Hello again :)

been a long time since i have been on i have been having hair loss issues which im praying slow down soon or i will need a wig...ive upped my protein and im praying it stops!!! its been six months since vsg 7/13/15 ive lost 60lbs since surgery day im a slow loser but ill take that im ten pounds from my first goal of 250 i started at 365 a few yrs ago

Get biotin supplement at Costco! Has helped me tremendously!

Its good to hear from you again.  Congratulations on losing 60 pounds. 

I had hair loss - starting at month 3 ending around month 7.  So hopefully, you are near the end of it.  By month 9 I had a healthy crop of recruits sticking straight up on top of my head.  I was so happy to see them that I didn't even mind that they made me look scruffy!   I would have bought a wig if I needed to, but I was able to get by using a body mousse and blow drying my hair to make it look fuller.

By one year, my hair was pretty well recovered.  In the long run, it is so worth it. 

best of luck,

Carol

my texture has changed too did you notice that? its like fuzzy or something...i took biotin forever and didnt see any results took it prior to all this it didnt help me keep anything...i will restart it ...it cant hurt and im desperate here ive always had nice hair and to hair its killing ME lol its paper thin now compared to what it was it has to grow back

From personal experience and what I've read, the hair loss is just the body's reaction to the trauma of surgery that causes the hair to synchronize in its normal cycle of growth, dormancy, falling out and regrowth.  So there's not much to do but make the most of it, and know its temporary. 

I didn't notice a change in texture. I got a short, sassy hair cut, and I enjoyed the different look.  In fact I've kept my hair shorter in an inverted bob which has a nice look. 

I think you'll be well on your way to your hair being back to normal by 1 year post op.

best wishes,

Carol
