Hair Loss After Surgery



Recommended Posts

You mean like Jamie Lee Curtis in those yogurt commercials? Not my taste. Nope.

As a guy, I have always liked women with long hair and love the fact that my wife has flowing long beautiful hair. She of course can decide to chop it off as it is her choice first and foremost, but I would not like it and it would take a long time for me to adjust to it being short.

Just saying, the change from long to pixie would be pretty big for you and are you sure? I have always seen a women's long, flowing and beautiful hair as an asset. I guess do what is right for you and makes you feel the best.

Nooo... not like that. Umm.... I can't really think of a famous person who has the cut I want, unless you're familiar wit the latest Battlestar Galatica? The character Starbuck at one point in the show has her hair cut exactly like I want. Its a longer pixie cut. And I love long hair, like I said, I've always had it. I've also always used to to hide behind. And when I rach goal weight, I want to experience short hair at least once, while my confidence is flying high.

Besides, I'm not out to impress anyone but myself.... and maybe my fiance, but he supports me no matter what. :)

hi Everyone!

My name is Kelsey, I'm 10 years out from RNY, and have lost over 256 pounds. I went through pretty intense hairloss myself - probably about 60%. It did eventually grow back, but not the same as it was before. I created a video about it on my YouTube Channel if you'd be interested in checking it out,

Your hair will come back -- be patient, take your Vitamins, get in your Protein and have faith :)

Holy necro-thread revival. Do you realize you just bumped a +5 year old thread to pimp your youtube channel?

Here is a list of 72 theads within the last year that would more sense to push your channel on.
