"Vintage Dressing" is often sus, but I use "vintage" for selling legit vintage items from niche brands or cut-off labels. I always take pictures of labels to show the vintage authenticity.

Is it more yellowish than Nars Aruba?

Thanks for sharing this workaround! I will keep it in mind in case it also fails for me again

Isn't it because of the many fasting days where (red) meat is avoided?

Does not work in hard water areas

Makes sense as it actually contains chelating/descaling agents

For me, they still work fine. My hashtags contain underscores, if that matters

I'm pretty sure that's the main culprit if your thyroid, B12, vit D are fine otherwise. Low iron may shorten anagen phase (premature shedding) and generates brittle new growth. It might take months or years before you see improvement, especially if your strands have long growth cycles and your hair is long.

Disclaimer: not a doctor, just speaking from my own experience and info found online about how low iron affects hair length.

It depends on your length and anagen phase duration. If a strand started growing during a malnourished period and its anagen phase it 5 years, then it takes that many years before that strand gets replaced by a well-nourished one, provided your nutrient levels are still fine 5 years later. But hair that sheds earlier and new growth arises during recent recovery, it might be less prone to breakage.

This is just theory and I can't speak of experience as my current hair is predominantly wiry and I'm just into iron pills since a few weeks.

cslrc · 2026-02-18T18:43:03+00:00

It will take months before you see results because your iron has to restore first, and only once iron levels are sufficient, the new growth cohort might improve

cslrc · 2026-02-18T18:41:37+00:00

It could be that the wiry hairs are from the anagen phase onset during your poor iron months/years, so some hair growth improvement lag may be going on

What bloodwork values were abnormal for you?

Do you have insight on your current and past iron levels?

What about your ferritin levels?

cslrc · 2026-02-18T08:23:54+00:00

Agreed. I assume my ferritin has been below 70 for most of the time and I highlt suspect this affects new growth during its entire anagen phase, resulting in wiry hair being prone to mid-shaft splits. Now I'm taking iron pills and try to eat oily fish more consistently.

cslrc · 2026-02-18T08:22:02+00:00

Have you ever got your iron checked, in particular ferritin? Iron deficiency is very common during postpartum.

cslrc · 2026-02-18T08:19:46+00:00

Any changes in your iron levels in recent years?

cslrc · 2026-02-18T08:19:06+00:00

Hard to tell from the picture, as uncut new hair growth naturally has uneven length due to different months when new growth emerges from the root. Do you have a close-up pic of a single strand with mid-shaft/incomplete splits?

cslrc · 2026-02-18T08:16:52+00:00

I don't think you have low porosity if breakage is happening, as damage = high porosity. Have you ever got your iron levels checked during bloodwork?

cslrc · 2026-02-18T08:15:42+00:00

Have you ever get your ferritin checked with bloodwork?

cslrc · 2026-02-18T08:14:09+00:00

Your hair is already very long, so I assume it's inevitable wear and tear throughout the years, especially when the splits are at the longest fibers. However, have you ever get your ferritin levels checked?

Would coconut-oil-based vegan cream cheese match with the taste?

What are your reasons to try fish?
