My Hair Regrowth Journey: What I’m Doing to Restore My Hair

Introduction

Losing my hair was one of the hardest experiences I’ve been through, but I refuse to let it define me. After months of frustration, sadness, and research, I’ve committed to a hair regrowth plan that prioritizes scalp health, nourishment, and gentle care. If you're struggling with hair loss, know that you are not alone—and that recovery is possible. Here’s what I’m doing to regrow my hair and restore my confidence.

1. Targeted Supplements for Hair Growth

I’m supporting my hair from the inside out by nourishing my body with the right nutrients. Two key supplements I’ve added to my routine include:

• Collagen Peptides – Collagen helps strengthen hair, improve elasticity, and support overall scalp health.  (Let me know I can hook you up with the link if you want)
• Hair, Skin & Nails Vitamins – These contain biotin, folic acid, and essential vitamins to promote healthy hair growth and minimize shedding.
• Saw Palmetto & Pumpkin Seed Oil Supplement - Help block hormones and promote hair regrowth
  

2. Kirkland Signature Minoxidil 5% Foam

Minoxidil is one of the only FDA-approved treatments for hair regrowth, and I’ve incorporated Kirkland Signature Minoxidil Foam 5% into my daily routine. I apply it directly to my scalp to help reactivate hair follicles and encourage new growth. Consistency is key with this treatment, so I’m committed to using it every day.  I know it's for men but my Dermatologist and research says to use the 5% as 2% isn't as effective and a marketing gimmick.  Know that Minoxidil is a LIFELONG commitment and read about 'Dread Shed' here.  

3. A Gentle Hair Care Routine

I’ve completely changed how I care for my hair to prevent further damage and encourage healthy regrowth. My new routine includes:

• Special Regrowth Shampoo & Conditioner – I’m using a shampoo and conditioner specifically designed to support thinning hair and nourish my scalp.  I use this every other day
• Head & Shoulders Tea Tree Oil Shampoo - Tik Tok Viral Regrowth Shampoo & Conditioner (I use this every single day, except sundays and wednesdays when I use Nizoral)
• Nizoral Anti-Dandruff Shampoo: I use this twice a week on Sundays and Wednesdays
• Loreal Everpure Bond Repair Shampoo & Conditioner - I alternate every other day between using this and the Pur'ador I follow up either one with the Head & Shoulders I use that one every day
  
• No Tight Hairstyles – I’ve stopped putting my hair in ponytails and buns that put stress on my already fragile strands.
• Silk Sleep Cap – Sleeping in a silk cap helps reduce friction, preventing unnecessary breakage and dryness while I sleep.
• Hair Oiling - I use this to scrunch out the crunch, I do an oil treatment the night before wash day
• Batana Hair Oil - I alternate this one to scrunch out the crunch and to do an oil treatment every night before I wash my hair in the morning.
  
• VanillaSwirl Weekly Hot Oil Treatment This powerhouse blend of Castor, Rosemary, Pumpkin Seed, Coconut, and Jojoba oils is designed to nourish your scalp, strengthen follicles, and promote healthy hair growth. Warm it up for 15 seconds before applying for deeper absorption and maximum benefits. Use once a week for softer, stronger, and longer hair! 💛
• Deep Conditioning - I do this once a week SheaMoisture's Intensive Hydration Hair Masque with Manuka Honey & Mafura Oil deeply nourishes dry, damaged hair, restoring moisture, softness, and shine. Packed with natural ingredients, it helps strengthen strands, reduce breakage, and leave hair feeling luxuriously smooth and hydrated.
• Protein Treatment - SheaMoisture's Manuka Honey & Yogurt Hydrate + Repair Protein Power Treatment strengthens and restores dry, damaged hair with a powerful blend of proteins and nourishing ingredients. Used weekly, it helps rebuild hair structure, reduce breakage, and improve elasticity for healthier, more resilient strands.

4. Scalp Health & Hydration

Healthy hair starts at the scalp, so I’m making sure to keep mine in the best possible condition:

• Scalp Massages – I gently massage my scalp daily to increase blood circulation and support follicle health.
• Hydration – Drinking enough water is essential for hair health, so I’m making sure to stay hydrated throughout the day.

5. Patience & Consistency

Hair regrowth takes time, and I know this won’t be an overnight fix. I’m committed to staying consistent with my routine, tracking my progress, and focusing on overall wellness.
