I think I already said this on the CO thread, but since I'm seeing so many people on here who have problems with thinness, I thought I'd share here, too, JUST in case it could help someone else!
I went CO for a month in the spring and my hair and scalp LOVED it. Then I tried WO for a month. It was okay, but I started shedding MASSIVELY. I haven't measured my circumference at all because I'm afraid to. I didn't notice a difference by just looking at my hair, but I was combing out two or three GOBS (like fist-sized wads) each day. I switched over to CO again, thinking everything would become lovely again, but the shedding persisted. Finally, after a few months back on CO, I broke down and used shampoo. My hair HATED it... but ever since then (it's been about two weeks) my shedding is back to normal! I guess my follicles were blocked with oil or something? I dunno. I've been continuing CO since, and my hair has regained its moisture, and I'm still not shedding much.
So for anyone who is shedding and your situation is like mine... try this! :) I hope my story can help someone else. :D
