Does anyone know if its safe to color your hair after surgery? I was banded 11.19.10. I only use the semi perm colors, just wondering if it would be ok. I will call stylist tomorrow, but she may not know.

I get highlights every 11 weeks and have had no problem with it. I did lose quite a bit of hair, but that would have happened with or without the highlights.

My hair stylist said the semi perm colors are fine. She told me to condition this week with a dense conditioner then do it this weekend. Yes, I will do it Saturday. I do it myself. I have dark red hair and it just needs brightening.

Thanks for letting us know. I also do mine myself. I will do it this weekend before I have to go back to work. Thanks again for letting us know what your stylist said.

I use permanent hair coloring. I remember when my girlfriend was pregnant years ago, her color never came out as intended due to hormonal changes. After baby was born, no problem. I hope a few more people chime in if using permanent hair they've used for a long enough time to know what is 'normal', and if results changed after surgery.

I'm a hairdresser and I wouldn't even worry about it !

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
