My Hair is falling out!!

My hair is everywhere! I pull out clumps every time I brush or wash my hair and tangles are increasing to the point where I've cut a couple of them out because I just couldn't brush it out again!! Also, Evie has become accustom to grabbing onto it immediately as I pick her up.

I guess this is one of the joys of having babies. There's this hormone that is continually being released while you are pregnant that prevents your hair from doing it's natural shedding. Around 3-4 months after giving birth your body starts to readjust and your hair starts shedding again, but more than normal.

To help relieve some of my frustration I just chopped 4-5 inches off and it feels so good!!! I'm so happy that my hairstylist had an opening today, otherwise I might have taken matters into my own hands and that would not be pretty.

The last time a non-professional cut my hair was when I was three. My sister(who was 4) thought it would be fun to play Barber Shop so she found a pair of scissors and brought me around behind the living room couch (obviously she knew she was doing something wrong) and cut bangs on me that were only an inch long. Not good...

I'll try and post pictures of my new hairdo soon.
