I have 4c hair dye I believe and I used this in July. It's now October and my hair is falling out like crazy. Not my new growth, but just the texturized parts, literally every time I touch it with my hands or a comb or brush.
From July to the mid September it grew out so healthy, but over time the texturized parts literally broke off and all my ends are thinned out and straight now. There was no curl pattern at all starting mid September. I did a natural protein treatment recently to stop the breakage. It has not helped at all. I have been washing, then leaving deep conditioner and castor oil and other oils on my head and then sealing with baby oil. I do this every night or other night or when I'm not in a protective style before the S curl and after
(which I believe made my hair grow ). I wrap my hair in a satin Durga every night so I'm very moisturized and I'm for certain it's a result of the product I used in July. At first I thought it was stress, but it's been a month of breakage and shedding and I am not that stressed, lol. I now save the hair I loose because it's so much and I'm scared. I don't know what to do. Any thoughts? I was unable to upload photos, but I do have some.

Make sure you are not using any heat products. If you had this done at a salon, go back and ask them what to do.
Sounds like you may need extra conditioning to repair your hair,also this chemical may have alcohol in it,which is not great! Contact a professional and maybe discontinue this use!
My suggestion is to talk to your doctor about the hair loss. I say this because thyroid issues (and several other health issues) can wreck havoc on your hair and it may be a coincidence that it started after a treatment.
If you have an existing thyroid issue, talk to your doctor about the potential need to have blood work and adjust your medicine. If you do not have a known issue, perhaps you should be tested for one.
Safety first with this. If it is thyroid, it can be easy to treat.

It has been 3 months since you dyed your hair with that product. Normally after a hair dye, you can see the damage right away and not 3 months later. If your hair is breaking and falling out now this could be a different issue all together.
