Different Hair Loss Question (I Hope)

Ok everyone has talked about hair loss. What I want to know is who HAS NOT suffered from hair loss. Is this something to be 100% expected or is there a chance some of us won't experience this?

Some people don't experience hair loss. I have experienced hair loss but it has stopped and I have a full head of hair now, even though at different lengths. :) I take biotin and silica and it helps with hair regrowth and nails. :)

I've been really lucky on the hair loss front. I've lost some, but not as much as I anticipated losing. I started taking biotin at 2 months post-op and I've been religious about my protein intake. OTOH, my nails are brittle and, despite gallons of lotion, my skin on my arms is super dry. I'm fully hydrated, so I just keep pouring on the lotion.

I am only 3 months out, but so far I haven't noticed my hair falling out more than normal. Since the beginning I have been taking Be-beautiful hair skin nail chews from GNC, and my hair seems to be healthier than ever.

Hi I'm considering in doing the surgery but I'm scared about loosing my hair as it is I have fine hair after having my kids so basically I can not afford to loose much more hair. If I take vitamins way before I get the surgery do I have a better chance of not loosing any hair? What do the dr say about hair loss?

I am in the same boat. My hair fell out after I had my daughter who is now 8 yrs old. Now my hair is very thin. I am scared to death about hair loss, as I might become bald if I lose more after the surgery. This is the only thing holding me back from having the surgery. I started taking b complex and biotin 2 weeks ago to try to counter act the hair loss from surgery. I am most likely going to be sleeved in September.
