Hair loss :(

[bookworm1983 28]

I didn't really notice my Hair loss at first. I wore my hair in a ponytail all the time and thought that the band was just stretching out. Boy was I worng! I had my sister, who is a hairdresser, cut off the dead ends and cut/style it in such a way that it at least looked fuller. Just be gentle with your hair My surgon said that hair loss pretty much stops at the 6 month mark for most. I take so many Vitamins, supplaments and medication that I am wary to add another.

6 month mark from surgery or 6 months after the Hair loss started??? I can’t take even 1 more day of this or I’m going to look like the girl in the movie The Craft

How about Sally Beauty Supply or maybe also check and see if there's a website for Nioxin.?PS www.Nioxin.com, I went on Google and found them. And I think you can also access their products on Amazon. Hope this helps a little, not impossible I'll need them myself, I'm a redhead (born that way) and we start out with fewer hairs per square inch than blondes and maybe 50% less than brunettes. hair is like a boomerang, it will return to you when its ready to![emoji106][emoji14]

I got a deal of nioxin on Amazon for 25 bucks

I started taking Biotin around 3 months prior to having surgery.. I’m looking into Nioxin but unsure of which system to use since I have color and chemically treated hair.. :-/

Best thing to do is go to the nioxin website and it helps you determine which one will work for you. I use system 1 but my mom uses system 3 it just depends on the individual person

My hairdresser steered me far away from nioxin and told me to get ultrax labs hair surge.. I will try anything tho at this point.. I just want my long thick hair back

If your hair dresser told you to do that one I’d probably go with that one. My mom ended up losing her hair and she’s a Bariatric patient as well and she gets head injections every two weeks and does nioxin and her hair is coming in nicely. My Hair loss just started so we’re just to get a jump start on it

Bald headed women are reputed to be sexy, I think Grace Jones the model/actress said that but she shaves her head bald anyway , she may be biased?[emoji10]

Mine just started this week... so the stuff should be here tomorrow.. this is probably the worst part of the entire surgery aspect for me..

I would look terrible with a bald head.. some women can pull it off, but I’m not one of them

We started noticing mine quite a bit when I’m in the shower but outside the shower I don’t notice that much.

Mine is the worst in the shower.. then it falls all day over my uniform at work and it’s black and my hair is blonde so it really shows up.. embarrassing.
