So, since I started taking Effexor my family started commenting that my normally really lovely red hair has been getting darker. I ignored it, thought it was maybe from the long winter or something, but --
now my hair is a completely dull brown.
I looked it up and people keep reporting that your hair color can change on Effexor, and it's actually really upsetting me! At the least, I'm finally reducing my Effexor and have only been on it for a few months... so I'm hoping my hair will go back to normal. My hairdresser said that she can see my red hair growing back, so there's hope.
Honestly, I think out of all the side-effects I've encountered -- even the threats of cancer from my immunosuppressants/biologics -- I think this is the one that's upset and shocked me the most.
Has anyone else ever experienced this?
