When the body undergoes significant changes, the hair and hair follicles can be adversely affected. One example of this is during pregnancy. In this episode of DermTV, Dr. Schultz explains the changes that can occur to your hair post-pregnancy, as well as what can be done about it.

Everyone can have beautiful, healthy, and younger looking skin, and DermTV, the Internet's daily skincare video show, will demonstrate how by revealing expert tips and techniques and by providing real solutions for real skincare issues.

Skincare (whether cosmetic or medical) previously required a trip to your dermatologist or a shopping spree at the pharmacy. And that's if you have a trusted nearby dermatologist or a local informed pharmacy. But not anymore. We at DermTV are committed to making best-in-class dermatology and skincare guidance accessible to everyone, anytime, at your computer.

Every weekday, our host, Dr. Neal Schultz, one of New York's most trusted and respected dermatologists (see bio below), teaches skincare's most timely and timeless issues. Topics include: the best at home techniques and new technology for facial rejuvenation, preventing and fixing sun damage from wrinkles to skin cancer, breaking news in dermatology, general skincare topics, and more.

Should you dye your hair when you're pregnant?

@SaraSidd ive been wondering that as well. i have to wash my hair everyday because i have extremely oily skin. i know it isnt good for my hair but it looks greasy and dirty the very next morning i wake up. i just recently bought a dry shampoo but that doesnt seem to help that much. i guess im gonna continue to wash my hair everyday until i find something for my oily scalp.

Would putting in hair extensions to hide the hair loss affect the hair?
