That's probably what's making you sick.
That's what they're going to say.
Yeah.
So I started getting it in my mid-20s, just very minimal amount, just in my forehead because I was like, okay, preventative.
I don't want my face to naturally settle into frown lines.
So I was doing that.
And then in August of 2023, I had some Botox.
And then a month later, I was getting my hair done and my hairstylist was like,
Something's not right.
Your hair is falling out like crazy.
You never lose this much hair when I wash your hair.
She's like, you need to go get your thyroid checked.
So then I went and got my thyroid checked and then found out that I had Hashimoto's and that Botox was probably making it that way worse.
And not only was I losing hair, but that week that I had gotten Botox, I was severely sick, like flu symptoms for the entire week.
which had never happened before.
So it was like fever, chills, all of these things.
So after that in August, 2023, I never ever have gotten it again because I was like, I wonder if the next time I get it, I'm going to have full blown Botox poisoning.
My body just started rejecting at the exact same time.
My body also started rejecting my eyelash extension.
Oh my gosh.
