I am 4 months post op (in 2 days) and my hair has recently started coming out in huge handfuls.. I am exceeding my protein goals every single day and take my multi vitamin and biotin everyday.. does anyone have any advice or something that has worked for you or helped with this? I am so depressed about it.. my hair has always been really long and thick and now it’s so thin and I’m terrified I’m going to lose it all. any help would be greatly appreciated.

6 month mark from surgery or 6 months after the hair loss started??? I can’t take even 1 more day of this or I’m going to look like the girl in the movie The Craft

How about Sally Beauty Supply or maybe also check and see if there's a website for Nioxin.?PS www.Nioxin.com, I went on Google and found them. And I think you can also access their products on Amazon. Hope this helps a little, not impossible I'll need them myself, I'm a redhead (born that way) and we start out with fewer hairs per square inch than blondes and maybe 50% less than brunettes. Hair is like a boomerang, it will return to you when its ready to![emoji106][emoji14]

six months fron surgery

I got a deal of nioxin on amazon for 25 bucks

I started taking biotin around 3 months prior to having surgery.. I’m looking into Nioxin but unsure of which system to use since I have color and chemically treated hair.. :-/

Best thing to do is go to the nioxin website and it helps you determine which one will work for you. I use system 1 but my mom uses system 3 it just depends on the individual person

My hairdresser steered me far away from nioxin and told me to get ultrax labs hair surge.. I will try anything tho at this point.. I just want my long thick hair back

If your hair dresser told you to do that one I’d probably go with that one. My mom ended up losing her hair and she’s a Bariatric patient as well and she gets head injections every two weeks and does nioxin and her hair is coming in nicely. My hair loss just started so we’re just to get a jump start on it

Bald headed women are reputed to be sexy, I think Grace Jones the model/actress said that but she shaves her head bald anyway , she may be biased?[emoji10]

Mine just started this week... so the stuff should be here tomorrow.. this is probably the worst part of the entire surgery aspect for me..

I would look terrible with a bald head.. some women can pull it off, but I’m not one of them

We started noticing mine quite a bit when I’m in the shower but outside the shower I don’t notice that much.

Mine is the worst in the shower.. then it falls all day over my uniform at work and it’s black and my hair is blonde so it really shows up.. embarrassing.

I’m sorry. I feel it. I get embarrassed around my boyfriend
