  16. Thank you so much for the information!! I take a hair skin and nails vitamin and biotin every day. I'm actually a hair dresser, but I don't have any clients who have had a weight loss surgery.
  17. I heard that a possible side effect is your scalp hair falling out and your body growing excess hair. Has this happened to anyone??? I'm attached to my good hair, it scares me to think of losing a lot of it.
