Help me please! I'm losing my hair

[Inactive Profile 104]

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

Aww your cute with your short hair, I think I'd die that short , iv not cut it ( but trims ) in so long , something ab us cherokee women we look better w long hair, but heck I might be bald if I keep going like I am

Might not look like much put that's one run threw with my fingers just now, so so sad

Yep, I'm in exactly the same boat. I have hair that comes down to my boobs. Its layered and very fine naturally. The lower tier and the sides of my head look so sparse, I'm giving consideration to having it cut off into a bob. Every time I take out the hairband which has secured it, my heart sinks. Wrapped up in the band is what seems like half my hair.< /p>

My hair grows so slowly and it took me 3 years to grow it out from a bob the last time. Its quite depressing having to face that again.

I really don't think that anything can be done to stop it. We just have to focus on trying to hit our goals and hoping for the best.

I share your pain, sister

Iv lost 75 of 128, in 4 months, but my hair is upsetting, your right lets just stay focused on being sexy with or with out hair! Lol

Wow, that's a lot of weight to lose and so quickly.. Congratulations and commiserations in equal measure!

There really is nothing we can do about and as you say, we should Celebrate what we have achieved.

We are most certainly sexy with or without hair. I think I might invest in some wigs or something

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!

I know what you mean. I've been a emotional mess, and I gotta get back in good spirits. Good luck to you, and thanks for sharing that with me.

Thanks I just ordered some Brazilian hair from hair imports and I'm about to get it put in today.

I don't wear weave but i know that for some who do wear it like sewn in that can cause even more stress on your hairshaft...I think I will wear wigs for about a year if this happens to me....Good luck to all!

Hi I know it's very distressing loosing your hair, I haven't yet had my op but I'm a hairdresser. As people have said your body is using all the nutrients in other parts of your body. Your also eating a lot less oils and fats. This has a major effect on your hair and skin. Try including in your Protein essential fatty acids, oil rich food like avocado, nuts and seeds, drink as much Water as you can. If you doctor allows you take additional Vitamins and include some oils like Vitamin E, oil of evening primrose. I don't think you can totally prevent the Hair loss but these things could help to reduce your hair loss and promote healthy Hair growth. Another thing which will help your hair grow is scalp massage. Gently massage your scalp when conditioning your hair, this encourages blood flow to your scalp which encourages cell renewal. For the hair you have left, be kind to it. Don't over use heat styling products, try not to put stress on it which will help prevent breakage and split ends. I hope at least some of this helps. Good look with your journey

Monitor your Protein intake and in the meanwhile try taking hair skin and nail supplements. They contain Biotin which boosts Hair growth and may help you. I take the hair skin and nail supplements from Vita4Life and they contain 2000 mcg biotin an addition of 650 mg MSM that helps in boosting hair growth along with maintaining healthy skin and nails.
