I was experiencing both breakage and shedding. I was extremely anemic( my ferritin levels were a 4) and I had several vitamin deficiencies. I've been taking my supplements for 6 months now and my hair problems are slowly improving.
Hey Fops, new subbie here!👋 I've been binge watching your videos, you are so knowledgeable and I love your sense of humor. I recently discovered I'm high porosity instead of low porosity and my hair is now thriving. I'm so glad I found your channel, btw TEST!
Hi Fops, keep doing what you're doing because its amazing. Love that you are educating and giving us all the tools for long lasting healthy hair rather than quick fixes. I stan
I'm so grateful Linwood referenced your channel. You are a life saver, game changer for all your wealth of information you give. Thank you so much and for this video. Stay bless.
Can I ask a question? If a mix a penetrative oil eg coconut oil with a non penetrating one like mineral oil into a grease, will the coconut oil still absorb?
i just realised that you didnt really give a tip. very informative as always though. my intuition definitely tells me its bc of hair dye. i would love to know how you would suggest us on how to treat damaged hair.
Excellent and informative video. I suffer alopecia areata from time to time and sometimes worry unnecessarily. I have very long, fine (but lots of it) wavy hair and the visual was super helpful! I usually ask my hairdresser to give me a heads up if there are any bald patches haha
Im experiencing postpartum shedding. My stylist is a trichologist and help with it, but was direct in telling me how long will may last. I now have a bald spot near the front (4months postpartum, natural, no weaves, medium length hair, fine but dense hair)
I feel like since going natural I am thinning more in my crown area I'm retaining length but I'm not retaining the extra thickness and volume that I want and I feel my hair is definitely thinning in the crown area
Thank you my hair is thinning but I have been growing it for two years ..... so am guessing I notice it more now it’s not short ..... new sub thank you 🙏 xx
I lose more than 8 days worth of hair in a day. The only factor I can attribute that to was my 5 years stressful PhD. It's been over a year of rest since grad and I've only seen about 30% improvement. I shd see a specialist.
Your videos are always so informative, love it! What do you think of companies such as Garnier putting Isopropyl alcohol in their hair products? Is that not very drying and bad for our hair?
@@AfopeAtoyebi I was shocked that a few of my staple products contained isopropyl, in the couple months since I started using products with better ingredients, the improvement in hair is nothing short of incredible. Because of you I now pay close attention to, ( and understand better), the ingredients in my hair products.
Thank you for your thorough explanation regarding shedding and hair loss. Do you have any suggestions regarding female pattern hair thinning which accompanies aging? My hair was super thick and I’ve noticed that it’s thinning on the top. There’s no burning itching, bleeding at anything like that, just thinning. Thx. Also test! 👍🏽😊
Could it still be shed hair if its long hair without the white bulb especially if a person has low sebum production? I cant seem to identify a bulb at the end of what i think is long shed hairs.
Could you please help me? I’m Middle Eastern and I was born with thick curly hair. It went totally straight as a child which is fine! Drink puberty, my hair went thick wavy curly. Last year because of the pandemic, my hair texture changed. My hair is thick and dry! It barely grows! I’m someone who cut my hair during middle school into a pixie cut and a year later, it was waist length! I’ve checked all my vitamins and minerals. And what’s strange is that my hair becomes very curly during my period please help me out
Test!! Bupropion triggered a shedding like woooh (in two months using it, shedding started at ~30 days into the medication) I stopped the medication ab 20dayd ago but the shedding doesn't seem to stop, one third of density is lost 😭
I have burning inflammation on my scalp for 2 yrs. Been too see a Dermatologist and Famiky doctor she sees nothing wrong with my scalp but gave me a Shampoo to use for 4 weeks 2xs per week. Still having the issue. Should I see another doctor or Tricologist?
Yes an no, I think this is largely determined by genetics, but there are things you can do to maximise that time. I mention one of these tips in this video - ruclips.net/video/YCbMcJTUWRM/видео.html
That's will be great!! Thank you so much. I'm battling with a lot of shedding, breakage, frizz and I think inflammation of the scalp. I don't know what to do. Dermatologists said its normal, I get the same answer......aging. I'm in my mid 40s
OK your hair is a very tight texture, and mine is longer... so your pompom looks very small compared to mine but mine is about the size of your 8 days, within 2 days 😔
It won’t shed more - but it’s possible that it will break more due to the manipulation of the different textures, and the fragility at the like of demarcation between the two.
Ok so I assume then if you have a hormone imbalance that caused excess hair loss, or a time of stress that's caused more hair loss, then that would mean you're losing more than 15% of your hair at one time and I'd assume once you got hormones and stress under control that it would throw off this percentage for the rest of your life?
Love this content. I think I had telogen effluvium. I had a hard move last September after getting evacuated from a fire area. Had to live on friends couches for 2 months. + Covid fears. Stress city! By December I was seeing what looked like a lot of hair each week during my wash. I'm over 50 so also...Menopause. I did think the hair loss was mostly coming from the front, temples and back of the crown. Panic! Then I read about Telogen Effluvium. By March 2021 I finally got a haircut and I told the stylist about my experience. She said she saw a lot of tiny new hairs on my scalp. Relief! BTW I was losing long hair but never noticed the white bulb. Is the white bulb smaller for fine hair?

Who else identifies with 8:45? 8:45 is how I console myself every time I take out my braids or mini twists 😂😂
I took a nutrient panel and found out I was missing nutrients that was vital for my hair growth, etc. Now it's flourishing again.
What is a nutrient Panel?
@@jdovly I was just going to ask
Please can you explain what a nutrient panel is?
Where ?
A nutrient panel is another way of saying “blood test.”
TEST!! WOW! You are the truth 😃👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Awww thank you!!

Yaaaaaaay!!! This is what I like to hear! How exciting.
Don’t worry girl, the test is coming 🥰🙏🏽
Girl, you be knowing what to talk about. Thank you for this video.
Hi Fops, keep doing what you're doing because its amazing. Love that you are educating and giving us all the tools for long lasting healthy hair rather than quick fixes. I stan
I love you! You're still on the noisemakers list though. 🙃
I like your videos before even watching them ☺️❤️
Hahahhaa Love this! Thank youuu
I'm so grateful Linwood referenced your channel. You are a life saver, game changer for all your wealth of information you give. Thank you so much and for this video. Stay bless.
Test! I’m now binging your vids 💚
Yes please, show us how to test for abnormal hair loss
Loud and clear. On it like white on rice
I saw the list of Tricologist, but I didn't see any in the USA
Test! Love your channel ❤️✊🏽
Thank you! 🥰🙏🏽 Gotcha
Can I ask a question? If a mix a penetrative oil eg coconut oil with a non penetrating one like mineral oil into a grease, will the coconut oil still absorb?
I've always wondered this- are we making a new unpenetratable oil or is it just coconut oil in mineral oil?
Test. This is so useful and it would be good to find out if shedding is natural or excessive.
i just realised that you didnt really give a tip. very informative as always though. my intuition definitely tells me its bc of hair dye. i would love to know how you would suggest us on how to treat damaged hair.
Please do the video with the test

Great idea!! I'll add this to my requested video Ideas for sure!
I feel like since going natural I am thinning more in my crown area I'm retaining length but I'm not retaining the extra thickness and volume that I want and I feel my hair is definitely thinning in the crown area
Yess test!! my hair is shedding after i used accutane pills for acne😞
Oh no! Gotta get this test out asap
Am losing hair for sure , thank you for sharing your knowledge with us . Love you
My pleasure Vivien! 🙏🏽 Have you been able to find a trichologist near you?
Afope Atoyebi am coming to you. I am not looking for another because you came highly recommended so for me all roads leads to you
Thank you my hair is thinning but I have been growing it for two years ..... so am guessing I notice it more now it’s not short ..... new sub thank you 🙏 xx

Thanks Michelle! Outside of for clinical formulations for special conditions, I’m not a fan. I don’t know that it’s necessary.

Thank you Fops very informative and timely 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
Yaaay! Glad it was helpful!
What if some of the shed hair with the bulb are shorter than my actual hair length. Shouldn't shed hair be the same length as your hair
But if all your strands are in slightly different growth cycles, wont they be a different length
Bravo! A+ content per usual 👏🏽
Ah, thank you!

I have burning inflammation on my scalp for 2 yrs. Been too see a Dermatologist and Famiky doctor she sees nothing wrong with my scalp but gave me a Shampoo to use for 4 weeks 2xs per week. Still having the issue. Should I see another doctor or Tricologist?
Missing you❤
Is there any way to prolong the anagen phase?
Yes an no, I think this is largely determined by genetics, but there are things you can do to maximise that time. I mention one of these tips in this video - ruclips.net/video/YCbMcJTUWRM/видео.html
I don’t know if I’m noticing hair loss or what but my hair just sheds at the bottom? Could someone please help me?
I love your channel! Can you make a video on Emu oil for hair growth?
I can certainly put it in my requested video suggestions pipeline - perhaps along with other oils?
That's will be great!! Thank you so much. I'm battling with a lot of shedding, breakage, frizz and I think inflammation of the scalp. I don't know what to do. Dermatologists said its normal, I get the same answer......aging. I'm in my mid 40s
Very informative. Thanks for sharing.
Canada❤😊👍
My pleasure! 🥰🙏🏽
OK your hair is a very tight texture, and mine is longer... so your pompom looks very small compared to mine but mine is about the size of your 8 days, within 2 days 😔
Will hair shed more if you’re transitioning to natural?
It won’t shed more - but it’s possible that it will break more due to the manipulation of the different textures, and the fragility at the like of demarcation between the two.
I experienced a lot of breakage when transitioning because each hair texture needed different care
Ok so I assume then if you have a hormone imbalance that caused excess hair loss, or a time of stress that's caused more hair loss, then that would mean you're losing more than 15% of your hair at one time and I'd assume once you got hormones and stress under control that it would throw off this percentage for the rest of your life?
Aha I commented too soon you covered this!
