Anyone Else Experience Hair Issues Due To Retinol?

[WheeljackG1]

part of my hair issues are due to the Retinol I was using to control my acne. It caused my hair to change texture, become very brittle, and fall out or break very easily. My hair never did this before Retinol, and I had no idea that Retinol could do this. Once I figured it out I immediately stopped using it. It's been about 4 weeks, but I am nervous it will not to back to normal. I've read that it usually goes back to normal after you stop using it, but I've heard that's not always the case. Very scared.

Anyone been through this experience and have some advice?

Never heard anything like this before. I use differin and a retinol serum every night.

From my understanding vitamin a is a balance. If your too low adding a will help you. If you already have a lot and go into overload it hurts you. I supposed that was what was happening to me.
