Ever since surgery June 13th of this year my hair is really dry, brittle, yes I get it colored at the salon, a low light and highlights every 7 weeks but ever since my surgery it just breaks off at the ends like its fried. My stylist suggested Biotin. With that said, I read in a magazine tonight about Viviscal but didn't like the reviews on Walgreens.com about oily skin and oily hair from Viviscal but it does promote Hair growth and healthy hair for thinning hair which I do have also. I do use a flat Iron on it. Anyone of you girls out there a stylist and can shed some light on here for me??? Help!!!

I use Nioxin on my clients with thinning hair...for breakage I'd recommend Paul Mitchells Strength line they have a great leave in spray and also a deep condition

Right now she has me using It's a 10 Miracle Mask conditioning everyday, pretty pricey but hey I don't care, it helps but by the time I dry my hair you can see the fried ends again and I put my dryer on cool. I have a Chi flat Iron and don't turn it up very high also a ION digital flat Iron too that I set on 250. OMG I never thought I'd have hair issues. makes me want to indulge on fatty foods just to get some fat into my diet again. NOT! You didn't hear me say that.

Ask your stylist she can get those products for you at the supply store if she's willing to :) .. I get my clients any product they special request and I don't carry in my salon..

      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.
