How I Finally Started Growing My Postpartum Edges Back After 3 Years

Postpartum hair loss is humbling. My edges were already thin before kids, but after my son? Whew. It felt like they packed up and left for good. For three years, I tried everything castor oil for edges (which left my scalp itchy), rosemary and peppermint oil, deep conditioners, sew-ins, wigs, silk presses, protective styles girl, you name it. Nothing was really working.

So when Wellbel Hair Vitamins showed up on my doorstep, I figured… why not? Worst case, I’d give my readers an honest Wellbel review. Best case? Maybe I’d finally see some real hair growth after pregnancy.

Why My Postpartum Edges Were Struggling

Before we get to the receipts (and I have receipts), here’s the backstory:

• I’m a low-effort hair girl at heart—I love wigs and sew-ins.

• But switching to silk presses on already-thin edges? Big mistake. My hairline took a hit.

• Oils helped with strength, but nothing brought my postpartum hairline back.

By the time Wellbel showed up, it really felt like divine timing.

The First Bottle (June–August)

Wellbel vitamins require three capsules a day, which felt like a lot at first. I wasn’t even that consistent in June and traveled during July , but by the end of my first bottle in August, I started noticing something shocking: my edges

Even better? My eyelashes were growing too. Totally unexpected, but I wasn’t mad at it.

Protective Styling Changes That Helped

While taking the vitamins, I also changed how I did my wigs:

• I stopped sewing them down on my edges.

• I braided my hair in a way that gave my hairline a break.

• I kept moisturizing my thinning edges with African Pride’s strengthening oil (peppermint, rosemary, sage).

That alone reduced the itchiness I used to get from oils.

The Second Bottle + The Shampoo & Conditioner

This time around, Wellbell sent me their Detox Shampoo and Restorative Conditioner. I’ll be honest—I was skeptical.

• The Detox Shampoo left my hair squeaky clean (almost too clean). My hair felt stripped.

• But then I used the Restorative Conditioner, which is infused with hyaluronic acid and a hydrating cream. Girl. My curls came back to life. Juicy, defined, and bouncy—like my heat damage never happened.

I also started using a scalp massager for hair growth while the conditioner sat for five minutes. Between that and leaving my postpartum edges alone, I noticed less breakage, less itch, and more definition.

The Results (So Far)

• My curls are back.

• My edges are filling in (finally).

• My lashes? Longer than before.

It feels like my hair is breathing again—and it’s only been two bottles.

Yes. 10/10.
If you’ve been struggling to regrow postpartum edges or dealing with hair loss after pregnancy, I’d say give Wellbel Hair Vitamins a try. Between the supplements and their shampoo/conditioner, my hair is stronger, my curls are back, and for the first time in years, I feel hopeful about my hairline.

This isn’t the end of my journey—I’ll keep updating as I finish the second bottle. But for now? I’m calling this a win.
