Postpartum hair regrowth

4 replies

Baby is now ten months and I have arrived at the postpartum hair regrowth stage. I currently have so much sticky up hair along my hairline I feel like a (ever controversial here) loo brush. The rest of my hair is mid back length.

Had anyone solved this horrendous phase? Or just made it slightly less awful?

Nope but solidarity, now 14 months PP and looking the same lol!

If you find out, please let me know! 2 years PP and still awful! Not helped by the fact that expecting DC2 now so likely have to start all over again 🙈

I had long hair so tied it back and glued the regrowth down with gel and hairspray (with varying degrees of success). Didn't help that my pre pregnancy hair was straight and my post partum regrowth was curly. I felt I looked like I had a lion's mane when I tied my hair back lol. Once the strands were long enough I did a French plait around my hairline (bit like a hairband but using my own hair) to hold the bits down instead. Bit fiddly though so often as not I just accepted that I'd have to walk around looking like a mad professor...

I liked the baby hairs annoying as they are it was a sign of regrowth. I used products for fly aways, wore hats and headbands.
