Hi. :rolleyes:
A few weeks ago I had an allergic reaction to a new shampoo I had tried for three weeks (once per week). And it was very diluted too! Like, one part of shampoo and eleven of water. I believed it had the right ingredients (ALES, as my scalp doesn't tolerate sodium sulphates), but reality told me otherwise. I got the confirmation that L'Oreal really is junk. Lesson learned: I will stick with my favorite shampoo forever, no more experiments.
Towards the end of Christmas holidays, my scalp all of sudden started itching, it hurt like someone was constantly pulling it, it became very oily and a bit dandruffy (I used to NEVER get one single scale of dandruff before the experiment). I went back to my usual shampoo next time I washed my hair, but my scalp isn't back to its optimal condition yet: it gets oily a bit too fast (is used to get barely oily on the 6th day after wash, now it does on the 4th) and, when it does, it also produces some dandruff scales.
But the worst thing of it all is that I lost at least half centimeter of ponytail circumference! :boohoo: :boohoo: :boohoo:
It is now barely between 9 and 9.5 centimeters, and a few weeks ago it was between 9.5 and 10 centimeters, almost iii!
It's particularly frustrating since my hair has been gradually growing back for the last couple of years, recovering from dye damage, and I really hoped to make it into the iii relatively soon. I feel like I had a setback just a step from victory! :sad
Has a reaction like that ever happened to you? Does it grow back? Well, I should know it grows back, but I feel so disappointed. I guess I just want to be reassured and cuddled. :shrug:
