When were you sleeved? This is a very normal side effect of rapid weight loss. I started losing around month 6 and it continued for about 3 months. It will grow back, have no fear.

Search the site for hair loss. It is a very popular topic.

Many will suggest shampoos or tell you to increase Protein. For me, I was meeting all my Protein numbers, taking Vitamins, exercising, taking Biotin ... doing everything suggested and I still lost hair. Some people don't lose, but I believe they are quite the minority and have the genetics most don't.

If it gets too bad, wigs are a great option! This too, shall pass.

I'm 4 months post op. It just started to get rely bad this week. And I'm a hair stylist so I CANNOT loose a lot of hair. Gotta look good at the job you know?

I'm a hairdresser as well and I have the same fears. I'm about 3 weeks out. I'm taking extra Biotin just in case.

I too am a hair stylist, and I have been loosing my hair for about 4 months. I even had to cut my hair short because I thought it would lessen the loss. I am going to try Biotin 5000mg. I'm not to sure Nioxin will help stop it. The worst part for me is I am afraid to color my hair, because I'm afraid it will just all fall out.

It might! That's when I have noticed it the most. When I colored my hair, and I even used a Demi permanent color, when I rinsed it out it was coming out in little clumps!! it seriously made me cry

I was told this is normal, Mines statred falling out in month 3 after I did a perm touch lost a big clump of hair, I started using dominican conditioner silicon mix, oil the scalp more my hair extramly dry now, my doctor told me not to put chemicals in my hair and I increased my Biotin to 10,000 mg not gel caps didn't work ,

A good friend of mine is 4 years post op...she said it's normal and it grows back:)

I'm 10 months out and mine is starting to grow back. I cut it short. It looks like it coming back pretty thick. Like others have said. I take Biotin, eat Protein. It will grow back just give it time.

Are you getting your Protein in? Lack of enough protein can cause Hair loss. I haven't had this problem, but all my reading says that protein is essential to maintain muscle and hair. I use Unjury protein, which is vey high quality and tastes the best of all the bariatric protein powders I've tried.

I'm 9 months post op and my hair continues to fall. My doctor said its from not getting enough Protein. It goes through stages where it's not a lot to a bunch of hair falling out, when its a lot of hair I know I have to up my protein and then it stops. Also I take Biotin 5,000 mcg.
