Hi my name is Heather and I had RNY on 11/18/13. I am looking to connect with other African American women who had RNY. Any takers?

Good question....mine is thinning.

I have a patch in the top i was scratching and looked at my hand there was my hair

I think I am either going to cut it off or put braids back in my hair. It's so depressing to see how thin it is. I do have a spaces of misses hair too that I try to cover up as best as possible. I know it's just hair & I don't mind cutting it short but it's the thinness that makes it look so unhealthy. I am hoping that if I cut it, my hair will grow back thicker..??

Thank u ill try anything

Try shampoo and conditioner with keratin in it. It strengthens the hair shaft. I been using it and it seems to help. I also have been wearing extensions with my hair braided underneath. It seems to help since I have been without a relaxer for 4 months.

I think im gonna stop relaxing mine for a while

i know it sounds crazy, but I didn't wash my hair during the first 6 months and I guess it helped me with the thinning of my hair because I didn't perm it or anything during those 6 months and when I did wash it, it was thick and healthy although I did have the hair loss. But I've heard of people taking the vitamin Biotin...it helps the hair and nails.

Maybe this will help. I have used this in the past.

I like this product.
