Can anyone tell me if u get your hair back?

Can anyone tell me if u get your hair back?

I'm curious to know about this topic as well. Have not been sleeved just yet. I have thin hair already, and am a little worried about losing more.

It is common and was almost a deal breaker for me at first! But it will grow back. It just takes time. I'm increasing my protein and supplements a few months before surgery to try to help with it, but since I have very thin hair too, I know I'll lose it.

I understand that almost everyone experiences hair loss and that it does start growing back between 6-9 months. About a month after surgery, you can start taking something called biotin to help slow down the hair loss. The best thing you can do though is be sure to get all of your protein daily.

I am 5 months post surgery and never had any hair loss.

In fact if you look at my before and after pics, my hair looks better now than pre surgery!!

OMGoodness... I was so freaked out by thinking my hair was going to fall out. And basically resided myself to that reality before I had the surgery. I am not all that vain. But I have really long hair and have had it all my life long. So, it would have been really weird to loose it. But I worried in vain. Sure, I lost some. But not a lot. Only noticeable to me. I wish I didnt worry so much. Most people only notice themselves. And it grows back.

I heard that Nioxin shampoo helps prevent or slow down the hair loss.

Yes it grows back...atleast that has been my experience. I began to loose my hair at 3 months and lost until 8 months and it is back to normal now...15 months out. I didnt use a special shampoo, I just took a supplement from gnc called b-beautiful. I noticed that panteen made my hair fall out worse...dont know why but it was bad. Over all I would say I lost more than 1/3 my hair.
