Totally superficial issue - hair extensions after RNY

[tyt221b 63]

I've always wanted to have long hair, but my hair's so thick, I always get frustrated and cut it before it gets too long. I've decided that I'm going to get hair extensions when I reach my goal, which is about 35 pounds away. About 2 1/2 months ago, I started having the obligatory Hair loss that accompanies surgery. I think it's starting to taper off now, but I'm worried about getting extensions in a few months. If I'm not rapidly losing hair when I am ready to get the extensions, will it be okay? I know this is probably a silly question, but I have absolutely no experience with hair extensions.

My stylist is recommending fusion extensions. She said those are the best kind in her opinion.

This is a fun topic. I have had long hair my whole life, but it is straight and fine. When I lose hair and am thinner, I am going for a short haircut! I'm so excited! I think change is good for all of us. ❤️????????????????????

I bought Clip in hair extensions! I love them. It decreases the Hair loss that occurs from hair extensions. Also, I don't have to sleep in them.

I really like "fancy hair extensions"

The best person to consult for this would be a professional hair stylist that has years under their belt. Tell them your situation and ask them if it would be okay to get them now or to wait a little longer. I would imagine this situation has come up for someone with a lot of experience before. Good luck!
