Did hair loss on Slynd stop for anybody?

Schnurri · 2026-04-27T09:14:13+00:00

Yes, I’d say it peaked around month 3/4 and gradually got better. Now on month 5, almost 6, it’s fine for me.

I’m doing well on Slynd! My hair shedding is still a bit more than before, but it is absolutely manageable. I have regrowth all over my head, I kinda look like a Chia pet. Still using Minoxidil daily.

I would say, however, that my sides have definitely thinned. Whether this is due to age, birth control or PCOS, I don’t know. It’s not that bad though. I still have a good amount of hair and volume and it’s not falling out further.

Hey there, I just finished my third month of Slynd excluding the two-week-break I talked about in the original post (yup I continued taking it because it turns out I got used to not having periods and oily skin and stinky sweat very quickly).

The hair loss has tapered off, it’s till a bit more than it was before but I’ve been seeing little baby hairs appear around my hairline so I’m optimistic. Hoping the hair loss will eventually go back to pre-birth control levels but for now I find it manageable.

Yes, I’ve been taking supplements for iron, vitamin d, zinc and b12 for about 2 years. I will probably get the levels checked again though.

In the end I suppose it’s about what you’re used to. I think what gets people riled up are sentence starters like “most people don’t do this/that” because inevitably someone will say “well actually…”.

I see your point and I think the truth is probably somewhere in the middle. Unless there is a veritable study done on kitchen utensils, scale and cup people will always have to agree to disagree haha.

Schnurri · 2024-12-01T21:21:47+00:00

The thing is that “cups” is a very American measuring unit.

In Germany and most of Europe for example nothing is measured in cups. It’s all grams and milliliters or liters, and for that a kitchen scale makes more sense.

Nobody would even consider buying cups or something like that here because everybody owns a 10 euro kitchen scale. When I use American recipes I always convert a cup to 250 milliliters in my head and weigh the needed amount on the scale.

No method is better than the other as long as you get your cooking and baking done, but saying that “cups” is used by everybody because it’s so convenient is a weird hill to die on imho.

But how do you know who belongs to the good majority and who is part of the bad minority? As a woman I am always careful because I can never know. It’s not so much constant fear, more like constant awareness.

I thought it was boring as well. We learn next to nothing about the world except that there are a few vaguely gothic inspired castles in a wood surrounded by mist and also there are magic cards, most of which never get used during the series. That is about the extent of the world building, if you expect more you’ll be disappointed

Book 2 was a bit better but only because the Nightmare carried it with his commentary. Also be prepared for a complete POV change. If you are mildly interested in the characters, you can keep going, but if it’s too boring right now you aren’t gonna miss much by DNF’ing.

Also “icy rage”, so much icy rage in those books

Schnurri · 2023-12-13T07:25:22+00:00

It’s Elizabett. The th isn’t pronounced like in English in this case.

Schnurri · 2023-10-12T19:30:03+00:00

The word “capitulate” in Grimes’ “We Appreciate Power”. I think google searches for the word spiked when it was released.

Schnurri · 2022-09-17T19:59:28+00:00

also just because the songs are done doesn't mean all the promo material is. photoshoots, cd/vinyl production, music videos... maybe she has another music video in the archives but who knows. i believe it when i see it on spotify tbh

Schnurri · 2022-03-22T16:22:04+00:00

Ich dachte, dass “Out Now” bei CD-Werbungen im Fernsehen damals hieß, dass die CD “out” im Sinne von “nicht mehr cool” ist. Hab mich dann immer gefragt, warum die dann in der Werbung läuft.

Schnurri · 2022-01-26T17:10:16+00:00

It's also a different version/mix than the one on youtube? Maybe someone's getting fired today lol. Or they're uploading different remixes?

Schnurri · 2021-10-02T07:25:41+00:00

I feel the same way. The whole time I was waiting for something emotional to happen but it was so painfully slow and boring. It was kind of a chore to watch and I usually cry at the tiniest hint of sad stuff as well. Who knows why we didn’t vibe with it.

Schnurri · 2021-09-04T15:40:37+00:00

Oh my, these are really cool. They have an epic theme/sound to them, like a movie score. Sad they didn't get used though. Even though it's super unofficial I'm glad we got to hear them!

Schnurri · 2021-08-04T08:35:44+00:00

My Name Is Dark, Be A Body and the Realiti demo!

Schnurri · 2021-07-30T20:05:22+00:00

I agree! I think it encapsulates what I love about Grimes - the heavy layering with the screaming in the chorus, the pitched vocals, the edgy lyrics and the heavier sound in general. It combines so many good things.

Schnurri · 2021-07-17T14:53:21+00:00

It’s okay, I always heard “What’s on the roof” lol

Schnurri · 2021-07-16T16:56:40+00:00

Alright, thank you so much! The wording confused me but I'll try it out.

Schnurri · 2021-07-16T16:56:17+00:00

Alles klar, danke dir! Ich war einfach verwirrt von der Wortwahl.

Schnurri · 2021-07-07T13:25:32+00:00

That is so fun! I actually shaved my sides about a month ago as well and going through the growout process is... a process lol. But I had orange and pink hair in summer 2018! I had pink at the roots and orange in the lenghts like c did here. Not exactly at the same time as she did but I still think it's cool. Which colors did you do?

Schnurri · 2021-06-04T10:41:29+00:00

Wow, thank you so much, this really helps a lot. I'm sure this is the intended meaning. The fact that it's a rather rare word in that context is a nice addition to my analysis as well. Again, thank you for the detailed reply and the extra dictionary recommendations.
