HAIR LOSS - Toppik Hair Fibers
OK.... so I'm starting to lose hair and I'm the kinda girl that would freak out. I don't regret having surgery but need a fixer until the hair starts to grows back. I went on to Amazon and got Toppik hair fibers. I just wanted to let everyone know what I thought. Well dang it really does work!!! I did buy the colour according to their colour chart and should have read the reviews. I got dark brown and it's pretty near black so grey one lighter than you think. Wash, dry and style hair. Part hair then dab on really close/touching the container to head. Pat with hand. You can even comb hair. Spray with hair spray. The reviews were correct and if you scratch your head you will get the fibers under your nails but I just pick them out. I will deal with that to not have bald spots. When I got in the shower and washed my hair there was black fiber all over the shower but came off by splashing water. I WILL be using this until the hair grows back.
P.S. I don't have the blonde hair right now as my picture. I wanted to keep it natural until my hair grows back.

Thanks for the review. I just bookmarked it on Amazon for future reference. Never heard of this product before! I haven't experienced any hair loss yet, but I know it might be coming. It's good to hear you're finding it helpful.

I already have thin hair and use this product.
I also have been using hair extensions (Glam Seamless) from time to time - esp for weddings. It gives me a bit more confidence when I feel I need it.
Also LUSH Sea Salt Big shampoo gives a tonne of volume.
I'm a bit worried about the hair loss part of the process because I'm already starting with little hair as it is. I figure it's far away and I'll just deal with it if and when it happens.

I'm the same way. I started with thinned hair. One month after surgery I found out that the surgery put me straight through menopause within a 1 month period. CRAZY! So, I'm HOPING that the hair loss is due to the surgery and not menopause. Either way I NEED to have my hair covered. I will look up the shampoo. I've never heard of that before. THANKS so much !!!
Oh...and....it's better to be 'thin' and 'thin' than to be thick...hehehe

You're VERY WELCOME!!! Love this board. I've gotten so much useful and helpful information. So great to have so many wonderful people on here that understand. Just this morning when arriving at work someone noticed how I've lost a lot of weight so decided to tell them. Pretty much got negative feedback. I told them that they should get 'educated' about the process it's saved my life already.

Oh nice....I didn't know that. I'll have to check the price. I get free shipping from Amazon so the price was $33 all together.
