Hair Coloring?
Has anyone colored their hair since it started falling out/getting thinner? I desperately need to color mine (I usually do it myself) but am so afraid it will stress it out even more and break off and then I'd look even worse. Like many of you, my hair has thinned out considerably on top in the front and I don't want to make matters worse.... I truly hope this is a temporary situation like we are told. I am SO self-conscious, even though my friends tell me it is not that noticeable.
I have. My hair is dark to begin with, and I dye it almost black- I have dyed it twice since surgery, once since I have been having significant hair loss. I don't think it has been any worse since dying it. I used Herbal Essances Bold N Brillant box dye and I haven't noticed any more loss then normal.
Funny you should ask this question today. I just went to have my hair colored yesterday.(my normal 6 week color) It is really falling out..to the point that I have a couple of bald spots. I can't believe how much more body it has now. It actually looks thicker. I have a wig on order (it hasn't come yet), but my hairdresser has a better solution. She has some human hair extentions that almost match my hair color. The next time I go in she is going to fuse a few to my existing hair & then cut them into my style. I would have had it done yesterday, but she didn't have enough time. She's getting married next month, so I will have to wait until she gets back from her honeymoon. Hopefully they will look ok. She says that they should last a couple of months.
