Looking for a hairdresser that deals with "depression hair". Any suggestions? TIA

I’m sorry you’ve been having a rough time. There are two places that you could contact, but I qualify my suggestions by stating that I only have 2nd hand info, not personal experience. The first is to contact the hairstyling schools, H&Co Academy 204-717-1700or Systems Beauty College 204-728-8843. The instructors are experienced practitioners in the industry and have dealt with a wide range of hair problems. They will guide their students in the proper procedure for detangling/dematting, or whatever your need is. Plus their services are reasonably priced. My second suggestion is to contact Erin Wannop at Hair by Erin, at Evolve Studio 204-573-9706. She is very good with naturally curly hair which can easily get tangled and matted, and tends to be dry, and has lots of experience with it. So, best wishes to you and I hope this helps.

Erin is fantastic at what she does!

Don't sweat it so much. At least you got a full head of hair I'm assuming? I know a few people, men and women who are losing their hair and thinning DRAMATICALLY, due to stress. I believe theirs even a condition where some people even start greying and turning white. Well a male friend told me that. Don't quote me. I hope you're not thinning or balding. Not that thinning or being bald is bad but I just think this would be even more stressful on you during this time of need. Good luck !!

Depression is a very really hard thing.  
 
And telling people not to stress it so much. Is not helpful and belittling their mental state.  
Plus adding others have hair problems "dramatically" is a unworthy response. As you are dismissing their emotions as well.  
 
Can send them further into to feeling worthless as they can't "buck up"  
 
I have and sometimes again been in a depression so know very well how one feels.
