Postpartum Shedding Is No Joke! Mint And Hair Grease For Hair Repair??!!

Well good morning!  It's been such a good little while since I've taken the time to sit down to write about my hair and what all I have been doing to it to get to stay healthy, so I really don't know where I should begin but I'm going to try.  I gave birth to my little miracle late last month and not long after that wonderful event I started to notice that my temples were starting to thin.  Now I wasn't too concerned about this then and I'm still not today because this is something that I've experienced before.

Now there different ways that people out there have combated postpartum and I have tried several different methods and products in the past to fight this annoying stage of my life after giving birth, but my favorite tools that I love to use when it comes to repairing my hair loss is castor oil and peppermint essential oil.

I actually looked into peppermint essential oil last summer when I was trying to grow my edges and crown section thicker while growing locs, and when I saw the improvement of my hair I decided to continue using peppermint essential oil along with castor oil and lavender essential oil.  The only reason why I did not add lavender essential oil back into my regiment as well is because I still can't stand the smell of it right now but I'm hoping that I will be able to do so soon because I really miss using that oil.

I'm going to leave a link in this post of a website that I found to be very helpful when I decided to learn more about peppermint and how it can help my hair so be sure to check the link out at the end of this blog if you want to learn more!


So what do I do with the castor oil, peppermint essential oil and blue magic?  All I do is add the amount of castor oil that I want into my blue magic and I add a decent amount of drops into my grease.  I then mix the grease and oils together very well and then apply the grease mixture all over my hair and scalp as usual.  I haven't figured out how much of castor oil and essential oil I add in because I'm still experimenting with different amounts of each oil, but once I have that all figured out I will be back to share that with you.

Have I seen any kind of improvement at all??  Well it's been two weeks since I started adding my little mixture to my hair and scalp and I have seen improvement in my balding areas.  Now I haven't seen a drastic change and I don't plan on seeing a drastic change for some time but I do know that the grease mixture that I made is helping move forward in the right direction.

If you have suffered through postpartum shedding before what did you use to repair your hair and scalp?

Be Blessed and I'll be talking to you on the next one!
