jojoba?
oh and thanks for the new site...I wonder if its the same emu oil they said in the site....

i just found out a site called skin biology and they say that emu oil can help me....any ideas?

Right, leave in conditioners mean u LEAVE THEM IN WITHOUT RINSING OUT, that sounds like a deep conditioner that u have. I have never heard of a perm that didnt tell u to base your scalp or your edges.

Good Luck.............

What kind of styles do you wear?

A dermatologist is a physician and went to school to study hair, skin and nails so a dermatologist would be able to help you out alot better than a regular physician.

also.....there is no history of Male patter baldness in my family......they have some baldness but im talking about losing it at like 40-50

anyone know what I can do about the hairs that fell out in clumps? .....
Ive been trying to beef up on my protein intake.....
anyone know anyone that would know of such a situation? ......on the instructions.....it said contact a physican.....what can they do a dermo cant?

once again thanks for all the help

I think that you need to find a good moisturizing shampoo, conditioner and some sort of protein treatment. Are you using any moisturizers (Elasta QP Mango Butter,Elasta QP Recovery) on your hair? Do you use any oils? Are you just shampooing and using a leave in? Maybe you should try washing your hair once/twice a week. The second one being a CO wash. What type of styles are you wearing? Do you use heat? Do you protect your hair at night?

You may have more than one problem, besides any weird problems leftover from relaxer damage to the scalp. Keep in mind that some possibility exists that your hair started thinning on its own during the period you were relaxing it, too. But you also may have a couple of problems that you can do something about. It doesn't seem that you're moisturizing your hair at all, and it sounds like you're using way too much silicone without clarifying the buildup.

Your leave-in and the Garnier Fructis both contain loads of silicones. They are designed to put a shiny glaze on your hair, which may or may not be protective. But they basically have no moisturizing properties and can build up on your hair to the point that it gets crunchy and breaks off.

What you should do is rinse your hair regularly (at least weekly) with a solution of 1 cup vinegar in 1 quart warm water. If you continue to use those products, you should continue the use of vinegar rinses indefinitely.

Heat cap treatment with light oils (like coconut or macadamia), including volatile essential oils (like orange oil) will also remove buildup, while allowing oils to penetrate dry hair.

You also need to use a conditioner that contains no silicones, which can be identified by the ending "-cone" on the ingredients list.

Also, get some jojoba, which can be purchased online or in a natural food store. A couple of drops spread across the fingers and worked into the hair (either wet or dry) will make it silkier and tangle-free.

Try these things, and let us know how they work. I think you will see an immediate improvement in how your hair feels, and over a period of months you should see your new growth start to return to normal.

What other products do you use on your hair?

Shampoo
Conditioner
Moisturizers
Oils
ETC

When you use the mayo in your hair make sure to follow up with a moisturizing conditioner so that you won't experience anymore breakage.
