How many of you have lost hair?



Recommended Posts

I bought some expensive Adeva products and mine has started to slow. I'm not sure if its the products or just my natural body reaction. Either way I'm glad it seems better.

Did you buy a particular product from Aveda that's supposed to help with hairloss? I love the way Aveda products smell and would love an excuse to splurge on their stuff :)

That's exactly what I thought when I purchased it. It's called Invati. There is a Shampoo, conditioner and scalp revitalizer. I purchased all 3.

Yep. Mine started about two and a half months post op. It took me a couple of days to notice. The drain in my shower had more hair than normal. Everyone I brush my hair there is a big wad. It is starting to stress me out and I hope it stops soon. It isn't clumps. Pretty much all day long I have to pull two or three strands out that are loosely hanging. No one notices until I point it out or show them my brush. But I have a lot of hair.

I thought I wouldn't lose hair because growing up I couldn't stop it from growing! Everywhere!

I've lost about 5 inches and my hair has thinned out alot. I kept seeing hair wrapped around my ponytail holder and when I washed it there was a huge difference in the thickness and texture. It seems like it's trying to thicken a little but I terribly miss my hair.... :unsure:

Omg me too! Not just losing hair but I've noticed a big difference in the texture too. It almost feels really dry or something. I wonder why?

My hair feels very dry and dead. Not really falling out but I am not even three weeks out.

Mine was like that too, then at 2 1/2 months it started coming out and is still goin strong a month later. Still feels dry and dead, not like my hair pre surgery. It used to be healthy and soft. :(

Mine started thinning about 6 months out. It didn't clump but definitely falling out. I wasn't good about my Protein supplements or Vitamins previously. I am definitely getting them ALL in now. I heard it eventually stops and grows back. I wish it would hurry up and grow back.

I am 7 months post op and YES my hair starting falling out, not in clumps or anything, but if I ran my fingers through my hair I would have a lot in my hands. When I brushed my hair more would come out. My fair was pretty long and thick, so I had I cut it real short and now my hair is healthy again. It doesn't shed anyone and its not as thin looking. Might want to think about cutting it a little. Good luck.

I keep reading that hair loss may happen after surgery. Are we talking clumps of hair? Thinning? Need for wigs and hats?

Does it grow back?

This may seem like a trivial thing to worry about but I'd like my hair to stay on my head.

I'm at 12 weeks post surgery. My hair is falling out. Not in clumps but definately in the shower and when brushing it! My dr said it was normal 3-6 months out and it can last up to 2 months!!! He said to take Biotin. I have been taking GNC be beautiful hair skin and nails I get the chew and they are tasty.

Today I saw on tv (the doctors) a feature about hair thinning. It was recommended that we use men's products because the contain 5% of the growth product where women's products only have 2% this is because the product can grow hair where it's not wanted. Like Shampoo running down the face and causing Hair growth on the face.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
