I still cannot bear the thought of going to the hairdresser because those young girls always want to pull your hair out.
I would try everyone's advice because hair takes a long time to grow out and there is no point in waiting to see if something worked.

Re: Hair loss !
Pats you need to get rid of the thing that is causing the stress or learn a way to handle it before you take on repairs..... How about yoga ?When I feel very stressed I lay comfy on my bed and breath in and out deeply and slowley and count each breath and have no other thoughts ...
I agree about the jelly
Plus more oily foods like oily fish and nuts

The gelatine is good for the growth of the root ...I hate to suggest that you pull a hair out by its root but next time one does get pulled out look at the white blob at the end it should be plumb if the root is weak then it may be more diet relatedThings You Need for Healthy Hair
Water
Water makes up one-fourth of the weight of a hair strand and it is key ingredient for silky and shiny hair. Make sure to drink at least eight glasses (two liters) of water daily.
Protein
Protein strengthens the hair shaft and reduces the possibilities of hair splitting and breaking. It is necessary to stop hair splitting and breaking to ensure long and thick hair. Fish, meat, milk, eggs, cheese, nuts, and cereals are good source of protein.
Vitamins
Vitamin A benefits skin and scalp, where as vitamin B and C strengthen hair strands and promote blood circulation on the scalp. Vitamin E is also very important for your hair, it gives color and ensures long and thick hair. Fruit, green vegetables, cereals, eggs, milk, bread are good source of vitamins.
Minerals
Iron helps oxygen to reach hair roots. Red meat and dark green vegetables are good source of iron. Zinc not only builds hair protein, but also prevents hair loss. Zinc is found abundantly in sea food and meat. Copper helps hair pigmentation and optimizes natural hair color. Shellfish, liver, fresh vegetables, nuts, seeds and meat are good source of minerals. Minerals are necessary for long and thick hair.

Re: Hair loss !
I've always had thin, fine, greasy, weedy hair and it's certainly not improving with age. I now have kidney disease so do not want to 'up' my protein.I usually take vit B complex, omega 3 and garlic capsules/tabs.
Cheese, my former passion, is out because of my high cholesterol (inherited).
So does anyone have any suggestions for improving my hair ?
I use a thickener and perm it (at home) sometimes but perms don't seem to increase the thickness any more. Think they've changed the formula. I never go to hairdressers because they do awful things to me lol
