I noticed my hair went from air drying straight and frowy/frizzy to air drying VERY curly and frizzy... I have NEVER in my life had curly hair and now I do! Pretty weird and I wonder if it will change again after pregnancy.
Has your hair changed?

During pregnancy is was thick and wonderful (since I wasn't losing any hair). 8 months pp it's the same as it was before I got pregnant.

Mine stayed the same. I was pretty disappointed because you always hear how hair gets thicker during pregnancy.

My hair isn't any thicker, and I praise Buddha for that, lol, I have UN-GODLY thick hair as is (like AT LEAST 4 times as much hair as the "average" head - multiple hair dressers have confirmed that, lol). If my hair got any thicker, I think my head would snap off. I actually think I've been shedding MORE since becoming pregnant...
But, it has gotten MUCH curlier. I've always had wavy hair, but NEVER like this before! It's fun!!

With DS, my hair got curly-ish. It stayed that way too, but now that I am pregnant again, its kind of back to straight. And turning red, which I have no idea what that is about! And it is still falling out this time.

My texture is about the same, but I think it is a little more oily than normal.

my hair is the same just seems like less is falling out and maybe less oily!

@artbee: I'm with you. My hair hasn't changed a bit and I feel like I got the short straw. All these women raving over their glorious pregnancy hair and mine looks the same as always!

no, not at all I don't feel like. but my hair has always been super, super thick. like if I braid it, it's half the size of my wrist. so I'm ok with it not getting thicker, honestly, because it already gives me a headache if I wear it in a ponytail.
a girlfriend of mine, though, had her hair become wavy when she got pregnant. mine is stick straight, so I was soooo hoping that some sort of change like that would happen, but it had not unfortunately. it's also not any oilier or drier that it was before that I've noticed.

Mine went from super curly (like small spirals) to barely even wavy.
After spending the first 30 years of my life trying to figure out how to manage my crazy curly hair, and finally coming to love it- now it's almost straight and I'm starting all over again trying to figure out how to wear it and manage it!

Mine is even thicker, but otherwise the same. My mom said hers got much curlier and darker "overnight" when she was pregnant with me. I still don't have a single curl or wave, no matter how hard I try to scrunch/ diffuse

Mine is thicker but otherwise the same. Growing like a weed - I feel like I need a haircut every 6 weeks though!

During pregnancy, my hair was HEAVENLY. Soft, silky, awesome.
