It is unavoidable...but I started taking Biotin & prenatal Vitamins a year before surgery. Since surgery (I am 12 weeks out today), I started using biotin/collagen shampoo/conditioner & I am styling my hair less right now using less products on it. I haven't experienced it yet, but I know it usually hits around the 4 month mark...

Best of luck to you!

It's kind of just something to live with. I lost half my hair at 3 months. But it's growing back in!!! Lol

I just deal with it, it'll come back

Oh!! I'm six months out and my routine is..... Um.. Oh... Well... It doesn't matter actually because it fell out anyway! :P

But really if its going to happen its going to happen. I noticed it more than anyone else around me. It started at 4 months and now at 6 it's stopped and I'm hopeful it will come back.

The best thing you can do is just know that it will happen to some extent and come to peace with it and know its temporary.

Easy for you to say!!!! :P

I freaked the heck out for a long time. No use crying over spilt milk... Or in this case lost hair.

My husband told me to officially get over myself, he REFUSED to do anymore nightly scalp examinations. So I have taken matters into my own hands with a mirror. It's funny the OCD/Addictive behaviors that pop up, now that my old buddy "food" has been replaced. Seriously, shopping, realty TV you name it stuff is scaring me. One of the biggest reasons I have been MIA around here, staying up till 4 am on VST was getting out of hand. Just needed to rant :wacko:

Maybe clip in hair extensions would work. I Use them all the time And it's convenient and easy to use. And also gives you versatility if you want to also you don't have to worry about damaging it because it is a weave. Make sure that you bye human here from a local black beauty Supply store

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
