Hair loss affects around one in two women during their lifetime, yet the conversation around post-pregnancy hair loss remains surprisingly quiet.
For many women, the months following childbirth bring a wave of physical and emotional adjustments, and hair loss is an added stressor that is often unexpected and unwelcome.
While not every mother experiences it, postpartum hair shedding is extremely common. Despite this, there has never been a dedicated product line created specifically to address this unique issue — until now.

Australia’s leading hair growth brand, Growth Bomb, has launched the world’s first dedicated Post Pregnancy Range, a three-step haircare system specifically designed to support the needs of women navigating the hormonal and physical changes that can impact hair after childbirth.
The new line includes a shampoo, serum and supplement, each carefully formulated with clinically backed ingredients to help restore hair vitality and improve scalp health.
The launch follows a four-week clinical trial involving 30 women who had recently given birth.
Results were overwhelmingly positive, with 90 percent of participants reporting reduced hair loss, 83 percent agreeing their hair felt healthier, 93 percent noticing a positive change in overall hair condition, and 80 percent seeing improved scalp health by the third week of use.
New mum, Kathryn Denny, who trialled the products, said that at nearly six months postpartum, she expected to be in the depths of hair loss. Instead, her hair was the thickest it had been in a long time, with visible new growth that amazed her. Similarly, another new mum, Maddie Wakeling reported that she had to pause the vitamins because her hair was growing too fast.
The Growth Bomb Post Pregnancy Range is grounded in a deep understanding of the stress, nutrient depletion and scalp imbalance that commonly occur after childbirth.
You can purchase the Post Pregnancy Support Bundle for $94.47 which includes the Post Pregnancy Shampoo, Hair Serum and Supplement.
During pregnancy, elevated estrogen levels keep hair in a prolonged growth phase, which results in fuller hair. After birth, estrogen levels drop rapidly, triggering a large portion of hair follicles to shift into the shedding phase.
Combined with sleep deprivation, stress and nutrient deficiencies, the result can be noticeable thinning, dryness and breakage.
Growth Bomb’s incredible range addresses the root causes of post-pregnancy hair changes by supporting the scalp’s ecosystem and working in sync with the body’s natural hair cycle.
