After ranting on the female hair loss sub, I figured I might as well call for help in here.
In the upcoming weeks/month I am going to move to the Kansai area, I am waiting for my COE to come before getting my visa.
I have been struggling with hairloss for a few times now and it is starting to really to bother me. I havn’t started a treatment yet and timing wise it is going to be difficult to seek for a dermatologist before my departure. I am looking into all the options I have with my hair but I am lost, and since I will be working in a hotel, I am not sure to what extent I can go with my appearence.
I know it is not very detailed but if it echoes with anyone I really want to hear about your experience. Did you start treatment (the over the counter ones) before seeking medical advice? Did you bring your own from your country or had to buy it after landing? How did the process go?
Thank you to anyone who read this and to anyone who will reply.

OP, I’m very sorry you’re going through this. This is in no way to undermine your situation/condition, as I don’t know the source of your struggle, but I’ve been struggling with hair loss for many years now and the only thing that really turned it around has been completely changing my diet to carnivore/animal-based. The change I’ve seen within 2 months was jaw-dropping. If this is something you may want to consider, Japan is a really awesome place to pursue this type of nutrition regimen. Best of luck either way!
