My hair is thinning out and I wanted something to keep it looking nice. I know it looks normal, but at the rate I'm losing my hair, I'm going to have thin hair and/or bald spots.

I agree, take Biotin. Also, Evening Primrose Oil. It is also in a pill. A large pill, but it's worth it. The two of them together won't keep your hair from falling out, but they help with the regrowth. I can't tell you how many baby hairs I have right now:)

Honestly I would stay away from hair extensions. They cause pulling to the root of the hair and will just cause more hair loss.

I would talk to your doctor about the hair loss and see if they recommend anything for it, or if it's caused by a medication or something if they can adjust your meds.

Try biotin it's a supplement (pill) it keeps your hair thicker and it grows faster!

I am currently coming out of a hair loss cycle. Any time they hit hard, I use the Invati line from Aveda- shampoo, conditioner, and root spray. It really works. My hair is thicker and it is more difficult to see my scalp.

well they have some extensions that wont pull your hair out some doctors dont really consider hair loss a major problem. th
meaning they wont just change your meds for hair loss if meds are keeping you stable
