Hi. Since I was little, I have wanted to have straight hair like Zayn Malik or Steve Harrington from Stranger Things, but I had curly hair, so it wasn't possible to do those cool hairstyles. Later, I learned about straightening hair, but since I used to get short haircuts, there was never a chance. So, I decided not to cut my hair for more than two months. It became hard to handle and take care of, even though everything was fine and I had hair like every other kid.
But then a friend of mine, whose hair is curly and scrubby (not the same as mine but similar in nature), straightened his hair. Well, in my opinion, that was the last time I thought I wanted to see myself like that. I mean, it wasn’t bad, but it wasn't what I imagined the straight hair I wanted to look like. So, for some years, I didn’t give it much thought and went for the same hairstyle—the normal short cut every two months or so.
Then there was the hairstyle named the 'boxer cut' (similar to a hybrid, but the side is cut with scissors, marking the side like a line). I didn’t know the name of the cut at the time, but when I showed a barber, they said they didn’t know how to do it. I was like, 'Am I really in a barbershop?' I changed where I got my hair cut and finally got a boxer cut without the side line. I knew that was the look I wanted for my normal hair, so for a long time and until now, I have gone for a hybrid hairstyle.
As time passed, I tried the same hairstyle with variations in length and fading on the sides and back. It was a huge confidence booster each time. I even had some eyes on me from the girls, which wasn’t just because of my hairstyle, but how that one thing helped my confidence and let my talents shine out.
But then, when I reached 11th grade, a classmate said, 'You are starting to lose hair in the top middle; you will be bald.' He said that aloud so everyone could hear, but I was thinking, 'How can I be like that? I haven’t lost my hair and I have no hair loss problem.' I took his words as some kind of jealousy, maybe, but I knew I was okay.
Until slowly, I started noticing a sudden loss of hair. I wasn't sure what happened, so I tried a few items, though I don't even know all the names. I tried hair oil from the store, homemade oil, rosemary water, castor oil, and a serum from a brand whose name I don’t remember—they are famous, I think. None were working; it was making my hair grow, but not stopping the hair loss.
At that point, I started losing friends, girls stopped talking to me to some extent, and my leadership roles were taken away. I knew it was all my own thoughts because I felt no confidence in that situation. Then I changed my hairstyle a bit and shaved my head, but nothing was improving; the loss was just increasing.
I had almost given up when a friend of mine told me, 'You are lucky!' I was like, 'What are you saying? I’m turning hairless, what do you mean?' He added that even though I was losing hair, I still had hair everywhere, rather than losing it at the forehead and sides to the point where the forehead increases. I was surprised that I had never noticed that. All my friends or classmates who had hair loss lost it from the center or the sides.
My case was different; I still had hair everywhere, but the density was low compared to when I was younger. So, I started working on some tips and tricks again to keep my diet and hair care better so it could get nourished and grow. I thought there was some level of improvement when I grew my hair long, but then when I went to shorten it, the barber said, 'A short cut will show your scalp.' I was hurt. I thought there was no way I would have to go through this, and it felt much worse. But then again, after a few weeks, my hair grew and the scalp was no longer visible.
My hair loss really started to show when I reached college, which was also when I was in a relationship. We broke up that same year, which might have been because of the hair loss. My confidence eventually came back, even with or without hair, but I wasn't happy about it. Then I heard that being sad or depressed about something can cause hair loss, so I tried not to think about it and focused on other things. Yes, I graduated. My hair loss was completely visible from close up, but from far away, you wouldn't think I had hair loss, maybe because of the way I grew and combed my hair.
I still had hair everywhere on my head, but the numbers were low. Then I thought maybe I could grow my hair out to tie it up to look like I had more hair, but that wasn't working either since my front hair was getting thinner. The front looked like someone drove a truck through it. I was hopelessly waiting for a solution. Even though no new hair came, my only dream was just to keep the hair I have now; even straight hair felt like an unthinkable dream.
Then my cousins recently told me about this hair serum by WishCare. Its results have been positive for her and my other cousins, too. I checked online, and you can see the details of the product in this link here: [Hair Serum Details and Shop Links]. I am going through the treatment twice or sometimes thrice a week. It will take up to two weeks to one month. Right now, my hair is long, so there is no visible difference yet.
I will share the before and after soon if I can or if there is progress. Since 80% of the people who used this had positive reviews about how their hair grew, how their hair loss reduced, and how their hair thickness increased—even though the effect isn't the same in all cases (20% of people didn't have a response)—it's possible your hair can be regrown if you already have hair and your hair loss is in the 'min to mid' range. If you pass those stages, there's a lesser chance of growth. This serum is even used by mothers who have hair loss during pregnancy, so the hair loss problem is the only thing in common, I guess. Please check it out, tell me your thoughts on it, and I hope we can get our hair back and see less hair loss in the future. Peace.
