I totally feel your pain. I went through a similar situation with a stylist I didn't know very well (my previous stylist had retired to Florida). It will grow back, but you will have to have a lot of patience. Are you taking any supplements? Seriously consider if you aren't (see my Fotki pics). I believe in me some fish oil and MSM!
Thank you for the encouragement. I take a multi vitamin, vitamin c and fish oil tablets daily. I didn't realize fish oil tablets would help with my hair.
