Hair Loss After Weight Loss? Here's What to Do

Why Your Hair Might Be Falling Out After Weight Loss (And What You Can Do to Feel Like You Again)

You finally did it.You committed to your health, stuck to your plan, and started seeing results. The number on the scale is going down, your clothes are fitting differently, and people are starting to notice.

But then… your hair started falling out.

More strands in your brush. A wider part line. That moment in the shower when clumps end up in your hands and you think—What is happening to me?

If this sounds familiar, please hear this:You’re not alone, and you’re not doing anything wrong. Weight loss—especially when it’s rapid or connected to major changes in diet—can absolutely lead to hair loss. It’s called telogen effluvium, and it’s your body’s way of responding to stress, nutritional shifts, or hormonal changes.

Even if you're eating well, staying active, and feeling stronger than ever—your body might still be in recovery mode underneath it all.

And that can be devastating when you’re finally starting to feel confident again.

This is where extensions and toppers can be more than just a “beauty thing.”They can be a bridge.

A bridge between who you used to be and who you're becoming.A way to support your natural hair while it rests and resets.And maybe most importantly—a way to feel like yourself today, not six months from now.
