Cut my hair very short anything is helpful at this hairloss stage.

I am in the same boat Lotti and had to cut my hair due to all the hair loss too. The positive to this is that my hair feels a lot better and the shorter hairs are less noticeable when they fall out. Can you see/feel any new growth coming in yet?

how far along were you ladies when you started losing hair? I'm having sleeve on Oct 1. Just wondering when I may be seeing this...

I lost all my hair while I was in the hospital recovering from complications with the sleeve...

I have short hair now and my family says I look saucy..lol

So going to keep it short for a while I think!

I cut it short for the loss, it grew back - I kept it short.lol

The hair loss a greatly decreased since I GOT MY HAIR CUT SHORT YESTERDAY. I was exhausted mentally from crying so much from the clumps of hair falling out all the time. Around 12 weeks my hair started to fall out heavily.

Mine started right before my 3mo mark. Still coming out. I will be 4 months post op 9-15-13. My doctor predicted it should stop next month based on my surgery date, complications & when it started. I keep joking that most of my weight loss is in my hair!! Lol If I'm not laughing, I'd be crying about it.

Mine started about 3 weeks ago. Sleeved on May 24th. I'm seeing my scalp....scared. Hoping it levels off or better yet STOPS!!!! I did not know this would happen....could of been a deal breaker for surgery for me if I had known. I try to get in as much Protein as I can but I'm not hitting the mark most days bc I can't eat that much and not too fond of the drinks, but I'm trying. Bald and trim probably not a good look I'm thinking.
