I was left with no other choice but to finally do a BIG CHOP😱
You're probably wondering, who's that woman and where did her edges go?
Hi, my name is Jummie Ogunyemi, the Creator Of Glammed Naturally Oil and just 2 years ago, I gave birth to the most beautiful princess in the world. Having to Give Birth to my 2 year old daughter was definitely one of the best feeling I have felt in my entire life, I remember when the doctor put her in my arms, all wrapped around in her little blanket, I remember having this huge smile on my face, crying tears of joy, thinking to myself, "you're the most beautiful little princess in the world."
But what happened next put me in an identity crisis….
Today I’m sharing with you my postpartum hair loss story.
Let me tell you about the time I realized that literally ALL my edges, the back of my hair, the side & the front, everything was all GONE... The first thing I could remember was that I cried, it was very emotional for me because as women our confidence comes with our Hair, our Beauty, the way we carry ourselves, It all starts from the crown and once that is messed up, it can really take away your confidence which was a hard challenge for me.
The postpartum hair loss took my edges away from me The world around me was crumbling.
- Dry and itchy scalp
- Flaky hair
- Weak roots
- Edges are all gone, and by that, I mean straight Bald.
- Loss of my confidence due to the hair loss because in my head, I'm thinking I'm not beautiful anymore
- Depression starting to settle in...
I was at a really, really rough period in my life.
As black women, our hair means the world to us, so after this happened to me, I felt as if my confidence was being ripped out of my soul and that's something I wouldn't even wish upon my worst Enemies.
I remember at the time, I had tried everything you can possibly think off,
❌Vitamin pills didn't work
❌Hair growth oils didn't work
❌Doctor prescription didn't work
❌High-end expensive solutions recommended by "EXPERTS"...
The same thing, NOTHING WORKED. I was so frustrated at the time because they all ended up at the same dead-end. It was at this moment, I realize that I had to change my habits and put my focus on what actually matters most.
Instead on wasting my time and money on expensive products, I decided to spend it on nourishing and mixing different oils to try to find a new solution to rejuvenate my scalp. This was the #1 biggest shift for me! That for the first time in what felt like forever, the method I was using actually started producing real results for me!
For the first time in the endless amount of failures that I had while going through my postpartum hair loss, I discovered that nourishing my scalp with a combination of 100% natural organic oils such as Castor Oil, Olive Oil, Sesame Seed Oil, Vitamins E & B and more, helped me rejuvenate my scalp, helped me grow my edges again and grow my hair even longer & healthier then it ever has before!
