Hi Everyone

I had long hair for a few years, for about a year it was in a ponytail.  Didn't take much care of it (a la washing/combing).  Now I buzz cut it and it's a bit thin. 

Is that normal after having it long for so long?  Is it because when it was long strands got pulled out by the root so they'll be a bit behind the actual hair that was cut?  It seems like there is tiny hair around the slightly longer (1 cm or so) hair.  Will it become even again?

Thanks!

A year ago I suffered from hair loss too and I started trying everything you can imagine to stop my hair loss.
the things that really worked for me was:

1) Vitamin A - an anti-oxidant which promotes healthy production of sebum in the scalp;

2) Vitamin E stimulates circulation. Good blood circulation in the scalp is important in keeping hair follicles productive. The 'B' vitamins contribute to melanin, which gives hair its healthy color and also stimulates blood circulation;

3) massage is also beneficial. Massage stimulates circulation. As already noted, good circulation in the scalp keeps hair follicles active. Experts suggest a few minutes of daily head massage by hand. Circulation through massage may be improved by using a few drops of lavender or bay essential oil in an almond or sesame oil base with massage;

4) Try rubbing your scalp with garlic juice, Onion Juice or Ginger Juice(you can either of one out of three, Do not mix any of two or three);

5) also I used herbal treatment - I think it is very important!

It enhances hair growth by blocking DHT (Dihydrotestostrone) - a major cause of hair loss!

Good Luck!
