Peppermint was the first smell I started to sense. I was rotating that, eucalyptus, orange, lemongrass, tea tree, cedarwood, and lavendar. It came back completely after a few months. I will say there are a couple of things that don't smell exactly the same as they used to but not anything signifcant enough to be bothered by.

Hey Jess, your hair has definitely changed. However, your new growth looks thicker. So, I think you are on track for healthy hair again. You had to plan a wedding, had COVID, and had to move into a new home. Stress mixed COVID might have did your hair like that. Take it easy, and take care. ❤

Yep, I went thru the same thing. I did it by pressing my hair 3 times and I lost my curl pattern. I held on for a while, tried everything you did, got 30% curl patter back but that it. Once my new growth got almost armpit length, I had my girl cut off the raggedy ends (she’s a licensed beautician) and been in braids ever since to not shed tears looking at armpit length instead of mid back. I’m glad I did it, no regrets, hair is growing mad crazy, will be mid back again by the end of 2022 with only one texture. My Advice……..Once you know how to retain length and keep hair moisturized and healthy it’s ok to cut and start over. Go ahead and cut, IT WILL grow back fast.

It's the bobble head moment for me 🤣😂🤣 I love your new bob Jess!!! You make me want to book my appointment because You make it look so good!

I think it’s Dreads!! Yes can’t wait to see! Our hair textures are similar and I’ve been back and forth with the idea so I’m excited to see them on you, hopefully.

Hi Jess, i barely comment on videos but i feel like i need to share this with you, YOU ARE NOT ALONE. March 2022 i had to do my fourth big chop reluntly due to color damamge and i felt so sad and insecure being back to the akward length. Sometimes i still regret it but my hair is growing back already at its healthy state which gives me the strength to continue my natural hair journey. I remember that when i had my third bigchop due to heat damage, my hair was the same length as yours, so i would always watch your hair videos to remind me of how long my hair would be if i didn't flat iron it and it would hurt so badly. I have had to many stepbacks due to heat, color damage, stress and negligence, that sometimes i feel like i will never reach my hair goal. But time,patience and consistency are the keys, we just need to stay focused and stay away from anything that can interrupt our journey again. Besides, many hair influencers (Isimeme, Mercy, faceovermatter, etc) are having setbacks and bigchops this year, so it is nice to know that there are others going through the same thing and they are also sharing tips on how they are recovering their hair. I will be here watching your hair recovery journey as i am also in the same journey. Cheers.

The way the strands are, in that one area, it looks like it could be heat damage, cause the strands looked more "relaxed" in that one area and your hair has grown since you straightened it. Just a guess, based on the shot, but it doesn't look bad tho🤷🏽‍♀️ we only know because you showed us. You look good, girl! 🦋

Kudos to you for listening to your stylist.. And to her for not just saying okay to whatever you ask for knowing it would make things worse.

I think the two of you are adorable. You are the reason I started watching your videos. People are going to hate on you even if you are perfect. I've been married 35yrs and my husband cooks for me even if I haven't done a damn thing all day but guess what it's no bodies business but ours. Continue to be who you are and please do not worry about what people say they are just jealous.

Tea rinses helps with itching and shedding. Try green and cloves with neem teas. Also invest in an electric scalp massager. If you use as clarifying shampoo, use the scalp massager while the shampoo is still in. Three times a week, use an oil with rosemary and massage your scalp with the oil a minimum of 3 times a week. Also eliminate stress. You were stressed before the wedding. Don't cut just yet.

It looks like signs of heat damage, or your curl pattern has loosened a lot. My hair is like that in the front. I haven't dyed my hair, but I have blown dry, and straightened it several times. I also had Covid and it really went crazy after that. I had so much inflammation in my body from Covid including on my scalp. It was so bad I went to a Dermatologist. She put me on antibiotics and I have to wash my hair 3 times a week with this prescription shampoo. It itching on my scalp was crazy also. The treatment is working.

If you are itching that bad and you hair is thinning a lot than it's iron deficiency. Have your iron level checked.

I'm excited for the journey though. I officially joined the channel when you cut your color out and the journey was great.

I honestly believe it's the covid. My hair was fine prior to contracting the virus. One to 2 months later, I noticed severe shedding, edges started thinning, bald spots in few places of my head. My stress level has been high too so that's another thing. Presently, I'm using my zinc, iron , B and D vitamins; and I'll work on managing my stress. Perhaps that should help ease the telogen effluvium ( severe shedding). But I'm definitely not shaving my head.

I had two kids back to back so I’m sure that had a lot to do with my massive hair loss.

Two years of back to back stressors,traumas, and deaths has resulted in vey thin hair. I also found out my Vitamin D is low and that could cause the hair loss. We have to take care of ourselves as much as we can.

Jess, I’m sorry about what happened to your hair! I can relate completely. This same thing happened to my hair and I had to do a big chop #2 about 6 months ago. It happened right after I dyed my hair black and straightened it the next week. I wouldn’t count the black box dye out and combo of straightening natural hair especially if it’s not used to that kind of stress. My problems started about 2 months later I could notice the thinning. Better days are ahead though ♥️

It has to do with a high temp, but also the body pulls from everywhere to fight off the virus. And that includes hair for both women and men. But it's more noticeable for women obviously. So my bet is definitely Covid, I'm sorry hunni.

I know you said you're not ready but I think you should do the big chop and keep the new growth than holding on to the hair that is no longer serving you for another 6 months, as it might start to go up the hair shaft to your new growth. Btw you are beautifullll. Congratulations to your new season, marriage and so on, maybe your hair is reflecting the new changes and a new hair cut could be part of the new start. There's nothing wrong with starting again, your a champ and your hair grows very fast and healthy and luscious and this time next year, your hair will be grown back to shoulder length and better.

Gurl…. I feel your struggle …. We have the same hair texture … my hair started thinning just like yours …so I loc’d my hair and it has been the best thing… hair thick and healthy !

You know before you big chop, try a protein treatment and see how that helps. Your hair can bounce back, hang in there!

Covid hair loss is real. I got like 3 inches of my hair cut in May and I’m so happy I did. It’s growing back healthy again.

Same. Me too. I’m so happy I had it cut. They made the biggest difference in the world 🥰🫶🏽

I remember being in this position in 2019 and I needed to big chop but was so afraid of having short hair. I was fed up and just did it and it was the best decision I ever made. It’s 2022 and I keep it short still. Always do what works best for you and what you feel most comfortable with but I promise, short hair is not as bad as you think it will be. Best of luck on your healthy hair journey. My hair loss was related to severe anemia. I remember in earlier videos you mentioned having low iron. Check that out as well because anemia can cause hair loss/thinning of the hair.

Hey ! I’m sorry you are going through this. I pray God gives you wisdom and will return the glory to your hair ! Pray for your hair it works 😇🥰

Hey Jess! What happened to your edges? I must’ve missed you talking about it. I’m also growing my edges out! Good luck girl

Same!!

You could big chop now and wear you hair blown out. Short straight hair is so cute 🥰. I miss my short styles sometimes. I'm still on my journey, but I'll cut it again for the short look. I love the style at the end. Will be doing that under my wig next month. Thanks for sharing.

It's giving needing a texture release. Love ❤ u Jess, keep pushing through.

That’s heat damage babe. It’s happened to me every single time I flat ironed my hair. I notice it months later. Flat ironing my hair literally means I have to start over.

Looks a lot like heat damage. The covid hair loss I’ve seen looks more similar to postpartum. But I mean if you want to cut there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that.

I know it's been two weeks but what would you recommend for someone who has heat damage? I also need to strip my hair strands and I'm not sure what to use. I have thick 4c hair :) And I already trimmed the damaged ends.

@@bobatearoar If you need a stripping shampoo, I recommend Come Clean by Kinky Curly and for the heat damage, try to add more protein products in your regimen

Omg girl!!!!!! Everything you’re saying is exactly what I’m going through but I got breakage in the front and the back smh. I do also think it’s Covid plus the stress I’ve had. I’ve been doing braids myself for less tension but it’s still feels like my hair is fragile. Def thought about chopping it all off but I’m scared lol. I’ll def be taking this journey with you so please post more lol

I love your hair!

I literally just went through the same thing. After 10 years of beautiful healthy hair I ended up having to do a big chop. I just decided to keep it short and now its super healthy.

Girl you better pop some gel on that hair put it in a bun and call it a day, it will give all that it needs to give, until you decide to big chop or not.
