Hair Extensions After Childbirth
Quick answer: Postpartum shedding is normal and usually settles between 6 and 12 months after birth. It is best to add extensions once the heaviest shedding has passed, using light nano bonds that protect the recovering hair. Book on WhatsApp.
Why hair sheds after birth
During pregnancy hair often stops shedding and looks fuller. After birth the hormones shift and the held hair falls at once, which feels dramatic but is normal. It usually settles within 6 to 12 months.
When to add extensions
Adding bonds during the heaviest shedding is not ideal, because the base is changing fast. Many clients wait until the shed slows, then use light nano bonds to add back volume while the hair recovers.
Gentle approach
The master uses the lightest bonds and spreads them, so the recovering hair is not stressed. Send a photo on WhatsApp and you will get an honest read on whether now is the right time.
