My hair has been falling out a lot lately, and my pony tail looks more like a rats tail. Do you think cutting it will make a difference or make it look better?

Getting a haircut will probably make you feel better. Fresh a new look? Hair loss is devastating for women. You need a pick-me-up. Go for the new haircut

I had the same problem in February. I was losing hair by the handful and had a bald spot. I cut off all my hair. Now that I am on meds and have things under control, my hair is growing in so beautifully. And when I say I cut off my hair, I mean I cut it all off. It was a pixie cut. I don't regret it. I looked darned cute with short hair and my stylist cut it so that my bald spot was covered up.
