    Started losing hair at 3.5 months post op...
    Hair loss has definitely slowed down, but hadn't stopped altogether. A sleeved friend of mine suggested French braiding my hair, instead of leaving it down or in a ponytail or bun, and somehow that has helped? I think it probably had to do with less interference and tugging all the time? Anyway, French braids and less frequent brushing have helped a lot.

    It's different for EVERYONE! Some lose a lot for a long time, or for a short time, and some lose small amounts for a long time, or for a short time. Point being: there's really no way to tell until (and unless) it happens to you. Sorry to be so vague. The good news is this: it grows back. I haven't read one single post where a veteran said it never grew back.
    I'm at 5 months post surgery, and I haven't lost any yet. I figure if I can get to the 6 months mark I'm in the clear (what I've read it starts between 2 and 6 months). I suppose it could start shedding tomorrow, and if it does I won't be surprised. I also will still be grateful for the 76 lbs I've lost so far, and for the reasonable chance that I can lose 69 more and get to goal. If I lose hair, I will know it's not forever & it does grow back.
    Try not to worry yourself too much over this! Get your Protein, your Water, and a balance of healthy fat in your diet. Take your Vitamins, and Biotin supplements. Be kind to your hair and massage your scalp well when you Shampoo. But please don't make yourself miserable worrying.

    Keep your Protein levels up that's the key! I am a little over 4 months post op and not really losing much. I am also using Revita Shampoo and conditioner. It is a follicle stimulator so it won't prevent hair from falling out but it will stimulate the follicles to produce hair. I figure for the hair that I am losing I am replacing in the already thin areas before the surgery. The last time I was with my hair stylist he checked my scalp and I do have a bunch of little hairs growing in. You can order it on Amazon.com it is a little pricey but it does work.
