Im not literally going bald, but I am losing hair at a crazy rate, and i can see that the parting line is starting to get wider. Alhamdulilah though my hair is very thick, and probably much healthier and thicker than most people I know. Its in the genes, we all have good hair. But the blessing is running out fast so I am pretty worried.

I'm trying to do it every weekend, but have not yet noticed any change. Also, please, someone help if you have any other tips to offer!
that was the clincher when it came to unhijabifying. though..I'm not gonna lie, there were more superficial reasons.

I've heard you can use crisco for frosting but I've only tried butter.

well she'd do it every time she washed her hair. the night before and right after. if it's genetic than you might have to use something like rogaine. Allahu Alim though

I think I'm quite low on iron, could that be the problem? I keep thinking I should start taking it but have never really gotten around to it. Anyway, I will be sure to start tonight even, inshAllah. Thanks.
Um, don't self-diagnose.
If you think you need to start taking an iron supplement, then go see your doctor first and get tested.

I did get tested for it a few months ago. And I was told I was low in iron. But I never got around to getting any

I'm on hold for something that I'm not really sure is worth all the frustration anymore. Ughhh, impatience!

Other than that, I just moved for the millionth time and I'm officially sick of moving and having to explain my life story to everyone and their mom. It's really not that interesting.
