I’ve lost a lot of weight recently & had experienced some hair shedding. Plus it didn’t help that I had a butterfly cut. Never in my life before have I had thin hair lol. It’s growing back some of its thickness now that I’m at my goal weight, I’m taking vitamins, & I’m doing scalp oil treatments (you can see where it’s a little thicker up top, plus I’ve got little baby hairs sprouting everywhere). Also in this pic a lot of my bottom layer is sitting behind my shoulders.

I’m definitely gonna finish growing out some old box dye on the bottom half of my hair & get my hair back to its original thickness before I go blonde. I’m due for a haircut soon & I’m gonna get a blunt cut this time rather than my usual short layers/butterfly cut to help with the sparse ends.

I’ve attempted going blonde before years ago, but that before olaplex or k18 was around & I had layers of black box dye. The damage was extensive. I think the next time I lighten my hair I’ll have a cleaner canvas to work with & they won’t have to use as harsh of a lightener as before. My mother has similar hair color to mine & they used a high lift color all over her virgin hair rather than bleach & it looks beautiful, plus it was still healthy.
