My hair

Its not growing. Well my head hair isnt at all. But my body hair sure does. Anyways but i have noticed my hair is getting oily! I never had that problem. I usially go 3 days before it gets oily. But now i have to wash it the next day because its super oily! Is anyone else like this? When did you notice your hair growing? I am 16 weeks 5 days.

I think everyone's different when it comes to that stuff, my best friends hair grew almost 10 inches throughout her pregnancy and my sisters best friend didn't grow more than an inch or two. I'm 26 weeks and my hair has grown probably 3 or 4 inches

My hair is crazy oily. It takes a few hours after I wash it too. Ugh. It's growing though, like crazy. It's almost to my butt and I had it just past my shoulders only a few months ago lol my face is pretty oily too I'm always blotting the oil off. Try a shampoo that isn't really creamy, like garnier fructis or herbal essences naked. It's new from them with no silicone and parabens and that's usually something that makes hair droopy and oily and weighs it down. I'm loving it so far :) what prenatals are you using? Those are what gets your hair and nails growing and healthy

I think it just depends on what nutrients the baby is pulling out of you.I bet ur baby will have gorgeous hair as it gets older. I feel like my 1st pulled all my pretty out of me, but it was a easy pregnancy. My 2nd my hair is thick long skin is great, but the pregnancy has been a journey. Wish you well!
