Hair Dye



Recommended Posts

Okay so this is probably a dumb question but I don't care. My hair needs to be done. And by that I mean cut & foiled. I was wanting to wait and do it after surgery. But I worry about the Hair loss. Should quick get it done before my surgery or is it better to wait and do it after?

Doesnt' matter. Most Hair loss starts 2-3 months after surgery. (I'm told...mine hasn't been bad yet)

My hair has thinned quite a bit. I'm not crazy about it, but everything I read says it will come back, so I'm hanging tough. I did color it about a month ago, for whatever that's worth.

Hey girls!

I'm 10 years out, BUT....I dyed my hair the entire way through. I'm now a bottle blonde and it hasn't made much difference. My hair texture and fullness changed after surgery -- even when it did grow back. But I think whatever makes you feel great about you during this transtion is totally worth it!!

I made a YouTube video about it :) Check it out if you feel like it :) Otherwise, good luck!

I've gone through periods of thinning hair in the past (postpartum, different meds, etc) and while it always comes back, it is a frustration. I have found, given my skin and hair pigmentation, colouring my hair actually makes it look fuller/thicker and it makes me feel better about how I look. Just my two cents...

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
