Hair Loss Extensions Possibly The struggle is real!!



Recommended Posts

So a few months ago I read someone posted this website for great extensions, they were not the Secret Extensions by Daisy Fuentes but very similar to these in which they have the string that attaches over your head and its hidden, I am not interested in clip on or weaved they apply more pressure to the follicles whereas these don't while we are going through our Hair loss issues..can anyone help me? Link me up the website and or suggestions...Thanks I would appreciate it...the Struggle is Real..

Babe hair Extensions are 100% good quality Remi Hair and they have the halo extensions. I have struggled with Hair loss due to my PCOS for years and I am preparing to lose more after surgery. I have always used the itip extensions by babe. They clamp on with a bead and have actually made my hair healthier and grow back because it prevents the heat from my straightener from touching my roots. I seriously could not make it without my extensions. Being a woman with extremely thin hair is not easy at all.

As first time user, do you think it is easy to put them in? I have thinning hair and I use to have super thick hair and it is upsetting. I just want my hair to look full again...

No problem at all! I would be lost without my extensions. I think you will start regaining confidence about your hair. I keep mine just a little longer than my regular hair but my purpose for them is to help with thickness :) good luck!

Sorry I don't check this often and hadn't seen your comment! They are not difficult at all to put in.. I watched several tutorials, however you may need an extra set of hands to help with the back of your head! You can usually get the stuff to do them at a local beauty supply store.

I know how terrible it feels to be balding, especially on top. One other thing that I swear by and use along side my extensions is hair fibers. They stick to your scalp and help cover the spots and help blend your hair better. I get mine from Sally's Beauty Supply but you can find them on Amazon as well. They made me feel like a woman again and helped cover one of my biggest insecurities. Good luck to you!!

If I were you, I would try to fibers first. If your problem is more on top and not the thickness. I have both (thinning top and extremely thin hair) but the fibers work wonders when my extensions are not in. I think you will really like them.

What do you use? I was just looking on Amazon and I read good reviews on Caboki?

I use Topix! Haven't ever heard of Caboki but I'm assuming they are similar and if they have good reviews it would be worth a try.

I have thick hair no loss on top only lack of strands on the ends...so just a need to for thickness on the ends

area, I wear clip on extensions on weekend for fun...but it will weigh the hair down and pull it off.. just a heads up! LOL.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
