extensions and bad hair

Thyroid issues can also cause problems, some are temporary for example getting pregnant or having a child can easily cause your hair to change.  Thyroid issues tend to cause excessive shedding.

He thinks that my extensions rubbing against/around my real hair is causing my hair to break/ split/thin. Could this be happening. I use the clip ins, but I don't see any thin  spots on the scalp or anything, However my hair is so thin and sparse, way worse than when I first started wearign the extensions. Please help, I don't know what to do. My own hair is suffering. I know I don't eat right. Could this just be the problem? I hope so.

Of course not eating right could be a problem.  Your hair is fed from within.  Try taking a multivitamin (you'll notice a difference in about 3 months).

I doubt the clip-ins rubbing against your hair is causing a problem.  My own hair always feels sparse in comparison when I take down my extensions.  I feel damn near bald.  It's just because I'm not used to it.

If you're careful putting in and taking out your clip-ins and don't notice any hairs on the clip or thin spots on your scalp, it's probably just a comparison problem.

If you're noticing overall hair loss, you should probably check with your doctor.
