Help me please! I'm losing my hair

Hi Belladonna, I get them at the local health food store. The store is called family nutrition but I'm sure you could get them at other health food stores. I found them on Amazon too, here's a link

My hair is falling out to the point my scalp is showing, I sat in my bath room crying tonight, my husband just came in and sat with me, I can see the hurt on his face for my hurt. It's such a helpless feeling, it's bitter sweet, I'm losing weight but I'm losing my hair. It's mentally hard to see all the hair in my hands, on the floor, and all over my house, I just pray it will stop soon, and grow back. I just wanted to share my hair lose with others as it's be coming so hard for me see, I felt so alone till I read this post!

DreamBig, I know how you feel . . . I lost more than half my hair prior to surgery just due to alopecia (bad genetics, bad luck). Since your scalp is showing, if you haven't, you might want to try a fill-in powder like Nanogen or Toppik. I have used both of them and they work great -- you just shake them into your hair and they cover up your scalp and make your hair look thicker. My recommendation is to buy a couple of different shades - the one you think will match your hair, and one lighter. You can buy them at lots of online places, just Google. You can find Toppik at stores like Sephora and Sally Beauty too.

Here's a video showing how Nanogen works -- Toppik is pretty much the same thing.

Hi There: It is heartbreaking to hear this. A woman's hair is often her mojo... I know it has always been mine but I have another suggestion. My friend had gastric bypass 5 years ago. She always had thin hair. She wears a 'fall'.... its like a hair extension that clips to the crown of your head. No one can tell its not her hair and it looks amazing. I will totally be doing that if I begin to shed as well. They are inexpensive and they have all shades so you can pretty much get a close match to your own natural hair. She also wears false eyelashes and I swear she looks like a movie star most days. Don't fret so much, I know it is easier said than done but my surgical team assured me Hair loss is from rapid weight loss and when you get to your goal weight and you body stabilizes...you will indeed grow hair back. I hope this helps a little.

Amen, y can't we lose in those areas, lol. Question tho...I bought those caps prior to surgery and they are big, do u all swallow them w/o choking or do u open and pour it in somthn to take? I'm scared to take my small nexium capsule, so I put it in my 2oz drink and take it. Thx.

I guess they sell Biotin that is dissolvable cherry flavored put under your tongue. They sell it on Amazon and Walmart Natrol brand. Take 10,000 mcg per day.

I am 6 months out and my hair was falling out like crazy. Luckily I had a large amount of hair but seeing so much fall out was depressing so I got it all cut off and am now sporting a pixie cut. The hair falling out is hardly noticeable with it this short

[Ballermom 803]

I definitely experienced Hair loss. I think making sure you get your Protein in is important. 11 months out my hair is growing. I slacked off on my protein for a we while now trying to get back to basics.

I do wear wigs even before though.

Good luck
