Katnroyal 225 Posted November 15, 2012 Hair loss is going to happen, however; you can take precautions to slow down the hair loss, and help it regrow faster. I do the following: I make sure I meet my daily Protein goals, I take a Biotin pill every night, I use Nioxin Shampoo, and I don't use heat or chemicals on my hair. I started taking biotin about week three, and have had some hair loss starting about month 3 I am currently 5 months out and I am seeing less and less hair loss. Don't freak out about it, it will grow back! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
moniq22 12 Posted November 15, 2012 Thanks... I'm trying not to freak out (not doing an amazing job so far i know) my cousins have the same nut that I do and are taking what she sent me which is zinc + biotin+ nutricap and they have barely had any Hair loss and they are in month 6 almost month 7 I think so I hope it works for me too!!!
