Biotin did not help my hair on my head, but did grow me a nice crop of facial hair.

Suggestions: get a style that is shorter and layered, it will look better.  Wait until about month nine and it will stop falling out and grow back in.  Protein helps and rinsing with vinegar after shampooing will keep your scalp less alkaline and give a healthier basis for new hair.

Hi,  I was told by my bariatric team to supplement selenium and zinc if hair loss was a problem.   I am only 1 week out so have not got there yet but I expect to lose hair.   I lost a lot of hair when I went on a mad VLCD in the past so this was a concern I had when I was enquiring about the bypass

 

Surgeon said in  said in his letter to my Dr:   " if patients experience excess hair loss, then consider measuring their serum zinc levels and supplement with Solazinc 125mgs od if deficient. "

 

Maybe look into that?
