Does she color you root to tip out just your roots? Just curious since your ends are breaking. I'll assume just you're roots since you generally don't.double process unless you're reprocessing an under processed bleach job :)

Randi I'm assuming she just does my roots, she foils it. She thinks it's my diet. Thank you all so much for the info. Can't wait to get the products in hand to get started on my hair restoration...:)

Biotin is great- I take 2 500 mg capsules a day- one in the morning and one at lunch. They're about the size of a tic-tac. It's really been helping me- I had my hair break off and be crazy too, never any hair issues ever, it freaked me out! I do know that anesthesia wreaks havoc sometimes.

It has also really helped my nails as well!

I use coconut oil on my hair. But the one major thing I've found is if I dont get enough Protein on a regular basis, my hair falls out-BAD!

well my hair isn't falling out so I really don't think it's a Protein issue. I do have a hard time getting my Water intake in, in a days time so maybe I'm a bit dehydrated every day. the ends of my hair are brittle, dry and breaking off, it looks fried and frizzy. I just got my hair colored/cut/styled Saturday and my stylist was shocked at the condition and the only thing she could think of was my diet change and to take Biotin. I just ordered the Paul Mitchell Strength and protectant spray from Sleekhair.com its cheaper there. I'm sure I could have gone to Walmart salon and checked to see if they carried the products but sometimes they don't carry all of the products you need, their hair products are cheaper too. The girl that does my hair at my salon carries "It's a 10" products and the other 2 girls carry something else to sell. Wish I could take this pic of me on here and bottle it up as my hair is healthy here and my sides are longer, she has had to cut my sides shorter and it looks horrible trying to cut away the damaged part. Here I come Biotin!!!

thanks Sarah, I certainly didn't expect surgery to take its toll on my hair this bad, whew. Its frizzy sometimes. I do have the Its a 10 Serum but have not used it. The orange cap item you are talking about is that the deep conditioner that you rinse out?

Yes it is..when I put it in my hair I also put on a shower cap so it soaks in and the heat from the Water opens the folicals..I leave it on for ant 5-7 mins...if u have a day that u have nothing to do..wash ur hair put the deep conditon on with a cap and just hang out in ur house all day or sleep with it in..once a week I sleep with my deep condition...also do u wash ur hair e everyday?..since ur hair has been chemically procssed I would go to every other day..and get some dry shampoo..big sexy hair makes a great one so does KMS...even the sauve one is good I just don't like the smell of it

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
