I never thought I'd be the person writing one of these posts. ‎ But after what happened at my hair appointment last month… ‎ I think every woman on Ozempic, Mounjaro, or Wegovy needs to read this. ‎ Eight months ago I started finding clumps of hair on my pillow. ‎ Not a few strands. Clumps. ‎ Like someone reached up and pulled a handful out while I was sleeping. ‎ I'd been on Mounjaro for about 9 months. Down 52 pounds. ‎ I finally felt like myself again. ‎ I started taking selfies again and my confidence was coming back. ‎ Then the shedding started. ‎ At first I told myself it was normal. ‎ Google said rapid weight loss causes temporary shedding. ‎ My doctor said "eat more protein." ‎ So I ate more protein. ‎ 90 grams a day. Tracked it in an app and everything. ‎ But the shedding got worse. ‎ By month 3 I was brushing my hair over the bathroom trash can ‎ because I couldn't watch it go down the drain anymore. ‎ My part got wider. ‎ I could see my scalp under certain lighting. ‎ My ponytail went from wrapping twice to wrapping four times. ‎ I stopped wearing my hair down. ‎ I stopped taking photos. ‎ And I even turned my camera off during work calls… ‎ So I did what every woman in my situation does. ‎ I went on a supplement spree. ‎ Biotin first. ‎ I took it every morning for 3 month. ‎ Nothing. ‎ Then collagen. ‎ I Tried the powder & the capsules. ‎ 2 different brands, 6 months in. ‎ And couldn't see any difference. ‎ Then my sister said "try Nutrafol, it's different. it targets stress hormones." ‎ Another $79 a month. ‎ I took it for 2 months. ‎ Checking my brush every morning like I was reading a pregnancy test. ‎ Nothing. ‎ Then my doctor suggested minoxidil. ‎ Rubbed it into my scalp twice a day for around 6 weeks. ‎ It grew hair on my upper lip. ‎ But not on my head. ‎ I wish I was joking…. ‎ By this point I had an entire shelf under my bathroom sink that looked like a supplement graveyard. ‎ Bottles and jars and powders and droppers. ‎ I added it up one night. ‎ Over $1,100. ‎ On products that all promised the same thing and all did the same thing. ‎ Nothing. ‎ I even started looking at wigs. ‎ They cost $3,000 for a decent one. ‎ I sat at my kitchen table pricing human hair wigs at midnight and realized I was crying. ‎ That's rock bottom. ‎ When you're crying over wig prices at midnight because you finally lost the weight and now you're losing your hair and you feel like you have to choose between your body and your head. ‎ I was at my hairdresser a few weeks later. ‎ She was working near my crown when she stopped and put down her comb. ‎ "You're the 3rd client I've seen with the exact same thing." ‎ "You'vre tried everything. But nothing seems to be working." ‎ I asked her what the other women were doing about it. ‎ She said something I will never forget. ‎ "They stopped treating it like a nutrition problem." ‎ I didn't understand. ‎ She explained it like someone who's watched this play out across dozens of clients. ‎ "That GLP-1 medications can cause your body to produce more of a hormone called DHT." ‎ "And DHT doesn't just make your hair weak. It attacks your hair follicle from the root." ‎ It suffocates your hair follicles ‎ And every single supplement I was taking… ‎ The biotin. ‎ The collagen. ‎ The Nutrafol. ‎ The Viviscal… ‎ All of them were designed to do one thing. ‎ Which is to feed your hair. ‎ More protein. ‎ More vitamins. ‎ More building blocks… ‎ But not a single one of them was stopping what was attacking it. ‎ My hairdresser told me what her other clients had switched to. ‎ A gummy that does two things in a specific order. ‎ First it blocks the DHT that's attacking your follicles. ‎ Then it feeds them the nutrition they need to grow. ‎ Protect first. ‎ Then feed. ‎ Every other supplement skips step 1 and goes straight to step 2. ‎ That's why none of them work for GLP-1 hair loss. ‎ I ordered it that night. ‎ Week 1. Nothing. ‎ Week 2. Maybe slightly less hair in the drain. ‎ I told myself that maybe I'm just imagining things. ‎ Week 3. I wasn't imagining it. ‎ I ran my fingers through my hair over the sink. ‎ Something I hadn't done in almost a year because I was afraid of what would come out. ‎ 4 or 5 strands. ‎ That's it. ‎ Not a clump. ‎ Not a handful. ‎ Just a couple strands. ‎ I didn't tell anyone yet. ‎ By week 4, my husband looked up from dinner and said "your hair looks thicker." ‎ He didn't know I was taking anything. ‎ He just noticed, and my husband who never notices anything 🤣 ‎ Now by Month 2, i noticed baby hairs everywhere along my hairline and along my part. ‎ Little stubborn sprouts in places that had been thinning for over a year. ‎ I went back to my hairdresser. The same woman who put down her comb two months ago was now pulling sections up near my roots going ‎ "SEE?? I told you!!" and showed me new growth in the mirror. ‎ By month 5, I'm still on Mounjaro. ‎ Still losing weight. ‎ Still hitting my goals. 💪 ‎ And my hair is thicker than it's been since before I started my medication. ‎ I did not have to choose. ‎ So here's why I'm writing this. ‎ Since this happened I've told every woman I know who's on a GLP-1. ‎ My sister ordered the same night I told her. ‎ My friend Sarah from work ordered the next morning. ‎ A friend from my gym who was dealing with the same thing ordered it also. ‎ Because here's the truth. ‎ You'll try the biotin. ‎ You'll try collagen. ‎ You'll try whatever your doctor suggests or whatever has good reviews on Amazon. ‎ And none of it will work. ‎ Because they're built for a problem you don't have. ‎ Your hair isn't falling out because it's hungry for vitamins. ‎ It's falling out because something is attacking it. ‎ And until you stop the attack, no amount of feeding will help. ‎ I wasted 9 months and over $1,100 learning that the hard way. ‎ You don't have to. ‎ A year ago, my friend could have told me about DHT and I would have saved all that money and all that hair and all those nights crying on the bathroom floor. ‎ Nobody told me. ‎ Now I'm telling you. ‎ Don't wait 9 months like I did. ‎ Don't waste another dollar on supplements that can't fix what's actually happening. ‎ Don't sit at your kitchen table at midnight pricing wigs. ‎ Get ahead of it now. Not tomorrow ‎ Because every month you spend feeding hair that's under attack is a month of shedding you can't get back. ‎ I linked the exact gummies below. ‎ The same ones my hairdresser recommended. ‎ The same ones that worked for her other clients. ‎ And the same ones that finally worked for me!! ‎ 👉 https://balmbare.com/pages/new-revive-gummies ‎ P.S. — My only regret is not finding this sooner. Every month I spent on biotin and collagen was a month my follicles were still under attack. If I'd known about DHT six months earlier, I wouldn't have lost half my hair first. ‎ P.P.S. Give it at least 3 weeks before you judge it. That's when I started noticing the shedding slow down. By month 2 is when the baby hairs showed up. It's not overnight. But it's real. And your hairdresser will notice before you do 😊
