Health conditions and my male patterned baldness. 
I know I have not done a full FAQ post about my thyroid condition of Hashimoto’s or PCOS, but I plan to soon. It is kind of hard to talk about issues I face, as most of them make me feel like crap. So here it goes: I have a male pattern baldness type of hair loss, but meanwhile that lost hair grows in so many places it should not. Thanks PCOS for making me feel SO attractive with that one. ugh
I had thick hair, and I was able to lose scary handfuls for a while. No one really notice but me and my hair dresser. My hair is super brittle from the Thyroid condition, and I had given up on healthy pretty hair. I rock the ballerina bun over and over: I am a lazy girlie girl. If you see my hair done in Instagram pictures it means one of two things:
- I had a meeting and needed to look like a human.
-
I was sending a picture to my deployed husband to show him I am alive and taking care of myself, still.
Literally, only those two reasons. It is amazing what losing fist full of hair for a year will do to a person’s willingness to try.
Health and Beauty.
I am so excited to share this with you as I got my hair done this Thursday and my hairdresser asked what I was doing different: I grew almost 2 inches in 8 weeks since my last dye job!
I was so excited or her to confirm this! I have been noticing recently that my ponytail feels thicker, and overall improved appearance of my hair.

Ok, on to my little miracle worker: NeoCell Keratin Hair Volumizer! A few months ago NeoCell contacted me to see if I wanted to try a few products, and I picked this one! I am always willing to try something once, but since working on bettering my health I have been much more skeptical of what I put in my body. I looked over the products claim, ingredients, and of course checked out some other bloggers reviews to see their results. I was sold and emailed that I was ready to try this product.
I am going to let this product pictures of my progression of 30 days on the product talk for itself for a moment:
Yeah. So this surprised me! I was honestly shocked when I looked at my before pictures and then after pictures. I knew my hair was starting to feel different, and I am onto my 2nd bottle of Volumizer …but- Seriously that was only 30 days?! (one bottle people!)
A few reasons I am in love:
· Ok, it’s obvious. LOOK up there at MY BALDING SPOT! The end.
· It is a 4 ingredient supplement. 4 amazing ingredients to nourish inside out. Keratin, Collagen, AMLA Plant Extract, Vitamin C.
· Does not contain: Soy, Wheat, Lactose, Starch, Yeast, or Artificial Flavors. Gluten free, yay!
· Significantly reduced my hair loss.
· My hair feels better, and fuller! I think it looks healthier too.
· It is SO budget friendly. Less than $20 dollars for a month supply. Way less than most of the other pricey vitamins/ shampoos I have tried – with zero results.
· Super Bonus. MADE IN USA!
I was so happy to see a company so committed to pure formulas to promote better health. They have high standards and believe that beauty is an expression of health. When I am taking care of my body I feel healthy, strong, but not beautiful. Seeing the progression of my hair over 30 days makes me feel even more beautiful.
I took biotin and other biotin enhanced supplements/vitamins etc. for 6 months trying to stop my hair from falling out. I had zero results and oh- I broke out in horrible medicine resistant acne. So not ok. I am so happy to have finally found something that works for me, and doesn’t make me break out!
Beauty is about being and feeling healthy. Their products are made to build beauty from the inside out, which I love. Giving the body essential healthy nutrients – to do just that!
Volumizer has been featured many places, but recently one of my favorite magazines featured them as the number one hair product here!
Where you can find Keratin Hair Volumizer: CVS, Walgreens, The Vitamin Shoppe, or search online. I do not live by any shopping malls or stores really, so I was happy to find it online in numerous places.

You look incredible!!! I can’t believe the difference. I would LOVE to try this new volumizer! We are a military family, between the stress of always moving around and having 2 young boys my hair has definitely taken a toll! I have noticed in the past few years that it’s thinning and I HATE it. Being able to try this product would be amazing. Thanks SO MUCH for the chance!
Thank you so much! I am still baffled by my hair too some mornings to be honest. Thank you for all you do as a military family 🙂 We have not had to move bases yet, but I can only imagine the stress you have. Good luck 🙂
I’m losing huge chunks of my hair too….no idea why
Oh girl. 🙁 ! I found I had medical issues going on with a few blood tests, doesn’t hurt to check it out with your doctor. ((Hugs))
Your hair looks amazing now. It’s very hard to find products I trust that are also gluten free!
Thanks Nina! It can be so hard or super $$ !
This looks amazing! You look amazing! I want to look amazing!
but seriously suffering from the post baby(ies) hair loss and I’m thinking this would help!
Thanks ;-). Good luck, fingers crossed!
I’m so happy you have found a product that helps you to feel more beautiful! You look fantastic!!! I have been trying to grow out my hair now for what feels like years, with little luck. My hair is so due and brittle that it just doesn’t grow. I’d love to try this product and see if it helps!! 🙂
Thank you! I hate waiting for hair to grow too. Seems like it decides to stop then! Good luck!
You look amazing! <3 Is it safe to use while breast feeding?
Thanks so much! Honestly I wish I knew, I would check with your doctor/pharmacist for sure. If you win, you can always save the bottle for when your are done breastfeeding mama!
Love to send to my mom!
You look absolutely beautiful. I am trying to find a good supplement for hair growth. Biotin makes me break out bad. You said this doesn’t make you break out so would you say it is better for your skin than biotin and is it a good alternative to biotin for making your hair grow faster?
Thank you so much. I would definitely say give this a try. I personally had horrible acne and semi good hair growth with biotin. But, no acne and very good growth with Neocell.
one more question….does it give your skin a nice glow? I noticed your skin looks incredible and has a glow to it. I tried taking a multi vitamin with biotin before and it made me break out and made my skin oily but I had a nice glow to it but I couldn’t deal with the breaking out. since there is collagen in it I wondered if there are skin benefits too besides hair growth. thank u so much!
