My hair didn't change during pregnancy but after, it's really oily. I have a ton of grays too I lost A TON of hair from 6 weeks to 6 months and the texture never changed.

I lost a ton of hair, I had to cut heavy bangs Also more grey but that might be the sleep deprivation.

My hair didn't change while pregnant but it's been falling out since about three months pp. My poor husband is getting sick of my hair clogging up our shower drain!

Mine felt a little thicker during pg, which I didn't need, but I wasn't complaining. At almost 6 months pp, there hasn't been any major fallout, just a few extra grey hairs.

Omg I'm scared to death! I didn't know 3mos PP was when hair starts falling out! I am just about 3 mos PP, and I don't have "good" hair to begin with- I can't imagine if it falls out and looks even scragglier!!

I didn't lose any hair while I was prego and had amazing hair. At 5 months pp it all started falling out!

@Sammyfab: same! my hair stopped falling out while I was pregnant and it was awesome. Now it falls out in clumps, and it sucks.

@HLK208: same.

My hair never changed at all but yet at 3n PP it started falling out like crazy and is still going strong at 4m pp. it is also more oily. I used to go 2, maybe 3 days between washes now I wash my head (no conditioner!) every single day.

@sarbear: my sisters got darker!

So far mine is oily in one weird spot and just starting to she'd at e months pp. it's thin too so I'm scared!

Mine was maybe a little thicker but not drastic. I chopped it off to donate at 6 wks pp but didn't notice a huge falling out period. I don't know if the cut made a difference--it was still shoulder length afterwards....

My hair was nice and thick and shiny during pregnancy. I paid for it afterwards though, when I started losing hair like crazy around 3 months postpartum. I'm now almost 1 year PP, and my hair is growing back in, but it looks ridiculous. It's all sticking up in funny places b/c of all of the short pieces that are growing back in. My bangs look especially silly. I think it will take another 6 months or so before I can get a haircut that makes everything look normal again...

I've been losing hair since about the start of the second trimester. It's also not growing as fast as it did before I got pregnant (and it never grew fast to begin with). I haven't had the baby yet but I really hope the hair loss won't continue. It's starting to look thin and it freaks me out.

Texture did not change but during pregnancy my hair stopped falling out. And post at about 4 months I lost SO much hair!! I can feel how thin my hair is, I swear it's like half the thickness now.

during pregnancy it didn't fall out as much as normal, and about 3 or 4 months pp, it was falling out like craaazyyyy.... everywhere! in bed, on the floor, especially in the bath drain. it stopped 7 months pp, but then again that's when i got preggers again. not sure if it would have kept going for a while or not tiny spikey hairs now all along my hair line.

@sarbear: My mom's went from blonde to brunette! Mine got a little darker, too. Apparently the high levels of iron in the prenatals can cause it to darken, as well as just hormones.
