A young woman has revealed how she lost huge chunks of her hair due to stress, and struggled to find a remedy for the startling loss of her once healthy locks.
Camilla, who doesn’t want her last name to be shared, told Daily Mail Australia she began losing her hair last May during the UK’s strict months-long lock down.
The woman who lives in London worked with naturopaths over zoom, tried caffeine shampoos, changed her diet and took up to 26 supplements a day to try to make her hair stop falling out.
But nothing worked and the supplements just made her feel nauseous.

A young woman has revealed how she lost huge chunks of her hair due to stress, and struggled to find a remedy for the startling loss of her once healthy locks.
Camilla, who doesn’t want her last name to be shared, told Daily Mail Australia she began losing her hair last May during the UK’s strict months-long lock down
‘It was very stressful not knowing if it would get worse or grow back at all or even stay like that forever,’ she said.
At first Camilla didn’t worry too much, the fast-developing bald patch could be hidden as it was at the back of her head and she was stuck at home so no one could see her anyway.
But as the strict lock down measures began to relax and Camilla was able to head back outside and see her friends she became self conscious.
And her hair was still falling out.
By late August the top of the young woman’s head started shedding making her hair loss impossible to hide.
‘That was the worst for me as it was visible to friends and we were out of lock down around the summertime and I was socialising more which made me more conscious of it,’ she admitted.
She also revealed she nearly bought a wig to hide her hair loss.
Camilla was ‘at the end of her tether’ when she came across the JSHealth hair and energy vitamins – and figured she should give them a go.
She has describe the pills as ‘life savers’ and shown off her amazing new hair, noting she no longer has any baldness.

‘It’s so much better and I am feeling incredibly positive about my hair,’ she said.
‘My hair never looks tidy as regrowth spikes out in all different directions, but I am just so grateful that my hair is growing back and it’s growing back thicker than it was before,’ she said.
It has been a long process, she started taking the pills five months ago, but she is thrilled with the results and hopes all of her hair will soon be the same length.
‘It feels amazing, I’m still on my hair growth journey but the bald patches aren’t visible anymore which is fab,’ she said.
She said she was shocked when the hair started growing back because she had been so skeptical after trying so many methods.
JSHealth founder and renowned nutritionist Jess Sepel told Daily Mail Australia stories like Camilla’s help her get out of bed in the morning and are the reason she started her company
Some hair specialists had told her the only way her hair would recover would be to try hormone therapy or steroid injections.
Camilla knew that such radical treatments had to be a last resort.
JSHealth is an Australian company founded and headed by nutritionist Jess Sepel, she was thrilled with Camilla’s results and said stories like her help her get out of bed in the morning.
‘It pushes me to jump out of bed and keep building a company that serves for the greater good and genuinely has an impact on peoples lives. We are not just another vitamin company,’ she said.
‘This testimonial was a perfect example of what JSHealth was built upon – helping women feel more confident in their skin. There is nothing that makes my heart sing more. This is why we do what we do,’ she said.
The vitamin range is made in Australia – but the company continue to expand and is now available globally.
Their expansion into the UK has helped build a strong community of JSHealth women on the other side of the world – leading to success stories like Camilla’s.
