Your body has had a shock. It will take time to fix it. Hair is dead so putting things on it doesn't work. It can make it look fuller.

Anytime we lose a lot of weight, is go through massive changes and stress, we lose hair. Its kind of a normal thing for WLS. There ate many topics on this. Search above in forums and see what others have been through, and what they've done about it. From everything I've read, it will grow back! You notice because its your head, but I bet others will notice your weight loss, not the hair loss :-)

I recently experienced hair loss from a thyroid condition. My hair got very thin....and my hairdresser suggested I try Biotin. I have taken it over 2 months now. After two weeks I noticed my hair was coming back. This stuff works. You can get it at GNC. I will continue to take it after my surgery too.

Hope this helps. I had also read that primrose oil was good for hair loss too but I cannot say for sure.
