I am going back to work after summer vacation (I'm a teacher) and I need to get my hair dyed and cut. I will be 3 weeks out from surgery....do you think my hair can handle it. Has anyone else done this? I'm already so worried about all my hair falling out I dont want to get it dyed and have it all come out in the sink... Oh and I will go to a salon to get it done I think that means even harder chemicals...help!

I've colored and highlighted my hair, at the salon, twice since surgery. I haven't had any problems

I don't think dye will make your hair fall out, but you will have medications/chemicals in your hair and they can affect how your hair reacts: perms may release, color can take differently, etc. I'd say call the salon and ask - many stylists have their own guidelines for when they will/won't do hair - he or she will be able to tell you best.

There was a stylist in my nutrition class and she said to take the biotin right away. As long as you are getting in all your protein it should be okay as long as you don't go from black to blond. She recommended not making extreme changes.

My stylist knows I'm having surgery and doesn't have any problem with me coming in 2 weeks after surgery for a color touchup (roots).

I dyed mine at 3 weeks, so far do good:)

I got base color at my salon on day ten post op. That was four weeks ago. I haven't noticed any difference in my hair.

I dyed mine several weeks out...so far, so good.

I'm a high school counselor and going back next week! I'm 2 weeks out and I have a hair appt this Friday! I didn't even think about...I need a touch-up. You nervous about your new eating habits at work? I've decided not to tell anyone there just yet...

I know that you didn't ask me, but I'm a middle school teacher. I told a couple of people before school ended. They were very supportive. I don't eat in the teachers' lounge, so I'm not worried. I did tell the two girls who eat lunch in my classroom.

I eat with coworkers in the office lounge. Its going to be interesting since I used to eat a frozen meal/sandwich and yogurt and fruit with diet soda...now what...1/4 c of cottage cheese or refried Beans? Lol

I'm a hairstylist! Yes you can. The hair falling out part is something that happens on the inside. Meaning, malnutrition, hormones, things like that. Hair color happens on the outside.

I'm currently 3 1/2 months out and about 3 weeks ago mine started falling out. It's pretty awful. They say at about the 3 month mark. But I take pretty good care of my hair. But it falls out from the root, so I try to be gentle with it.

I didn't tell anyone at work either and I don't plan on it. I teach Kindergarten and I have an assistant, I plan on telling her I had gallbladder surgery. I am worried about going back and having energy to make it through the day and open house when all the parents are questioning you for hours...

For the first few weeks I think I will be eating in my classroom, which is not uncommon in the beginning of the school year, I can say I just have so much stuff to do. Once I am more comfortable with eating I will try to eat in the louge again. But just like you said it will be weird, since I will be eating 4 Tbsp total! I am worried that I start my mushy food the week I go back... and getting all my Protein to avoid my hair falling out...so many worries

I think it'll be a lot easier eating in your classroom. I'd eat in my office but that would be weird to stop eating with the girls. Your energy will get better and better...but may be a little harder with kindergartners! Glad you have an assistant. I was going to go with gallbladder surgery (researched it a bit) but now I'm going with hiatal hernia repair. I did actually have that done during the vsg (didn't know I had one) and the initial diet for a few weeks is almost exactly like our prescribed diet. Liquids/soft, small portions, eating slowly, etc. Then I can say that the weight loss was motivating me to keep it up and start exercising. I think that's more believable. And then if you actually have to have gallbladder surgery, you won't have to make up another lie. Lol

Oh no, hopefully, it won't be too bad. I say bring enough food for 2-3 days & eat enough for one meal...they probably won't notice. Good luck & keep me posted!
