I lost SO MUCH. The new growth is finally long, but the old growth is so thin. I'm chopping it off this weekend. I have curly hair, and the old stuff isn't curling at the ends, so I have curly hair with straight ends. Looks awesome. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/seriously-how-diddo-you-deal-with-the-pp-baby-hairs#post-1802774 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 09:08:05 +0000 swurlygurl 1802774@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@2PeasinaPod: Me too :( I had to get bangs again because my halo of curly frizz was... not cute </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/seriously-how-diddo-you-deal-with-the-pp-baby-hairs#post-1802757 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 09:03:16 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1802757@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No advice because I just suffered through it! Just wanted to send you my commiseration. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/seriously-how-diddo-you-deal-with-the-pp-baby-hairs#post-1802750 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 09:01:31 +0000 Foodnerd81 1802750@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sweetooth: That's the look, only mine are still a little shorter. At least I know what's to come?</p> <p>@Weagle: I started taking my prenatal vitamins again yesterday. I'm still BFing so I really should have been taking them this whole time anyway... hopefully they help! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/seriously-how-diddo-you-deal-with-the-pp-baby-hairs#post-1802733 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 08:56:20 +0000 ValentineMommy 1802733@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sweetooth: I have thought the same exact thing. Ugh!</p> <p>@2PeasinaPod: curly/wild/frizzy hair here too. not cute at all :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/seriously-how-diddo-you-deal-with-the-pp-baby-hairs#post-1802661 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 08:35:13 +0000 2PeasinaPod 1802661@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh...I'm 22 months PP and they're still slooooowly growing in. It's even worse that I have curly hair. It's frizzy, poofy goodness. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/seriously-how-diddo-you-deal-with-the-pp-baby-hairs#post-1802657 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 08:33:35 +0000 Alivoo01 1802657@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just dealt with this last month I think? it was pretty bizarre, and everyone noticed. What can I do though ya know? I just waited it out and let them get longer so that gravity takes over. not much fun. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/seriously-how-diddo-you-deal-with-the-pp-baby-hairs#post-1802653 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 08:32:53 +0000 oliviaoblivia 1802653@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sweetooth: that's exactly what mine do. Thankfully they're long enough to tuck behind my ears now. For a long time I was Admiral Burnsides. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/seriously-how-diddo-you-deal-with-the-pp-baby-hairs#post-1802631 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 08:27:27 +0000 autumnlove 1802631@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I couldn't control it and I just looked a little crazy for MONTHS! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/seriously-how-diddo-you-deal-with-the-pp-baby-hairs#post-1802551 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 07:58:30 +0000 swurlygurl 1802551@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Uh, yeah, it's ridiculous. Mine are JUST now starting to blend (and only barely) and I'm about to give birth again :crying: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/seriously-how-diddo-you-deal-with-the-pp-baby-hairs#post-1802507 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 07:37:28 +0000 sweetooth 1802507@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ValentineMommy: Sometime I wish I could just shave them off :)</p> <p>@Weagle: I've been on prenatals for a month now, hopefully it helps!

I hope they work! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/seriously-how-diddo-you-deal-with-the-pp-baby-hairs#post-1802472 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 07:07:57 +0000 Weagle 1802472@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine didn't really start controlling themselves until I got pregnant again and prenatal vitamins started making my hair grow like crazy. Even then it was a few months before they really blended in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/seriously-how-diddo-you-deal-with-the-pp-baby-hairs#post-1802467 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 07:02:12 +0000 ValentineMommy 1802467@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sweetooth: OMG that is EXACTLY what I'm dealing with. They are maybe 1/3 of the length of my hair and they curl out just like that. It's so awful!!! I swear they're not growing back at all!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/seriously-how-diddo-you-deal-with-the-pp-baby-hairs#post-1802465 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 07:00:18 +0000 sweetooth 1802465@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have named my pp sideburns, my "Kelly Kapowski's". Seriously - I hope these babies blend back into my hair one day. I can't stand them! I don't have any advice for you - I have fine/thin hair too. My wispy parts seem to be more behaved on days that I use dry shampoo. I stick with Bumble &amp; Bumble dry shampoo. </p> [attach=2639/14/n9xqpe.480x360.KKpow.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/seriously-how-diddo-you-deal-with-the-pp-baby-hairs#post-1802439 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 06:24:56 +0000 ValentineMommy 1802439@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm 18m pp and STILL dealing with this. I sometimes think they're never going to grow back :-/ I also have bangs, which helps for the little hairs around the hairline. Other than that, it's ridiculous </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/seriously-how-diddo-you-deal-with-the-pp-baby-hairs#post-1802380 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 00:59:25 +0000 HabesBabe 1802380@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think other people notice it (besides your sister haha) as much as you do, so I never bothered with trying to hide or tame them. I just rock my normal hair style, which is p pulled back into a pony or bun with this crazy heat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/seriously-how-diddo-you-deal-with-the-pp-baby-hairs#post-1802324 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 22:51:27 +0000 regberadaisy 1802324@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I tried what @Andrea posted if we were going out. But most days I just dealt with it. I also have bangs so that helped. It was kinda ridic. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/seriously-how-diddo-you-deal-with-the-pp-baby-hairs#post-1802309 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 22:39:12 +0000 MoonMoon 1802309@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Now at 14 months, they're finally sort of growing out. For a while it looked like I'd gone berserk and given myself baby bangs...which was still better than the balding hairline look...no advice, just commiseration! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/seriously-how-diddo-you-deal-with-the-pp-baby-hairs#post-1802253 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 21:38:57 +0000 Sammyfab 1802253@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I smooth them down with a paste and then I brush it through so it doesn't look greasy. I use a boar hair brush that really helps with smoothing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/seriously-how-diddo-you-deal-with-the-pp-baby-hairs#post-1802229 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 21:19:43 +0000 Mrs. Taco 1802229@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel you! My "wings" are out of control. They're like 4 inch sideburns that have crazy static. I just gave up on taming them :bummed: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/seriously-how-diddo-you-deal-with-the-pp-baby-hairs#post-1802222 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 21:15:07 +0000 sunshineandsushi 1802222@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel your pain! At 12 pp, I ended up getting bangs cut because it was so awful. Fortunately, I am one of those women that bangs actually looks really good on. I got sooo many compliments afterwards. Plus, my hair naturally comes forward over my forehead, so it's flattering and works for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/seriously-how-diddo-you-deal-with-the-pp-baby-hairs#post-1802208 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 21:03:58 +0000 Andrea 1802208@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: you can apply it with a light touch. You just lightly swipe the hairs and they stay down. It didn't look greasy for me, but my hair is thick. It is this thing (for cool people, lol):</p> <p>[attach=162/14/n9wz2n.338x600.image.jpg] </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/seriously-how-diddo-you-deal-with-the-pp-baby-hairs#post-1802187 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 20:53:45 +0000 Foodnerd81 1802187@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: My hair is fine and looks greasy or crunchy if I'm not careful with how much product on use. Did that stick look greasy? I am thinking I need some more product, at least on the days when I actually care. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/seriously-how-diddo-you-deal-with-the-pp-baby-hairs#post-1802182 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 20:50:05 +0000 Andrea 1802182@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I smoothed them down with a gel stick. I think the brand was TIGI? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/seriously-how-diddo-you-deal-with-the-pp-baby-hairs#post-1802155 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 20:39:24 +0000 swedishfish 1802155@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: haha, that was sweet of your sister. I've threatened to shave my head a few times. That would help! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/seriously-how-diddo-you-deal-with-the-pp-baby-hairs#post-1802148 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 20:35:06 +0000 Foodnerd81 1802148@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@swedishfish: C is 12 months and it's the worst it's ever been now-- because the hairs are long enough to be really noticeable. Especially when it's humid.<br /> @Mrs. Oatmeal: At times, the front pieces actually look like the worst, most unattractive bangs ever. </p> <p>I just don't understand how I haven't seen this on other people. I'd like to say I just notice it more on myself and it doesn't really look that bad, but my sister noticed it today (but only agreed with me after I commented, she sweetly kept her mouth shut until I mentioned it and we laughed about it). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/seriously-how-diddo-you-deal-with-the-pp-baby-hairs#post-1802143 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 20:31:22 +0000 Corduroy 1802143@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>After promising DH I wouldn't get a mom hair cut I ended up cutting my hair 15 mo pp to deal. I couldn't get my hair to stay in a ponytail because 1/3 of it would wiggle out in an hour. It was awful. Now everything is just about even. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/seriously-how-diddo-you-deal-with-the-pp-baby-hairs#post-1802142 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 20:30:46 +0000 avivoca 1802142@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My hair is curly, so they kind of blend in for the most part, but the hairs growing in at my sideburns are so awkward looking. </p>
