First: you are not imagining it

The pounds are shedding, and suddenly, your hair is too.

More hair in the shower. A thinner ponytail. Dryness. Breakage. Maybe even your brows and lashes feel different.

Don’t panic. And please don’t be ashamed. This is happening to more women than you think.

We dug into the research, listened to what women are experiencing and pulled together the Kreyòl Essence products your hair needs right now.

What dermatologists say

Your hair got the wrong memo.

Rapid weight loss and calorie restriction can trigger telogen effluvium, causing more hairs to leave the active growth phase earlier than usual. When appetite drops, protein and other nutrients your hair needs can drop too.

Anagen

Growing

Where we want to be.

Telogen

Resting + shedding

Where stress can send more hairs early.

Dr. Oyetewa Asempa, director of Baylor College of Medicine’s Skin of Color Clinic, explains that rapid weight loss and calorie restriction can move hairs out of anagen and into telogen early. The American Academy of Dermatology also notes that eating less may mean getting less protein, vitamins and other nutrients needed for healthy hair.

The goal: protect the hair you have, strengthen what feels fragile and support your scalp while your normal growth cycle recovers.

For Black women, the conversation must include dryness and breakage.

Shedding happens at the root.
Breakage happens along the strand.
Both deserve attention. That's why this plan covers both.

Your four-part plan

You're losing weight on purpose. Not your hair.

Four steps for the shedding and breakage: strength, moisture, food and your scalp.

  1. Protein and Bonding hair mask with rice and coconut

    Hair is made of protein. Feed it. 😉

    01 - Fòs

    Protein + Bonding Treatment

    May the Fòs be with you. Fòs is Kreyòl for strength.

    Here’s what often gets overlooked: your hair is made of protein. Each strand is built from keratin, so it needs protein to stay strong — and moisture to stay flexible. When you’re eating less, both can fall short.

    Our treatment delivers serious strengthening support from rice, quinoa and baobab proteins — without the hard, sticky, messy experience of old-school protein treatments.

    Stronger hair. Less breakage. More length retained.

  2. So Deep Repair hair mask on whipped cream texture
    02 - Moisture

    So Deep Repair Hair Mask

    When hair is already shedding, we do not need dryness and breakage taking more of it. Rich moisture after protein helps the hair you still have stay soft, flexible and less vulnerable to snapping.

    Keep the hair. Protect the length.

  3. Hair mask surrounded by protein-rich foods

    I’m sending you my GLP-1 hair grocery list. Save it. Screenshot it. Take it to Whole Foods. 😉

    03 - Eat

    Feed the follicle from within.

    Your body needs protein. Your strands need strength.

    GLP-1s can quiet your appetite, but your follicles still need fuel. Talk with your healthcare provider about getting enough protein, iron, zinc and healthy fats while losing weight.

    • Chicken

  4. S.O.S. Serum and Peptide Density Spray
    04 - Anagen

    S.O.S. + Peptide Density Duo

    Now, let’s talk scalp.

    Telogen is the resting and shedding phase. Anagen is where we want to get back to: growing.

    That is why the scalp gets its own plan. The S.O.S. Serum and Peptide Density Spray bring together targeted scalp care with peptides + Redensyl® — a plant-derived complex from larch and green tea — to support fuller, denser-looking hair and a healthy scalp environment.

Four years to get it right.

I didn’t want to choose between my grandmother’s castor oil and modern science. So I went from the castor fields in Haiti to the lab — and didn’t stop until the formulas were right for every texture.

Questions, answered.

Can I use these while I’m on a GLP-1 medication?

Our products are applied to your hair and scalp — nothing is ingested. If you have questions about your medication, nutrition or any new symptoms, check with your prescriber.

What’s the difference between shedding and breakage?

Shedding is a full hair released from the root, often with a tiny white bulb at the end. Breakage is a strand snapping somewhere along its length. Rapid weight loss can bring on shedding; dryness and fragile strands drive breakage. This plan addresses both.

When should I expect to see a difference?

Hair moves slowly, so give your routine at least 90 days of consistent use. Softness and less breakage usually show up first; fuller-looking hair takes longer.

Is the plan minoxidil-free?

Yes. The S.O.S. Serum and Peptide Density Spray are minoxidil-free and made for all hair types.

Why protein first, then moisture?

Your hair is made of protein. Protein helps reinforce fragile strands; following with a rich moisture mask brings back softness and flexibility so hair bends instead of snapping.
