[quote=Anonymous]DD is 9 yrs old. She has very long healthy hair up to this point. Her hair is about 2.5' long and goes past her bottom. For the past few days I've noticed she is losing hair rapidly. This morning I collected a handful after gently brushing it. I could see it falling out and hitting the chair she was sitting on. She has recently joined a swim team, swimming 4 days per week. She wears a swim cap. We've been trying to be careful with the cap and we braid and wet her hair prior to putting the cap on. To avoid breakage. DD also had lice this past weekend. On sunday we had a lice removal company come in and treat her. They said the product was all natural. They did rigorously comb it out. But it's been 5 days and you'd think any hair that had broken would have fallen out by now. DD also recently came off of blood thinner injections at the end of September. Any ideas? What would you do?[/quote]
