Go slick for a while. To me no hair, beats some hair on a woman. If it grows back fine, if not short or bald has it's advantages too. sage

Why was it falling out in the first place?
.........nope, seen nout related to SCI/baldness..........mmmm wait.............or were you looking for a totally different forum.... AA maybe?..........Alopecia Areata

Stress........encompasses all which bares no relevance to SCI.
Fair nough, there may be a likel bit but not nough to that level, then again I believe pressure is for tyres and stress plays no part in my life..........gonna buy some cool wigs though......me likes dressing up, thanks Kiwi for the tip

Firstly, it's a choice instead of condition, it looks kept. You've got less maintenance. If and when it grows back, it does so evenly. And Sade didn't look bad nor Demi Moore when they sported the look. sage

@wheels well my dr. @ magee rehab said that for up to 6 monthes after a sci hair will fall out in some patients and I lost more than half of mine. Don't think its stress related because although this is very stressful my whole life has been filled with stressful thing most people couldn't even imagine and I always had full thick hair. He said some patients develop acne which I did about my third month in the hospital and I never had a pimple before in my life!! Its messed up.
HANGING IN THERE

Stress and hormone changes can cause hair loss....

The answer to your question, "When will my hair stop falling out?" is so incredibly simple that it glides right past us.
WHEN THERE AIN'T NONE LEFT!
WHEN THERE AIN'T NONE LEFT!
when it absolutely, positively, has to be destroyed overnight, call the Marines.
