I am in my mid 70’s and have been coloring or highlighting my hair for probably 50+ years. Hair spray, styling, back combing, heat styling, and cutting. I started noticing thinning and all of this was taking its toll on my hair health. Last year I decided to make drastic changes and I stopped cutting, coloring and basically gave it a much needed rest. I can say that the improvement in about 8 months has been remarkable. You don’t realize how all of those things are affecting your hair. My hair has grown so much and I’m now sporting long hair in my 70’s with some natural silver highlights. My advice to you younger women is to start taking better care of yourselves and your hair while you can.

Sodium laureth/laurel sulfates are skin irritating emulsifiers. Ammonium laureth/laurel sulfates do not irritate the skin. Dishwashing detergents do not list there ingredients. You must call their 800 numbers to find the ones that are gentle to skin. Most skin products lists are on the container. Love,

What is your thoughts on the Monat hair care line? I partnered with this company for a vegan, naturally based, non-toxic product to use for me and my kids. I want to educate myself before talking about it. I would love your thoughts, opinions?

Please help. My hair has always been my pride and joy. I figured since it is pretty damn healthy, it could deal with some bleach damage. And I figured the master stylist who did all the color-corrections would know how much would be too much. I was wrong, and now I want to burst into tears every time I look at my hair or touch it. I just don’t know what to do. My hair has also NEVER been shorter than this and it breaks and falls out. What should I do to regrow hair?

In reply to Kenny. Which brand do you use?

This would probably work but I’ve just been using Biotin Shampoo. Really this stuff has worked very well. I had really thick hair but during the summer it goes frail. This shampoo did wonders for that because of the formula they use and the vitamins inside it. I highly recommend checking it out.

I also read that folks also had great results for using it on their face, for growing out even beards. 🙂

I have struggled with my hair for a long time now. I am quickly approaching my 40s and I have bad hair quality. Recently, I have also noticed that my hair has stopped growing as it used to. A few years ago I went to the salon on a monthly basis. Now, it takes me almost two months before I even need to cut my hair! I am desperate and I really need help right now. Hair is one of the most important parts of a woman and I don’t want to give up on this one. I went to the doctors but they didn’t found anything wrong with me. The exams I took showed that I am healthy and there’s no reason for this to even happen to me. Please, I really need hair advice urgently!!!!!!!!!!!!

My hair has always been my pride and joy. I figured since it is pretty damn healthy, it could deal with some extensions. I was wrong, and now I want to burst into tears every time I look at my natural hair. I just don’t know what to do. my hair has also NEVER been shorter than this and it breaks and falls out. What should i do to regrow hair?

I’m vegan and use only cruelty free vegan /vegetarian products, and my problem is that my hair grows too fast! It’s always super shiny, bouncy, and lightweight. I eat a lot of coconut oil, creamer, and milk. I suppose fast hair growth is a good problem to have. 😉

In reply to June Taylor. Incorrect. Sweet almond has very small molecules. Coconut oil is noted for entering the hair shaft.

Thanks for your recommendations and your information about why there is a common hair loss phase after pregnancy. I have always had a large amount of hair loss about 3 months after my pregnancies. I just had my 4th child two months ago and want to give a few things a try and see if I can decrease or stop the amount of hair that I loose. I am excited to try your gelatin hair treatment. I am also consuming much more gelatin in my diet these days. I have also encapsulated my placenta to aid in my milk production for breastfeeding but thought it might also minimize a bit of my hair loss if I were to take it periodically during the phase that I typically go through hair loss since the placenta contains the hormones which are shifting and diminishing after pregnancy. I will post again if I have success with this. Fingers crossed. 😉

In reply to Cat. You rinse with the Rosemary water how many times a week?

I’m a big fan of your site and natural remedies, I was wondering have you ever though about including some cruelty free options? this post in particular 4 out of 5 points involve killing animals, there are plenty of plant based foods high in protein, and gelatin is basically boiled up hooves, ligaments and tendons.

Hello! I don’t remember if I am suscribed to your awesome blog. Mad respect for having a hundred kids AND saving the world. I can only do one at a time. I am in Israel for a few months, orginially from the States. I have suffered brain injury in the past year, and have noticed that my fingernails and toenails seem deficient of some mineral. Putting coco oil on them helped, but that is not available like (everything) in the States. My search brought me to biotin, which I still wasn’t sure on which foods contain it and thought to check your site. I looked at the page you recommended regarding brain injuries (TBI) and was a bit surprised at how it is DEFINITELY more than peeling nails. (Duh). Is there a page where you have a list of foods (preferably not meat, but fish seafood and eggs I will eat) that I could use to see what I can acquire here in the Middle East? My funds are low or I would just order some biotin online or something. It’s not like there is a Whole Foods around every corner! I will continue my google searches, but I am terribly techno-limited (in my brain) and the less time I have in front of anything electrical, the better. Thank you so much!
