    Yep. Around 4 months it was bad! It's growing back now so I have all this baby hair around my face that just sticks straight up. It's still thin, but getting better. I started washing and brushing it less.

    I must have lost a bunch all at once because I notice it growing back now all at the same length. I have a new short fringe of bangs. I kinda like it : So don't worry, will come back!

    Mine was so horrible! My hair would come out in clumps in the shower. I remember being afraid that I was going to go bald! Then once it stopped falling out I had all those random short pieces that were growing back in. I finally just went to my hair dress
