Bald Spot Growth Update- It Grew Back In!
Tuesday, December 16, 2014So at the beginning of August, I told you all I would be doing the Greenhouse Effect on my hair again because my hair came out with the closure I removed. Well, I lied. Not purposely, things just didn't work out that way. I ended up sewing down my wigs for a large portion of this time and only did the GHE once! I was also traveling quite frequently, so I honestly did not have the time to do it.
Instead what I did was just general upkeep. I have found with my hair that once I just leave it alone, it sort of flourishes. Yes-- when I ignore the crap out of my hair, it's like "ok, now I'll behave and do what you want me to do (kind of like men!)." And when I pay all this extra attention to it, it's like, "well, I don't feel like it just yet." So annoying!
Just to remind you of the horror after I took out the closure here is a before shot:

I must say, after the first two months, I didn't think that it would grow back at all. I didn't see any progress really and the bald spot was so smooth. I thought that was a bad sign for sure! Then maybe in the third month, I saw some crinkles of hair starting to form.
Needless to say, no more closures for me! I think I may be done experimenting with that part of hair styling, or maybe just not do it myself! I find wigs to be more practical for me anyway and since it's a wig, it's like a built-in closure anyway-- well that's how I think of it!

Hair is resilient if the follicle has not been damaged. Good deal.
