How I Stopped my Hair Loss - MASSIVE Hair Growth Update + Tips for Hair Growth

Today I'm sharing what I've done in the last several years to stop my hair loss and actually get new hair growth! Here's more info on the system I have used for over 2 years now: glnk.io/kx65/m... and if you use MARLENA at checkout, you will save money if you decide to try this system out too. This along with changing my diet and finding out my gut issues has been a life saver!
I've struggled with hair loss since about 2012 when my hair suddenly just fell out and I lost 50% of my hair. I saw many doctors and did enough tests to qualify as a science project.... I connected with IRestore to see if their system would work for me and after about 5-6 months of consistent use, saw good results! I also cleaned up my diet, saw holistic doctors to find out what nutrients I was missing, and I cut out starches and sugars. It took a bit to see results after making these changes, but I'm in SO much better spot than I was back in 2012.
PLEASE don't give up on your journey and remember that hair is only ONE of many beautiful aspects about you. Hair does not define your beauty. Sending you all so much love! xoxo

    My hair loss was definitely hormonal. I was recommended a book, Cleanse to Heal, it's not for everyone but I had to completely change my diet and started taking supplements. After over a year my excessive shedding has finally decreased significantly. Thoughts and prayers to everyone that is going through this, it can be very hard on your confidence 💕

    Thank you - I started losing my hair as a fourteen year old - went to doctors and had blood tests etc. I was told it was female pattern baldness. At that time - back in the 70's there was little information out there and it wasn't as common as it is today (at least it seems). Hair loss has been something I have battled with for over 40 years now.... I am grateful for your heartfelt testimony about the fact that we are more than our hair - and that hair is only one part of what makes us beautiful. I know that there are others who deal with even more challenging issues but frankly this has been a big one for me - because it is so noticeable and also hair is so highly valued in our society. I do try to do everything I can to encourage hair growth and keep the hair that I do have and I am grateful for every hair that I do have :)

    AIP diet, I’m telling you! I’m 33 and started losing my hair in chunks. When I implemented AIP it all grew back (and the chronic pain condition I have eased dramatically). It’s life changing and I couldn’t recommend it enough. The main culprits for people seem to be gluten, sugar and dairy.

You simply cannot regrow hair with diet if the cause is genetic (which is for most people with AGA, the most common hair loss). You have no idea what the cause of hair loss of this person is so it is super irresponsible to be recommending random stuff that worked for you, especially when you could be wasting the person's time by trying out for months something that would never work unless they have your exact problem.

    @@staceyb.5878 Hi Stacey! It stands for Autoimmune Protocol. It's a diet designed for people dealing with autoimmune issues. The first phase involves eliminating all foods which are commonly known to cause inflammation and autoimmune reactions. Then, once you experience considerable healing, you reintroduce foods one at a time to see which ones are your triggers. I've been on it since April 2019 and it's the absolute best thing I ever did for my health. I've gotten my life back. If you search AIP paleo you can find lots of info. The book "The Paleo Approach" goes into detail about, not only the diet, but lifestyle changes as well. I don't know if you have autoimmune concerns but I thought I would answer in full for anyone else who might be curious. If you do deal with autoimmune issues, I am glad to answer more questions for you ❤

I've had two consultations with specialists and they say I probably have some degree of hereditary female pattern hair loss AND and episode of Telegen Effluvium, which based on my history of several bouts of this is actually a chronic form of Telegen Effluvium. I have been advised to try a course of oral drugs to battle the chronic TE and the genetic pattern. It's scary to think of taking drugs (and if they work, would need to be for life). I only take one med, and I don't really like the prospect of taking more, but I do not want to go through life with severe hair loss. I don't have Jada's figure and perfect bone structure to pull that off, lol. Thanks for asking. My hairdresser has been a real friend through this-he cuts my hair on his day off so the salon is empty and he took all my photos that the specialists asked for (also on his day off in the empty salon), stored them for me in his drop box, then deleted them from my phone so I wouldn't have to be traumatized by looking at them. What a gem. Thanks for asking.

I felt I did everything except change my diet. This year I happened to get a new doctor who is also a natural path. She suggested going gluten, dairy, soy and nightshade free for 6 weeks then slowly adding back in one food type. Well after the 6 weeks, my hair absolutely grew like a weed and all my other gut issues subsided. She decided I have issues with gluten/dairy and she did say over time I could try adding back in the diary and the others but honestly I feel so great and my hair looks long and thick that I plan on just staying free of these food groups for the rest of my life. Not only that but I’ve dropped 20 pounds!

Then in 2021 Jan I was hospitalized because how low my platelets were. I had to get my spleen removed because of that I had to take blood thinners for clots. When I started that medication in March 2021 I began to lose so much of my hair. It was really hard on my self esteem. Since that happened I’m still struggling trying to get my hair back. My braid literally lost about a inch in width. I just started doing this fenugreek spray for my hair and I already can see my hair growing back and a change in my hair texture for the better.

    I also tested negative for Celiac disease (yay!), but when we tested my stool, my naturopath suggested going gluten-free for three months because the gluten was causing other issues (I'm afraid I can't remember the specifics). Turns out, that was the key to my seemingly uncontrollable inflammation. I had gone through some treatments for SIBO, but we weren't able to crack the other issues until I eliminated gluten. In fact, after about 6-8 months I was able to slowly re-introduced eggs and dairy back into my diet, and had no issues with MOST of it (a few issues with skim milk and soft cheese, so I don't eat those). Thanks for the update on your hair, glad you are finding solutions!

    After basically pestering my doctor about my hair loss, turns out blood test revealed vitamin D was low (due to us being more indoors due to pandemic and not exposed to sunlight). Was prescribed D3 and the massive clumping and shedding stopped! Went off it and the hairloss happened again! Went back to doc to get new prescription of it. I took the double dose vax since then and my hair continues to grow and gain volume. I continue to work on a haircare plan by reducing stress and doing things that make me happy and healthy. I continue to eat my veggies and drink water. Slowly incorporating exercise and take melatonin to help me sleep better. I’m also careful with a towel on wet hair and just blot my hair then wrap in a special hair towel to help dry it gently. My hair has stopped breaking and is more manageable. Have patience and listen to your body. Doctors may laugh but you know your body best too.

    OMG Marlena this video was so great, thank you for sharing! I too had my gallbladder removed...I was 19 years old, a sophomore in college, right before the fall semester started, it was crazy. I'm now 41 years old and man it's been a rough ride with my digestion and food allergies. My doctor at the time NEVER told me that I'd have permanent digestive issues as I got older. It's nuts how much they didn't care back then to inform patients of the potential issues they'd have. It took a while to figure all this out over the years, but I now do the same thing - digestive enzymes, customized probiotics (gut health test as well), and other supplements every single day. The healthier my diet is, mostly plant based with fish, I tend to notice I'm at my best. And I just got the iRestore helmet! I can't wait to try it, and I also use Vegamour products, which I have used before and they really do work. I'm hoping in conjunction with the iRestore it'll really help boost the growth of my hair. I really don't want to chop it all off, but I might, not sure yet. Covid really messed me up, hair loss was a major issue. Plus the other autoimmune issues I have that created some hair loss as well. And I don't have much hair to begin with, super fine blonde hair, so I am conflicted about what to do with it. I am very self conscious about going really short because I am worried I just won't look even a little pretty...hair loss makes me feel so down about my appearance, but I know I shouldn't. Looks aren't everything, and I've always been one who opted for the natural look because it's what is more comfortable for me, but chopping my hair off, I'm just nervous...super round face, not sure it'll work 😞. But really great video, thanks so much for sharing your tips!

My mom took me to the doctor and he gave me some cream that got rid of it. But then around puberty my hair was falling out in chunks but my lab work came back ok. Flash to me being 33 and my hair hasn’t gotten better at all. It can grow quite long and strong but the density is still quite low. I also did change my diet and started taking supplements but it doesn’t help.

    You have beautiful hair!! :) My hair started thinning mostly on my crown so I started using hair growth subliminals. It worked for me just using my mind and now I'm helping my husband grow back his hair and he has entire bald head. So far he has re-activated hundreds of hair follicles. HE has a few million to go, so it's probably going to take over a year to grow back all of his hair just using mind power. I'm wondering if he can have faster results though if we add in all these other things. They say the subconscious mind leads you to certain things to help get the results so perhaps that's why I landed on this video. However, his body alone without any supplements has already been re-growing hair. People are going to think he had a hair transplant but that is not the case.. lol I can't wait to shock our family and friends. The mind is very POWERFUL!! :)

    I noticed hair loss and bald spots when I was having stomach issues. When I had a small procure on my bile duct (i too had gallbladder removal surgery) I noticed my hair started to grow back. I suspected it was all linked, but my doctors basically laughed at me. I did my own research and found multiple KZread videos similar to yours that all seemed to say the same thing: gut health = hair health. The less gluten I eat the less my scalp itches. I haven't totally eradicated it from my diet...and I don't eat tons of gluten anyway, but it was noticeable when I made more of an effort. Also, I know two girls who also had gastric bypass surgeries and they lost their hair right after because it affected their nutritional intake. They had some complications years after, so I wonder if that's also linked to your hair health? Have you asked your wholistic doctor if that's a possibility? I'm curious to know if it would be linked.

    I started using 5% Rogaine about 10 years ago, but stopped over the past few years. My hair loss dramatically restarted. I just resumed using minoxidil and within about a month, my hair stopped shedding. Within 3 months my hairline was vastly improved and filled in. The only thing I've noticed this time around is that I have an increase in peach fuzz on my face as well as on my body! That is easily removed, so I cope with it. I also use my red light face mask on my head for 20 minutes. Together, this seems to be doing the trick. Even though the mask doesn't cover my entire head, I am still seeing results. It covers the majority of the front and sides of my head as well as the crown area. My hair isn't only not falling out, it is actually growing longer! I recently cut the ends off that were so thin due to all the hairs being different lengths. Since the red-light mask can be used for both the face and the head and its the correct wavelength to help anti age and treat hair loss, the investment in the mask was well worth it.

    I have lost SO much hair in the last several years, it's ridiculous. I'm actually going to have my daughter cut it short (she's not a pro but has an amazing natural talent with hair). It's hard for me to find any touch up sprays or toppers that match my natural red hair. Which really sucks. I use a Nioxin shampoo and conditioner and I don't wash it daily but even doing that, I have a handful that comes out when I do wash it. My forehead is like a six-head and wearing it in a ponytail or bun absolutely doesn't make the loss any better. So I decided it's coming off and hopefully I can use some tips and products to make it look fuller (I do have that Generic volumizer you recommended before). I'm hoping I don't regret cutting it off but I can't stand it right now. Maybe I'll see if hubby will get me the iRestore helmet. Cause idk what else I can do being I either have to go with a full wig or nothing because of my natural red color. I've cleaned up my diet but probably not enough to do anything.

    Those root cover up’s really need to take into consideration that redheads need that shit too. It’s really frustrating trying to find something other than brown or blonde. Growing up, I hated my color, and just wanted to blend in. It took till my mid 30’s to appreciate what i was born with, and I’ve had issues with it falling out for the past few years. Even getting extensions is difficult because you have to buy either blonde or brunette and color them to match the color my hair naturally is. It’s not easy to do that. I’ve even considered buying a wig, but again, there really aren’t any wigs that match my natural color.

    I also take digestive enzymes. When I was a baby I had to undergo rounds of antibiotics to save my life, but it likely destroyed my microbiome and my digestion has been downhill my whole life. It's really hard to get a healthy microbiome back and repairing the damage, unfortunately it's not as simple as taking probiotics. The enzymes really help, though! I am also wheat/gluten free as it triggers migraines for me. I tried it because I had been doing research about gut health and found that if you have a damaged digestive system you can have issues with wheat. Your digestive lining, when compromised, can let things 'through' that normally it wouldn't, and those cause issues elsewhere in your body. For me it was a big trigger for my headaches. I saw massive improvement in the frequency and severity of my headaches, like LIFE CHANGING! My digestion also improved somewhat just from removing wheat.
