1st Trimester

Has anyone else's hair & nails stopped growing?

My hair and nails usually grow faster than I can keep up with.  When I get my hair colored, I typically have roots 3-4 weeks later.  I got my hair colored 6 weeks ago and I have no roots.  Also, my nails aren't growing at all. Anyone else?

  • My hair and nails usually grow reasonably quickly but I feel like they're gotten a little faster since I got pregnant.

  • Are you taking your prenatals? Usually those help speed up growth BIG time.

  • I started taking PNV in January and my hair has been growing like crazy and my nails stayed the same (and I usually have awful nails.)..however, now that I'm pregnant my hairdresser said my hair barely grew since last time. My nails on the other hand are growing like crazy. I think I'm weird.

  • My nails and hair are growing like weeds.  I noticed today, however, that my naturally curly hair seems to be growing straight at the roots now - all the new growth isn't curling like the bottom - it kinda looks like I had a perm and the perm is growing out. 

  • I have been taking prenatals, but I also took alot of vitamens and suppliments prior to being pregnant.  It just has been the oppisite of what I thought was going to happen.
  • My hair started out pretty long, so I can't really tell if its growing fast or not.  But I feel like I'm constantly clipping my nails.  They are definitely growing faster.  But I think its mostly due to the prenatals.
    I give up trying to get a ticker.  I have a DD that is 2.5 years old and is awesome.  Maybe I'll add a quote to distinguish myself.  Hmmm.  How about...
