jasmineinmymind 204 Posted January 3, 2019 I’m so scared of this. I look horrible with short hair, like people have even told me as much. If I have to cut it short I’m going to be really depressed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don’t freak yourself out just yet, maybe you won’t experience any hair loss? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MegPRN 204 Posted January 3, 2019 I'm in the middle of bad Hair loss right now. Every time I run my fingers through my hair a few strands come out, and it comes out..not quite in clumps, but a ton whenever I wash my hair (every 3-4 days). I don't have bald spots (yet) and my hair was ridiculously thick to start with, so it's not showing much and seems to be coming from all over my scalp rather than a specific spot, but it still feels bad. I started increasing my Protein intake, and am taking Biotin and l-lysine. How long did the hair loss last for those of you who went through it? I'm worried it'll keep on like this forever, every time I don't eat enough protein or something, and I'll end up looking like I have mange. When did it start growing back in?

SkinEMinE 9 Posted January 3, 2019 You look fantastic. Ultra adorbs. My nutritionist said that Biotin in high concentration is supposed to help with hair and nails, but that works for you. Rock it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did lose mine till my 5 Months only lasted for 3 weeks .My Health is a tad more important than my Hair . I could be going through Chemo and be completely bad .

Sprinkles1 358 Posted January 4, 2019 Thank you everyone for your support and compliments! I'm not 100% a fan on my hair right now but it's coming along. I started losing my hair about 3-4 months after surgery. Honestly, it was my fault. I got sick after surgery and could barely eat. I didn't keep up with my Protein and Vitamins either. I lost a good portion of my hair within a month span. When I say I just a bald spot, I mean it was so bad that a top hair piece couldn't even cover it. I had no choice but to shave my head. I wore a wig at work and no one noticed. I hated these last 3 months but i'm happier now. Hair loss It'll be okay! Make sure you're keeping up with your vitamins, eating enough and getting in that protein!!! I was not.

Are you finding that the losses are visible when it’s growing back in? Or not really? I can't even tell where the losses were previously but it's probably because I shaved my entire head lolSent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app 2 ProudGrammy and AEdoesRnY reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When did it start growing back in?My hair started to grow back in literally immediately. It kinda pissed me off! For some reason when I had long hair all I did was lose it. I shave my head and BOOM growth. Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app 1 GreenTealael reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frustr8 7,886 Posted January 4, 2019 Has anyone who lost or shaved off their hair, had it regrow a different texture or shade? Just something I thought of tonight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
