Please can only people who know about Telogen effluvium or similar reply, thankyou.
Hi everyone
I have been going through hair loss Telogen effluvium due to stress which is easing off now after 3 scary months.
A month ago I wanted to get my much needed roots re-highlighted (with bleach) as I have all my life. The last time they were highlighted was Dec 2012 before the Telogen effluvium started.
My Doc said that this would be completely OK and voluntarily wrote an official note to my hair-dresser saying that this would not effect any shedding. My hairdresser, at first said that she would do a test area and then when it came to it, she said that she had spoken to a dermatologist and said she wouldnt do it. I understand she has to protect her business etc, but the Doc note covered that. Plus it was only a test area.
Now the shedding is easing, would it be safe to have a test area bleached?
Has anyone come across this before? Any views welcome and appreciated.
I am in a muddle over the conflicting opinions and I dont want to go to a different h-dresser I dont trust who would prob do it.
