Postpartum Hair Loss
15
items Products to counter the dreaded postpartum shed and support healthy new hair growth
This stuff was amazing with moisturizing my head. I know it's used for hair, but I applied it to the roots to keep them as moisturized as possible. Didn't stop the epic shed but did help the new hair growth coming back in
FAST FOOD Leave-On Conditioner
Weirdly enough, this actually helps. It cleans the scalp and reduces inflammation which helps keep the hair locked in and prevents build up which will make the hair fall out. Also safe is you want to nurse
Head & Shoulders
This is one of the best brands for hair care. Plus, it smells amazing! From what I could identify, safe for nursing and the moisturizing shampoo helped so much with the postpartum shed.
milk_shake® hair products – Milkshake USA
I used this to help with the hair loss because the more you pull, the more you're going to lose. This was gentle on my hair, didn't pull and reduced any damage
Crave Naturals Glide Thru Detangling Brush
Omegas help with hair loss. From my research you want to avoid Vit A, but DHA is a seriously beneficial Omega. Not only does it help with brain function (if you're nursing, any DHA you get will go to the baby so it's good to boost yourself) but DHA a...
DHA | High-Intensity Omega-3 DHA
Because Milkshake is a high end brand, Tresemme offers an affordable option for hair repair. The shampoo and conditioner are surprisingly good and my hair maintained it's shine and strength.

Protect & Strengthen: For Every Hair Type & Texture - OLAPLEX, Inc
Someone recommended this to me to help clean up some thinning patches on my head. I love the feel and it's actually helping with my psoriasis belive it or not. I'll update on how well it restores my hair growth
Revitalizing Scalp Tonic – | Moroccanoil Canada
Okay this is the a number one brand for hair thinning. I do not recommend though if you are nursing. But I got this for my partner for his thinning and it's amazing. Also if you have a scalp issue test first. For me this product made my scalp worse s...
Nioxin Scalp + Hair Thickening System 2 - Includes Shampoo, Conditione
I used this while pregnant because the mint weirdly helped with my nausea. However, once your shed is done this is also a great way to keep your head clean and promote new growth. Would not recommend it for the first 6 months though as you want to tr...
VOERUY Rosemary Scalp Exfoliator Scrub
This is coming next week and I'm super curious how well it works. It was recommended to me by a friend so I will update once I've tried. Since pregnancy my hair dries up so easily, especially the back around the crown (gets blasted by the hot water i...
Bond Protein Repair Sealing Serum for Hair | OGX® Canada
Another great product from Nioxin. I can use this one as it's more gentle on the scalp. The only thing though is again I dont recommend these for nursing so I can't say for sure how well it would work for postpartum but I have used it in the past and...
Night Density Rescue Antioxidant Hair Serum
These arw delicious and I noticed a big difference with my hair and nails with repair. But be warned, biotin will darken hair so although it is helpful be mindful of how long you want to use.
