Crap, am I gonna lose my hair again post plastics?

I have not experienced any hair loss after my plastics.

Awesome, and you had 2 rounds! Encouraging! But did you lose any after your DS? Thanks! XOLori

Yes, I lost hair after my DS. It was long and straight and started to look scraggly. I got it cut a little shorter and in layers and you can't tell looking at it how thin it is.

I was so pleased when I didn't lose any after my plastics.

Thanks so much, Renee- your photos look awesome, very encouraging! XOLori

I had a lot of hair loss after my rny and it didn't stop until about 8-9 months out. I was scared that it would start up again after plastics (which was 1 yr post rny). Luckily, I have not had any hair loss as of yet (my tt was 11/4/09 and my BL was 12/9/09). Good luck.

I will wish you a hirsute New Years and hope you avoid the shed! XOLori

I am three weeks post surgery and have not seen any hair loss.  I did loose some after WLS.

Hoping that will be the case- but mine didn't fall out til 12-16 weeks post op. Someone said prenatal vitamins will help.... Thank you! XOLori

I had shedding post RNY, and today I am 5 week post LBL. I have noticed some hair loss, but it is hard to tell whether it's from the plastics, or whether it just seems like a lot because right now, while I shower every day (thank goodness I was cleared to take showers early out) I am not washing my hair every day (which I used to do pre-plastics).

Ugh I'm anticipating 10-21 days of no showers. Sniff!
Continued great healing to you! XOLori
