    Funny how all the medical dramas on TV (Grey's Anatomy) the surgeons are all decked out with mascara, gloss, so much hair product! You go to a real hospital and it's nothing like that!

    Nail polish is also a fire hazard and you don't want to catch fire on the operating table. We were not allowed to use conditioner or deodarant the night before or day of as a fire precaution as well.

    I go for my pre op pack and testing Monday so I am sure I will find out then. Who tells you guys all this stuff? My surgeon is the head of the bariatric program at the hospital and told me it was fine

    I am 4 months out and am losing my hair, i couldnt take the greys and the shedding, my nut told me it was ok, because the hair loss is from my body chemistry, nothing to do with my hair so i was fine. Happy coloring :-)

    Oh good.... I thought I saw a comment a while ago that you couldn't due your hair for a year. I am too young to let my greys show!

    I have fake nails. I was told mail polish is fine, but stay away from red.
