[QUOTE="Chook, post: 1008533, member: 24561"] Mine is just growing back after falling out completely - it's collar length now. I'm still not really sure what caused it to fall out but it did it slowly over a period of about six months. My doctor said he thought it was diabetes related but the specialist thought it was stress related. Maybe a bit of both. I know I certainly got stressed when it started coming out. I completely lost all hair, eyebrows, lashes and all over my body and I wore wigs for about a year. Weirdly it has grown back a different colour (darker) but it's still quite fine. I did get a diet sheet, which I've now list, but from memory I recall it recommended venison, lamb, steak, salmon, nuts and dark leafy veg. I also started taking a vitamin tablet each day. I use thickening or volumising shampoo, conditioner and mousse. It's the mousse that, for me, is essential. I also use a good deep conditioning treatment once a month and I do colour my hair but on the advice of the specialist I don't use products that contain ammonia or hydrogen peroxide [/QUOTE]
