New Hair Growing!

by Nat
(Australia)

Hi Sheree. Quick update – I'll email some pics, but hair still has lots of fine new hair growing. Still not full scalp covering or very thick – I have been doing diet for 8 months now which comes naturally to me. I could probably amp up the green veges but all in all I'm doing well.


I'm good and still 100% on the Healthy Diet Paradise. I really love your work and truly believe my hair will come back, it's just a matter of time

I think since my hair loss has been for 13 years, it will just take longer for my body to recover, Your thoughts?

Anyway, I just wanted to know whether you think using Minoxidil would be a good idea to help with my hair resolving as well as your diet, or should I not go near the stuff?? I'm a bit unsure and thought perhaps I should just wait at least a year for the diet to see just how much better my hair becomes. What do you think??

Anyway would love to hear from you – love Nat

The last 3 photos show little bits coming through my part line

What do you think of my pictures? Did my hair look like yours did before yours grew back??

 Minoxidil (Rogaine's Side Effects)
by: Sheree

Nat, I missed you!

I'm looking at your pictures. This is eight months in. Your hair is way thicker than in the before pictures. I looked at your before pictures a few days ago. There is a huge difference.

In the picture taken from the back with the two braids, your hair looks really beautiful and healthy.

Nat, I think your situation will take a year and a half to fully resolve, like mine did. Look at how fast the eight months went by. 18 months will go by in a flash.

Minoxidil Has Scary Side Effects

I would stay away from Minoxidil. Another reader was telling me some scary things about it. There's a warning on the package that says that while using Minoxidil, some people may experience excessive shedding before their hair starts to re-grow again. So in other words, Minoxidil will cycle your hair into a shedding phase.

There are people who are devastated by this. One reader said her hair completely fell out with Rogaine.

Here's the link. It's an October 13th submission.

Read About Rogaine's Side Effects Here

Nat, let's keep it 100 percent natural. This is working for you, and I don't want to rock the boat. You're doing great, Nat.

I'm extremely excited for you. You have the discipline, the drive, the courage, the stamina and the patience. You believed in it, and now it's working for you. Congratulations, Nat.

I believe that everything happens for a reason. You are a beacon of light spreading hope to people suffering with hair loss. You are such a shining example to others, and you've given hope to thousands of people. I love you for that.

Thank you for these pictures. I will cherish them.

Love,

Sheree

 Vital Greens
by: Anonymous

Hi Sheree,

I love your blog and your website!!! thank you so much for sharing these.. you are amazing and a wonderful person.
I want to ask you if when starting the Hair Loss Diet, is it OK to consume first thing in the morning Vital Greens powder? It is a powder form 'super food' powder that includes 75 appox vitamins and minerals and enzymes for overall internal health.
Also, in Australia, Fusion Health for hair health is extremely popular, and I have seen increased hair health from taking this.. Do you recommend that I can still take these? They are fully recommended by a naturopath and very good at restoring hair loss etc. It is based on chinese herbal medicine. I am just asking because I am curious what other supplements and or/ herbs people take that have success with the Hair Loss Diet?
Thank you so much for your time on this, you are a God Send, and I truely mean that.
I started the hair loss diet today! one day in... haha.
I will not give up.
lots of smiles & positive energy!!!

 Vital Greens and Fusion Hair Product
by: Sheree

Hello there!

Thank you for your wonderful comments. I have to pinch myself every single day, because I cannot believe how lucky I am to do this job!

You asked about vital greens and hair fusion. I believe the vital greens and hair fusion are great. The only thing I would watch out for is allowing them to take over for your primary nutrition. Supplements of any kind cannot take the place of food. But in general, as supplements, they're wonderful.

The trick to the hair loss diet is to eat living food compounds. If you're consuming powder, it could be synthetic vitamins. It's very difficult to isolate natural, living enzymes. So I would tend to think that supplements like this should be purely supplemental and not your primary source of nutrition.

Just remember to eat natural, whole living foods at every meal. If it comes out of a box, reject it. If it comes out of the ground in its whole form, embrace it.

Good luck to you!

Love,

Sheree

Nat's Stunning Hair Regrowth Before and After Photographs

by Nat
(Australia)

Before Picture From June 2012.

Before Picture From June 2012.


These are pictures of Nat's hair re-growth for the last 10 months. Natalie stuck by this diet. She asked questions, and she stuck to her guns. I am extremely proud of her. This is a gift you give yourself, and Nat did this herself.

Her hair recovery has been very steady. She is ten months on the hair loss diet. From the pattern of her re-growth, we expect it to take possibly another year for her hair to become very thick.

Congratulations, Nat.

You are such an inspiration.

I love you like a mother hen!

by: Anonymous

Thank you Nat for sharing your before and after pictures. I recently joined this network and I look forward to results like yours. I haven't started the complete diet yet, but I have stopped eating sugar, which is huge for me and I am watching my glycemic intake. You have given me the idea of taking photos so that I can see the changes in my hair growth and perhaps one day I can inspire someone the way that you have. Great job! I'm so glad you are staying away from the chemical growth products. It's chemicals that got us into this fix in the first place, right. Your hair looks beautiful. Continued success!

 Wow
by: Jennifer

This is truly amazing. I have been visiting this website for over a year wondering if I can do this or if it actually works. Your hard work and pictures have have convinced me I can do this and that it works. Thank you Nat for posting and to Sheree for all the information

 Of Course it Works!!!
by: Sheree

Hi Jennifer,

Yes, the diet works 100%. Hair loss is an environmental issue. And the more feedback I get from our visitors, the more we understand.

Nat was the first advanced case we've seen reverse, and many people have followed in her footsteps. She is such a powerful example of how the human spirit can triumph over anything.

Good luck to you.

Love,

Sheree

Nat's Before Picture (June of 2012)

Nat's Before Picture (June of 2012)

This is my favorite photograph, because you can see the steady rate of growth. Nat's hair is much thicker around the center of her head. In the before photograph, her part is jagged and uneven. In the after photographs, the part line in the middle is normalized. In the after photographs, her hair is much thicker and has a very soft, healthy, silky texture.

I'm Seeing Hair Growth!

Hi Sheree. I found baby hair growing along the hair line. I'm excited to see 2 inches of fine hair on the top which is very fine growth. It is in small numbers, but I'm hopeful that my hair becomes thick sooner.

So far my hair fall is reduced to 30%..i can say it is less than 40 strands of hair, but i see my hair is breaking in between which is less severe. Are there any hair masks?

I completely avoided processed foods and sugar. I'm taking eggs regularly and I'm not so regular in having vegetables except carrots. I'm taking hair, nail and skin supplements.

When I put egg mask on my hair, I see more hair is clogging up in the tub. Can you help me with this?

 Vegetables Will Speed Hair Growth
by: Sheree

I would like to congratulate you on your success with your hair. This is the very beginning of your journey toward full hair restoration.

Okay. You've stated that you're not taking vegetables regularly except carrots, and you're hair is still responding to the diet. This is an excellent sign.

Just think if you increased your vegetable intake to twice per day. That alone would dramatically increase the rate of hair growth. This will also thicken your hair as well.

I'm not currently aware of any masks that would slow down your hair loss. I believe that the cycle will stop on its own.

Some of our visitors have shed their hair while noticing it was growing back at the same time. And they were just fine.

A little more patience, and your hair will become a lot thicker. Just give it a few more months. If you've had extensive hair loss, it's going to take considerable time.

Best Regards,

Sheree

 Sugar in Seasonings
by: Mike

I've been on the diet for about 8 months now and I'm seeing results. I recently noticed that the seasoning mix i use with my chicken has sugar listed as one of the last components. other components are herbs, dried vegetables..etc.. Will this hurt or will it not since I'm adding it to protein and usually eat vegetables with it? I have used this seasoning for about 2 months now but now that I'm aware of it I switched to a different brand.

 Sugar is in Everything!
by: Sheree

It's very true that seasonings have sugar. The tiny amounts of sugar in seasoning will not hurt your diet. I use Lawry's Seasoned Salt, and it contains a small amount of sugar.

Sugar is in everything, even salt in the form of dextrose. Since you're eliminating the vast majority of sugar from your diet, your body will have no trouble at all handing the tiny amounts of sugar in seasonings!

And by the way, congratulations. Great news on your hair! Do you have any before and after pictures?

 Nat's Hair is Getting Thick!
by: Sheree

Nat, I was so happy when I saw these pictures. What a miracle you are. Pat yourself squarely on the back. You did it! You take my breath away.
I got choked up when I saw the before and after pictures. I get really emotional.

I'm going to organize these and post them in order of the date. I had a little trouble downloading them because I didn't have the proper windows version. So now that I fixed that, I'm going to post them in the hair regrowth success forum under at least three submissions.

By the way, Nat, your hair is just gorgeous. It's thickening up beautifully. Way to go!!!!!!

I'm Noticing Re-Growth!!!

by Natalie
(australia)

Hi Sheree. It's Nat again!! I wanted to mention that I have really fine baby white hairs around my hairline that I don't recall noticing before. I used to have a devil's peak when I was younger but then it was more of an angel's peak as in just straight across. However, now the devils peak looks like it is there but very fine blond hairs.

I put mascara on them, and they look like they used to when I had this peak of brown hair. Could this too be a sign on regrowth? - is it likely that the hairline comes in first before all over scalp regrowth?

Also, could it be that my hair regrowth will take more than five months to start improving and not as early as some other people?

Thanks Sheree

Love Nat

 WOW!! HAIR LOSS SUCCESS FOR NAT AT LAST!!
by: Sheree

Natalie,

The growth at your hair line that you described is right on target. Nat, that is wonderful news. You warmed my heart with that last post. They always say it's darkest before dawn. The sun is now rising for you.

I'm so excited for you. When I read your post, I started crying tears of joy. I'm jumping over the moon.

I felt it deep in my heart. You only had to see it for yourself. It's working for you too. Your patience has paid off. I will sleep good tonight.

Nature has made her appearance for you. Now, she takes over from here. When you watch your hair growing in even more, you will have an innate understanding of the connection to diet and hair loss.

All we had to do was wait. Your situation took a little bit longer, because it's been going on for a long time. Now the speed of the growth of your hair will come in faster. Keep up the good work, sweetie. I'm as proud as a peacock.

I Have A Hair Line Question

by Natalie
(Australia)

Hi, Sheree, it's Nat. My hairline seems to be really growing in a lot quicker than the hair on top of head. I have a lot of new fine hairs around the hairline. Did you find that your hairline grew in quicker than your top hair?

Also, I'm still learning to eat the right food, and I'm cooking a lot more than I used to. I find the diet to be much easier. I don't miss the sugar at all.

Love

Nat

 The Hair Line Grows Back First!
by: Sheree

Nat, I missed you!

Yes, my hair line grew in first. My theory is that since that's the first section to fall out, then that's going to be the first section to grow back in.

And now that you're seeing such rapid re-growth, you can expect to see the rest of your hair quickly growing back as well. You are now in the rapid re-growth zone.

Nat, I'm so glad you're getting excellent results.
I'm super excited for you.

Congratulations, Nat!

 How long were your hair follicles dormant?
by: Sylvia

Hi nat. This is a question that perhaps sheree can also answer as she regrew her hair. Is there a time limit that one has to reactivate dormant hair follicles? I have read several websites saying that if hair is not regrown in one year or four years (the info varies) then the follicle can never be reactivated. Is this true?
Jul 21, 2012
 Dormant Hair Follicles Can Reactivate at Any Time
by: Sheree

Hi, Sylvia,

Nat can also answer this question. (Hi, Nat!)

There's no time limit to re-grow your hair. My follicles were dormant for a total of about four years. I remember clearly when I finally admitted to myself that my hair was falling out. I remember I looked at videotape of myself pushing my daughter in her stroller, and I realized that had a receding hair line for longer than I thought.

Also, Nat's hair loss went on for 12 or 13 years. And hers is already growing back. Hers took a while because the hair loss had been going on for about 12 to 13 years.

Let me know if that answers your question.

Warmest Regards,

Sheree

Jul 21, 2012
 Thanks!
by: Sylvia

Yes, it does answer my question, thank you! I have been losing hair progressively for a few years now and now that I look back, I realise that it started a few years after I began including tons of junk food, sugar and a moderate amount of alcohol in my diet. I Have begun a low gi lifestyle, I do stumble here and there but I think I have come a long way since day one! Thanks for the info and support.

 Nat's Hair is Growing Back in Beautifully
by: Sheree

Hello, Nat,

I can finally see you. Now, when I get your letters, I can attach a face to the name.

You are an incredibly beautiful woman. And your children are drop dead gorgeous.

I can definitely see a really big difference in your hair. Your hair is thicker, healthier and has a lot more shine. The small hairs that are poking up are definitely new hairs. You are very lucky. Month after month, this new growth will be very steady.

In one of the pictures, the front hair line is a lot thicker as well. The hair line is light blonde and has a very pretty curve to it.

Apparently, your hair line is growing the fastest. My theory is that since the hair line is the first to fall out, that's where the new most new growth will be seen first.

You are clearly making steady progress. Congratulations on your new growth, Nat. You deserve this.

Love Sheree

small hairs growing up

small hairs growing up

Hi, Sheree. Here are pics of the really small hairs that are growing in my part line - also couple of other pics for you and one of me and my two beautiful children who are 4.5 and 2.

I would love to know your thoughts on my hair and if you can make anything out of that small stick up growthy bits - hard to see but there are so so many of these as I got my husband to check - they are noticeable. When I comb the rest of my hair down hard, they stick up through.

Love Nat

Nat,

Thank you so much for these pictures. I am so grateful to you for this submission.

These photographs are excellent. This one close-up of your new hair is perfection. You can clearly see the new growth coming in on top. It's peeking right through there.

This is so amazing that it gives me chills. What a miracle. Nat, aren't you like super excited?
You made my day. I'm just so blown away.

Natalie, you stuck it out even when it was hard, and you didn't quit. You are a very strong young woman.

Thank you so much, Nat!

 Family
by: Cecelia

Dear Nat,

I was very touched by the photo of you and your smiling children. What a beautiful family you have! I'm writing to ask how your change in diet affected your family. Did/do you prepare separate meals for yourself and your husband and children, or do you all eat the same things?

While I'm willing to eat a fairly strict diet myself, I'm engaged to a man who would like an occasional dish of pasta or breaded chicken. I miss sharing exotic or comfort-food based meals with him. Neither of us are epicures, but I miss the warm, homey feeling of baking an apple pie for him in the autumn, or going out for ice cream together in the summer.

Can you comment on the way your diet has affected your family and home life? My hair is important to me. It's so important that I'm losing sleep and having melt downs because it's loss is so traumatic. But I want my life to be about more than myself, and, so far, adhering to a restrictive diet seems to undermine my relationships which are the very things I feel like I want to renew myself (and my hair) for.

So, how did you do it? What role did your family play in this transformative experience?

Thank you for your insights,

Cecelia
