My hair care routine could use some changing but in general I have pretty healthy hair. What I've been noticing latly is TONS are tiny hairs threw out my scalp. Not the little baby hair you get at your hair line but hairs that look like new growth, or atleast I hope its new growth.
About 6 years ago I did some pretty horriable things to my head. heat and dye did a number on it. I'm naturally a very light redish/brown and I thought deep black would look great on me. I dyed my hair black, then deep black, the red, then black, then stripped the black, burnt my scalp into a gaint scab, then dyed black again.
Now that is all over, I'm back to a natural hair care routine and the dye is completly grown out and chopped away. I don't know how I still have as much hair as I do now but I won't complain or EVER do that again.
My question is, would it take almost 5 years for new growth to grow back after I did all that to my head? I figured what damage I did could never be fixed so when I started seeing tiny hairs my first thought was I was losing hair not growing them.
