There are some things in life that we just don't appreciate until they're gone...

like having hair in the front of my head. You see, there is an annoying post-pregnancy symptom that some women experience where they lose a lot of hair as their hormone levels drop back to normal. This happened to me. At first, you don't really notice this is happening. Sure, you notice that clumps of hair are coming out of your head when you shower, but it's not until a few months after your hair stops falling out that you really notice the damage that has been done. Because then the hair starts to grow back in. You begin to notice that you have these little spikes all over the front of your head. And the longer they grow, the worse it gets. I now have 1-inch spikes of hair that shoot up in all directions around the front of my face. What's even worse for me is that my hair is curly and frizzy, so after I blow dry it straight, they are all staticky, but then as soon as I sweat or take a shower, they are like little jerry curls all over my head. When I look in the mirror every day, I can't help but think to myself, "Geez, I must have looked so good with a full head of hair." I just didn't know it at the time.
