Does all or most of the hair you lose come from the top of the head or side or back. What is your experience?
I am sorry to seem obsessing about my hair, but for a long part of my life i thought it was all i had. Since i was fat. I am really not that vain.

Smile Hair

Usully from the crown of your head... the top. But really all that really notice are you and your hairdresser... really. (Maybe a significant other... maybe but not usually)

It depends..... really it does. Some folks/gals already had natural thinning of the hair related to health problems. Some people dont lose hair AT ALL! Some people lose it by the handfuls.... its the cruddy answer everyone hates hearing... but it depends. IF you are thinning already, a couple of hairs is going to look like your missing a bunch ... its all relative, and its temporary... it comes back... even more so... better hair in the long run!

Question But Curly Hair?

I've heard from other people that when you hair starts to come back, it may be more curly. I thought they were nuts. I didn't notice any hair loss. But, lo and behold, the hairs growing in right at the bottom of my scalp curl up. Weird science!

Curly, huh....we'll see about that. Maybe that's why I have that one hair that just wont lie flat! My hair is so ramrod straight that even the best perm couldn't take a curl! I've had 3 perms in my life and all the curls were gone in one week after each one. No Shirley Temple look for me.
