I had very thick, relatively coarse, naturally wavy hair. Based on the handfuls of hair and the size of my braid, I would estimate that I've lost about half of my hair. Fortunately it has been all over, so I don't have any bald spots. I noticed an increase in hair loss after I started this journey in November. It continued through surgery and ramped up even more a few weeks ago. I know it isn't abnormal between the stress, the healing process, and nutrition issues, but it's still frustrating.
If you had hair loss, when did it level out and start to come back? I'm thinking of cutting a lot of mine off so the regrowth will blend better. I cut 6-8 inches a few weeks before my surgery, but I think it's time for another short cut.
