At a (hair) loss
>> Friday, March 5, 2010
I've called in the plumber. My shower drain is clogged. My hair brush is bushy and there is hair everywhere I look. There's hair on my pillow, hair on the floor, hair on my clothes, and the very last straw, hair on my brand new Samsung wide screen monitor. I am. Not. Happy.
This is me after giving brith to Syakirah in 2007.This is me NOW
Postpartum hair loss is common. After I gave birth to Syakirah, I went through the same thing. Thank God for the What To Expect book series. Yes, I do realize that I could have simply Google-d TM the answer but bear in mind that at that point I was still using the ever unreliable Celcom broadband using my SEK810i as a modem. Sorry yer, bebudak Netcare. You know it's true hehehe.
In the end I had no choice but to chop off my long locks. The hairdresser also recommended me a treatment to "balance the PH"of my scalp and to "stimulate hair follicle regrowth". What they oh-so conveniently forgot to mention was the shock treatment involved in the procedure. All I'm saying is that there was mild electrocution involved. I will leave the rest to your imagination.
Oh, and the hair loss thing? Apparently, there really isn't much else we can do about it but wait it out. In the mean time, electrocution anyone?

Hi, I just realised that you dropped by my blog =) Haha don't really check my cbox that often but its a nice surprise to hear from you. Thanks for the compliments. Are you a Pratchett fan too?
Eyriqazz, no worries. Everyone entitled to own opinion. My writing reflects my disjointed and completely random thoughts LOL
teh ais limei, my friend has been trying to convert me to be pratchett fan for years. i'm a tolkien-atic and robert jordan fan. which is the best pratchett book for absolute beginner like me? hehehe
I had to badger my Doctor for months to test my thyroid level and, as I thought, it was low, so I have been on meds for about a year now and that hasn’t made any difference in the hair loss.I also developed seborrheic dermatitis on my scalp and the sides of my nose.
