Do a search for hair loss...there are a zillion threads. It's one of the most common post-op issues and pre-op questions. You can find tons of info on here about it.

Google weight loss surgery and Hair loss. It will explain how and why it happens. Losing hair is a pretty common physical reaction to surgery, sudden drastic weight loss, and physical stress. Some lose a little, some lose a lot - for everyone it's only temporary. It will grow back. If you are pre-op get yourself in the best health you can (so many of us aren't very healthy when we start). Take Vitamins. Biotin is good for hair health but won't prevent hair loss. Use gentle hair products and avoid chemical processing. If you do experience hair loss a hairstyle change can often help disguise it. Also, if you do lose hair don't panic or let it get you down. It's so worth it to suffer a little temporary hair loss, trust me. If someone had told me shaving my head bald would make me lose 100lbs (and if it was true) I would've done it in a hot second!!! :-)
