Does she color you root to tip out just your roots? Just curious since your ends are breaking. I'll assume just you're roots since you generally don't.double process unless you're reprocessing an under processed bleach job :)

Randi I'm assuming she just does my roots, she foils it. She thinks it's my diet. Thank you all so much for the info. Can't wait to get the products in hand to get started on my hair restoration...:)

Biotin is great- I take 2 500 mg capsules a day- one in the morning and one at lunch. They're about the size of a tic-tac. It's really been helping me- I had my hair break off and be crazy too, never any hair issues ever, it freaked me out! I do know that anesthesia wreaks havoc sometimes.

It has also really helped my nails as well!

I use coconut oil on my hair. But the one major thing I've found is if I dont get enough Protein on a regular basis, my hair falls out-BAD!

well my hair isn't falling out so I really don't think it's a Protein issue. I do have a hard time getting my Water intake in, in a days time so maybe I'm a bit dehydrated every day. the ends of my hair are brittle, dry and breaking off, it looks fried and frizzy. I just got my hair colored/cut/styled Saturday and my stylist was shocked at the condition and the only thing she could think of was my diet change and to take Biotin. I just ordered the Paul Mitchell Strength and protectant spray from Sleekhair.com its cheaper there. I'm sure I could have gone to Walmart salon and checked to see if they carried the products but sometimes they don't carry all of the products you need, their hair products are cheaper too. The girl that does my hair at my salon carries "It's a 10" products and the other 2 girls carry something else to sell. Wish I could take this pic of me on here and bottle it up as my hair is healthy here and my sides are longer, she has had to cut my sides shorter and it looks horrible trying to cut away the damaged part. Here I come Biotin!!!

thanks Sarah, I certainly didn't expect surgery to take its toll on my hair this bad, whew. Its frizzy sometimes. I do have the Its a 10 Serum but have not used it. The orange cap item you are talking about is that the deep conditioner that you rinse out?

Yes it is..when I put it in my hair I also put on a shower cap so it soaks in and the heat from the Water opens the folicals..I leave it on for ant 5-7 mins...if u have a day that u have nothing to do..wash ur hair put the deep conditon on with a cap and just hang out in ur house all day or sleep with it in..once a week I sleep with my deep condition...also do u wash ur hair e everyday?..since ur hair has been chemically procssed I would go to every other day..and get some dry shampoo..big sexy hair makes a great one so does KMS...even the sauve one is good I just don't like the smell of it

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
