I'm 6 months post op, and I had some shedding at around 3 months, but my hair still looks great. Still long, and still thick. And I'm really happy I wasn't one who had the hair loss issue. That was a fear of mine as well.

My surgery was 8/17 and it started thinning a few weeks ago. I notice it in front but I've adjusted how I style my hair. I will take the thinning hair any day over being 295lbs! Plus it will grow back :)

I was sleeved the same day !! ????

I haven't lost any hair yet ... Mine is so thin as it is ... Oh well what are gonna do ...

I have really thin hair, so i really worry when i start losing hair I will have bald spots.

I'm 3 months out and noticed my hair has started to thin. I've upped my protein and started taking biotin. Keeping my fingers crossed that it's a short falling out period.

At about 4 mos my hair has started falling out/shedding. Every day there is a huge clump of hair in the drain. I have a lot of curly hair, but it's thinner, a weird texture and wispy. I've read it's more about hormones than diet. I'm hoping it stops in 2 or 3 mos. ????
