Wow Im late for monday weigh in.. but consult....272 surgery...260 Today....185 Total loss... - 87 pounds

Hi Jodi, I am about 6 months out and my hair thinning..not loss.. started at about the 4th month. My hair is only thinning from the bottom when I pull at it, like splitting/breaking ends, luckily no thinning from the crown-can't complain. I started taking Biotin at my 1st month and upped the dosage to 5,000mcg when the hair loss started, I think that has contributed to my minimal hair loss. You are going to loose hair inevitably because your loosing weight, surgery or not your just not getting nutrients like you were, but you can minimalize it, which is what I have done a good job of. I don't count my protein like I did in the beginning so I would say the vitamins are a big help. My skin and nails are in really good condition which is part of the Biotin so I highly recommend it. My hair lady also told me to use leave in conditioner daily and to use a protein mask (like pantein) once a week, leave it in for 5 minutes and it restores the moisture. I also ditched the cheap herbal essences shamp and condit and went with something from the professional's store, I have back to Basics raspberry and almonde, so I am actually doing well! I hope this helps you, good luck!
