Wow I resonate so much with this! I have always been known for my hair and have often wondered how I will cope with it changing as I age - my mother’s thinned a lot, fortunately she looks good with short, neat hair, but my mane has always been big, wild and curly, and is something I identify with and also hide behind. It is such an important point to make, how society views female hair thinning and loss. Thank you for this post x

Well said, Hanna. Hair loss in women is terribly common, and we don’t hear much about the worry and anguish it causes.

apparently it's ROSEMARY, and by a landslide. I didn't grow much of it this year ( i never have much luck with it) so I haven't processed any, but I think you just added a project for this week! rosemary hair oil! lol! I'll send you a batch if I like how it works!
