Hair loss - what do you use to help hide it?



Recommended Posts

I started to lose a lot at month 4. Now at month 6 it doesn't seem to have slowed. I know a lot of people on here say it's not noticeable to others etc. I have thin hair to begin with and its very noticeable. I tried a few sprays but they appear too dark. I am going to try the next shade up. I also might buy the brand Toppik. I might be able to try and flip my part but I am starting to freak out a little. When does it slow down? When does it start to grow back. I have been my Multivitamin which has Biotin, getting my Protein etc. I am going to start extra biotin and have already been using Nioxin. I am afraid to try clip in hair that it would damage the hair I still have left.

I used both the L'Oreal spray and the Toppik. I preferred the L'Oreal. Good luck. This part is annoying but it will stop.

I already had fine and thin hair before the WLS due to thyroid issues and heredity. I use Minoxidil, which is working to grow back some hair, Nioxxin hair Shampoo and conditioner and scalp treatment for thickening, and taking Biotin. I comb my hair opposite its natural part to boost it up a little.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
