Bald Spot

[sleeve 4 me 910]

Try a pretty headscarf?

Also, I wouldn't go as far as shaving your head....oftentimes, a short haircut will provide enough volume that the hair loss is not as obvious. Try cutting your hair short before you take the drastic step of shaving your head.

That's what I was gonna say hahahaha! I will just go back to my A-line bob:thumbup1:

Wannalise..you are a couple of weeks ahead of me. I get very sad over my hair condition. I started out with very thin and fine hair. I now look like I am taking cancer treatments. I have to remind myself that this is temporary and this weight loss is a good thing.

I got my hair cut much shorter today, and my hairdresser kinda added a lot of curl to it. It looks better, but you can see through the strands of hair (lol) and see my bald spots.

Like others have posted, I get my Protein in daily, take my Vitamins faithfully, and even take flax seed oil for my skin and hair. On the 7th of August I will be 4 months out. I fear that I might be bald by the 6th (supposed last month for 'fallout') month.

Oh well....I will be thinner......and healthier.

Well I'm 3 months out and hopefull by the end od October it will stop if not I will buy a wig. I hate to cut it shorter, it's shoulder lenght but I guess that would help.

My surgeon told me that there wasn't any evidence connecting Hair loss to low Protein or Biotin intake. I know that is the opposite of what many of you were told. If he's right, that explains why some people get all their protein in and still lose hair. Maybe it's like saggy skin or stretch marks: luck of the genetic draw.

I wish Biotin did help.I've been taking it for 3 years now. I started right after band surgery and I am 15 months post op from sleeve surgery.

The funny thing is, my new hair that has come in is curly. I have never had curly hair in my life. It's weird. I have little ringlets

at the nape of my neck.
