Please help- extension question

Hi all! I am new here and in need of your expertise. I had a baby 14 months ago and as many of you probably know, you can lose alot of hair after childbirth. Well, I have always had pretty thin hair but it is hidden well because it happens to be naturally curly. I have lost a lot of hair in the front or bang area. I'm currently using Rogaine to battle this but I would like to feel comfortable leaving the house during the present time. Here is my hair before:


Here is a good picture of my problem area:



Ok, my question is I have been debating buying clip ins. Would that work for this problem? Should I buy the clip in bangs or will I need pieces to cover the crown of my head? Any help that you can give me is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I love your pics! Such a beautiful baby; congratulations! Hope everything is going well.

i also lost a lot of hair in the front of my head/bang area after the birth of my daughter and my hairdresser said that I shouldn't do any extensions until i was out of the shedding cycle so I ended up wearing fat headbands a lot until it started growing back. She said that if I wore clipins/hair extensions it would just pull on my hair more and cause more to fall out.
Just remember that when you are pregnant, your hormones are in full drive and your hair doesn't shed at all and then a few months after you give birth, your hormones go back to normal and you will shed all the hair you should have during the 10 months. I started severely shedding about 8 months after my DH was born and thought I was going to go bald.....luckily it does stop and only lasts about 3-6 months and then it does grow back.

Headbands were a lifesaver for me. By the way, I have the same type of hair as you....curly hair that looked fabulous (like yours) during the pregnancy and like crap after. I stopped wearing it curly b/c it looked stringy.....

By the way, you are beautiful and your baby is adorable!!

good luck.

Thank you ladies! I just started losing my hair about 3 months ago, a few months after I quit breastfeeding. I have talked to the doctor about it and she seems to think it's hormonal. I've had a few strangers comment on my hair loss and it's been embarrassing. Ironically, I've always hated my hair and wished I'd been born with stick straight hair 

I will be looking at your website! Thanks again!

I can feel you, girl. You have to just consider the source. Some people have no class and can be so cruel. I was born with a genetic intersex condition that affects my hormone levels. Sometimes people have even thought I was a crossdresser or something and have been hateful to me. Don't let it get to you. It could very possibly be something temporary. You might mention it to your doctor again and ask for blood work to see where your hormones levels are.
