Hair loss/thinningPosted by Meg on December 4, 2004 at 10:49:51: I have noticed that many people shed hair in the fall. If you had abulb on the end this means that hair had reached its terminal length and it was time to shed to make room for the new hair. You should notice in about two months lots of little fine hairs popping up especially around the hair line. This is perfectly normal. The hairs that have shed went dormant about two or three months ago and are now shedding as the new hair has began to push on it. Also hormonal shifts due to perimenopause will cause more hairs to shed than normal and this happens in cycles. I am fifty and have had three major sheds due to hormonal shifts, but it has always come back. I am very particular about my diet and I use the essential oils recipe that was posted here some time ago. I'll post it again to save time in searching 4oz (120ml) Jojoba oil or Emu oil 16 drops (1/8 teaspoon) of the following EO: Thyme Atlas Ceddarwood Rosemary Lavender I have also added 8 drops of Basil to this, but it was not part of the original recipe. Ayurverdic oils are also good for thinning hair. These include: Amla Bhringara Brahmi Of course there are many things can effect hair loss and thinning. These can include stress, hair dye, not enough nutrients in your diet and hormonal shifts. Hope this is helpful to you. Meg
