Postpartum Shedding
Investigated.

The hormonal drop after birth sends every hair your body 'held' during pregnancy into shedding at once. It is normal — but it can be softened, shortened, and fully recovered.

What this usually looks like

  • Dramatic shedding a few months postpartum
  • Regrowth at the hairline (short 'baby hairs')
  • Fatigue, sleep deprivation, and reduced appetite
  • Breastfeeding or recently weaned
The Open Question

Recognizing it is not the same as proving it.

Postpartum Shedding looks like several other suspects from the outside — which is why so many people treat the wrong one for years. Your Hair Investigation™ settles it, in private, with Dr. Leola.

Our Scope, Clearly Stated

The Hair Loss Detective™ provides comprehensive non-medical investigative trichology assessments focused on hair and scalp wellness. Based on your history, scalp examination, digital imaging and investigative findings, Trichologist Dr. Leola Anifowoshe may identify hair loss patterns that appear consistent with known forms of hair loss. These are investigative observations — not medical diagnoses. Medical diagnosis and prescriptions sit outside our scope. Individual results vary.
