    Eyeshadow ladies! I had this problem when I had the band surgery (it's out thank goodnesss) but you will lose hair inevitable... take your vitamins biotin wash your hair less times a week but use eyes

    Yeah you will have a little bit of hair loss due to your bodies reaction to the surgery but if you keep up your protein you can minimise any further loss. Or so I'm told.. I'm scared too! Thank goodne

I am terrified About this .

i have very thin hair to begin with and I've seen people losing handfuls of hair . I'd be bald in no time ?

I am 6 weeks post op and my hair has just been falling out like the normal amount but people say there is no way to avoid this

I have always naturally had thick hair but I have recently noticed my hair has become extremely thin. I used to break hair ties, now I use the little plastic black hair ties and can loop them three times and they don't break. I have a lot of hair falling out right now but I noticed that it is even and I also have hair coming back in because I have a lot of the little troll doll hairs ?. I have noticed it is different for everyone, some people don't experience loss. Be sure to take a lot of biotin. I take extra strength.

Eyeshadow ladies! I had this problem when I had the band surgery (it's out thank goodnesss) but you will lose hair inevitable... take your vitamins biotin wash your hair less times a week but use eyeshadow that matches your hair color and blend it on on your scalp this way when you're out in the sun it's not as noticeable.. it's only temporary.. hair loss sucks but will regrow
