! I'm guessing this is the new normal? :bummed: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hows-your-hair-after-pregnancybirth#post-2243572 Thu, 23 Jul 2015 07:39:53 +0000 Alivoo01 2243572@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine also gets greasier faster. I used to be able to go several days between washings. Now, I have to wash it every other day or it's pretty gross. Sigh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hows-your-hair-after-pregnancybirth#post-2243559 Thu, 23 Jul 2015 07:29:26 +0000 petunia354 2243559@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It seems to get greasy faster now but I can still get 3 days between washings. And it's less curly which sucks because I like to wear my hair that way in the summer but am stuck blowing it out all the time now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hows-your-hair-after-pregnancybirth#post-2243539 Thu, 23 Jul 2015 07:13:07 +0000 blackbird 2243539@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't notice any issues besides the wisps, but I got pregnant when E was 15 months old. I cut about a foot off when T was 7 weeks old </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hows-your-hair-after-pregnancybirth#post-2243532 Thu, 23 Jul 2015 07:06:03 +0000 MrsKoala 2243532@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sparser. A lot fell out and it's so many weird lengths! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hows-your-hair-after-pregnancybirth#post-2243482 Thu, 23 Jul 2015 01:08:04 +0000 sarac 2243482@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Greasy, flat, dull, just awful. Nursing is really what did it - my skin was dry and awful too. Right now I'm pregnant and I have the most beautiful, amazingly sun bleached thick hair. My hair will literally never be this nice again. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hows-your-hair-after-pregnancybirth#post-2243479 Thu, 23 Jul 2015 00:15:13 +0000 erinpye 2243479@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine is wavy now-- used to be stick straight! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hows-your-hair-after-pregnancybirth#post-2243468 Wed, 22 Jul 2015 23:04:56 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 2243468@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It gets greasy faster!!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hows-your-hair-after-pregnancybirth#post-2243454 Wed, 22 Jul 2015 22:15:55 +0000 MoonMoon 2243454@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO is 25 months old, so all the issues with postpartum hair loss and regrowth are resolved, but my hair seems... blah? It's lost a bit of its curl, it kind of sits flat, it seems to look greasy faster, etc.</p> <p>Did anyone experience a negative change in their hair post baby? Could this be because of nursing? Did your hair go back to its old self after a while, or after weaning, or is this my new normal? Maybe not even related to having a kid? </p>
