Been taking my Bariatric Fusion vitamins since November. I was sleeved on 12/10.

My vitamins have a small amount of Biotin in them but recently decided to add more to help with new hair growth, since I figured I would possibly start to lose hair very soon. I have never had an issue with facial hair, I was born naturally blonde so if I had any, it was very light. Well, in the last two weeks I have had more crazy coarse hairs pop out on my face, upper lip, chin & eyebrows. I have stopped the additional Biotin & have had two Electrolysis visits. Ughhh, anybody else have this issue with Biotin?

Oh yes, I've posted here several times about this issue with biotin. It doesn't stop hair loss, but it promotes hair growth -- the issue is, you can't tell it where to work and where not to work! I ended up with massive quantities of facial hair plus new blooms of heavy growth basically everywhere south of my navel. Total waste of money!

Yes for me too. I took Biotin for almost a year. No growth on my head and it didn't help with the hair loss, BUT the hair everywhere else went crazy like an overgrown monkey. I finally stopped taking it. Had to start waxing my arms and I won't even talk about the hair growth down south. Oh boy.. Finally stopped taking it.

Yeah I'm done with it. [emoji4]

Nothing wrong with hair south of the border ladies. some find it preferable

Biotin use here.

My hairline on the forehead is already becoming a five-head. No want of any more thinning. I'm pouring the coals to the biotin supplements.
