I use to be just like you thin and fine hair. My hairdresser said today--oh I just love your curl in your hair. If you have had thin and fine hair for over 60 years and all of a sudden it is curly and crazy--you have to learn how to fix it. I have been having it cut to even it up--but honestly I have a cute wig that I am wearing. I just wondered if any had curly hair after their hair fell out?

Take care,

Suzanne

I'd love curly hair! Mine is fine and thin and I have been losing more of it the past 3 weeks or so. When did yours stop falling out and did it come back thicker AND curly?

My hair started to fall out about 3 months after my surgery and lasted for a good month I lost quite a bit of hair during that month. I used a Shampoo and Cream Rinse call Nioxin. You can find it on line or check some of your local Hair Salons. After using it for a week, my hair stopped falling out. I really noticed it coming back in about 6 months after the surgery. It is thicker, but I think that it has to do with being curly.

When did your hair start falling out? I'm almost 2 weeks post-op and that hasn't happened -- and I hope it doesn't. I have really thick hair; however, I just had my hairdresser thin the heck out of it so I won't get so hot this summer.

Not everyone has their hair come out. I think about 3 months after the surgery, then it lasted for about a month until I started using Nioxin Shampoo and Cream Rise. Within a week of using it, the hair stopped coming out. I can't say for sure if that is what stopped it, but my scap is so health now and my hair feels good. I lost my hair for almost a month before I found this shampoo. At about 6 month out, that is when I started to notice my hair was curly that was coming back in. I have always had thin and straight hair.

Suzanne came to visit me in the hospital in Mexicali!

I returned your email but then I didn't hear back from you.

My hair is already starting to fall out. I am freaked out.

I am sorry, I do remember you. Try some Nixoin Shampoo and Cream Rise. That made a world of difference to me. Within a week, my hair stopped falling out. I am not sure if it was the shampoo that stopped it, or it was just tired of falling out. Now it is curly and short.

I will try to stay in touch!

Take care,

I've been using the Nioxin Shampoo line since before surgery. The scalp treatment is hard to use. It's like Water so it's hard to get it on all over. I like the shampoo and conditioner though. I am not sure if it's helping.

I truly hope mine doesn't fall out -- I haven't noticed any more hair in my brush than before the surgery.

My hair, as I get older, has gotten curlier ... the last time I got it styled, my gal said "Where is all this curl coming from?" I like a bit of curl as my hair is very straight and very thick. She has to texturize it everytime she cuts it so I don't look like I stuck my finger in a light socket.

I would take advantage of the curl -- just put a bit of moose in your hair, scrunch it with your fingers and let it air dry ... later if you want, you can pic it out a bit.

I HATE messing with my hair so for me, the easier the better. The style I have now is pretty much wash and wear which suits me to a T!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
