Ok, give it a good cry! Then take yourself down to the salon and get a new cut that will help. A wig is always an option too. At least you know it should come back.

I am 4 months out also, and down 70 pounds.... the hair loss is real. I hate washing my hair. I have thought about cutting it short, but haven't done it yet. I go back and forth about it. I totally understand how you are feeling...

I don't wanna cut mine I am not into short hair so I am hoping that it will grow back soon

Me too. Feel your pain. As of yesterday 4 months since surgery. Hair coming out in handfuls. Getting married in a week Saturday hoping it holds that long. After I don't even care. I don't like short hair on me but may chop it off. I can't stand hair floating around.

I've had that too since my surgery in September. I bought some Nioxin shampoo, conditioner, and scalp treatment. It has slowed down the loss. I also take Biotin and only wash every 3 days to control the loss. I'm really thin in the back of my head but I still have some that I can do a comb over

Yeah hairless ends about a year in - just be sure to get enough vitamins and minerals to not prolong it I am 1 year out 18 months and for me I am not loosing hair but by hair brimmed due to an ilia low iron I can my hair to medium bobs with bangs and still trying to baby my hair and to not be brittle

Here's to hoping for the best for all of us and hoping it grows back sooner rather than later

My hair loss started at about 3-4 months post op. I am almost at 8 months post op and it finally started slowing down. didn't mtter what I did.. I bought the expensive shampoos. I took my vitamins and biotin... I cut it..i avoided washing it for a couple days. its very frustrating but it is part of my journey. I see lil baby hairs growing back so its a good sign lol

just try to keep positive..its temporary and soon you'll have ur beautiful hair back

I worry about this, too. I am 11 days post-op, so not having this issue right now, but I am getting married when I will be 5 months post-op. I'm guessing that will be right in the middle of the hair loss phase. :/
