Topic: RE: Hair loss? Hair color? help?
Hi Eldy,

Sorry we haven't really got a chance to talk much at the meeting but I know your doing well and you look fantastic!!!!

I made the mistake of coloring my hair 4 months out, I was losing some hair at the time but not much. However, now I am 6 months out and my hair is falling out by the handfuls. I am taking biotin but I don't see any change and I have spent so much money on hair products from the salon and Sally's with little to no results so far. I could use to touch up my roots but I am to scared to color it again, I'm afraid I'll be bald soon. lol

Sorry, I know this is not the answer you was looking for but I thought you should know my personnel experience. If you do find something that works can you pass it along.

Thanks,
Lisa

Hi,

I am Rhody63's other half and have made the decision to join the rest of you on the loser's bench!  Thanks to all for the great support you give to all including support groups, online and especially to those angels like Rob! You have all inspired me to make the lifestyle change along wih Chris.  I have finished all of my testing, and If all continues to go on schedule, my surgery will be August 25th.  See you all at the next support group!

Eldy,
I'd take some of that wonderful conditioner they give you with the color and mix it with the shampoo you're gonna rinse it out with so that it is silkier and doesnt pull as much?It may take longer to rinse but???

my 2 cents......
