Temporary Solution to hair-loss

Exactly 6 months after giving birth to my lil one, I experienced hair loss. It must have started off gradually and I thought then that it was "normal" to experience hair loss after childbirth. But I am still having this problem and my son just turned 2!!!!
I used to experience heavy hair loss every single time I washed my hair. They come off in big bunches! Scary! Every single time I brush my hair, sure there will be at least 5-6 strands of hair on my comb, plus another 5-6 strands on the floor. Then when I tie my hair after combing, a few more will drop off. And to untie my hair, a few more will stuck on my hairband. And if I tie & untie my hair say 5 times a day .. I dont even dare do the calculations !!!

My SIL recommended me to use Rene Furterer Hair Tonic from Sasa but Sasa Malaysia does not import them. So I ended up buying A'Kin shampoo & conditioner for sensitive scalp.

I have now used up about half a bottle. I still experience hair dropping while I wash it but far less. When I dry my hair and comb it, there is usually about 2-3 strands of hair on my comb and say 1-2 strands of hair on my hairband. I feel much better now. My hair feels good! It is soft and manageable too probably due to the conditioner.

I paid RM56 for both the shampoo & conditioner after a 31% discount. Normal price is RM40 for each of them. I will continue using it see if can help me solve my hair-loss problem.

If you guys have any sure-works solutions for hair-loss, please do share it with me please ... please ... please.

The Beginning ...


I really need to find a good reason to start this blog .. I mean why start one when you dont have something solid to share right?

Well, yeah, life is good. I love my hubby. He's a great guy. We both love our little one like crazy. Yeah he can be quite a handful but we still love him dearly. He means the world to us, really.

So what the problem you ask. I really dont know actually. You see, life changed 180 degrees for me when our little one came along. We planned for everything prior to him arriving but it kinda takes a toll on me.

I am fine actually. Emotionally. I dont really feel terrible but sometimes I feel the stress physically. I feel tired. Exhausted. No energy even to walk in the mall sometimes. 30 mins in Mid Valley Megamall is enough to send me home with a pair of aching feet for 2 days! Seriously! And the hair losses, excessive weight gain, aching back, body aches all over ... I just feel different physically. I feel old.
