What do you put in your shower to collect your hair?



Recommended Posts

I thought I was immune to Hair loss after never losing any after my pregnancies and not having any loss until NOW...LOTS of har loss...which doesn't but me too much since I have a ton of hair...

BUT...I don't want to clog my drain...so...any suggestions as to what to put in my drains.

My one shower has a flat drain and the second has a recessed drain!

Thanks in advance!

My mom had the gastric bypass, she and many of the other people in her support group lost a lot of hair! Hope you find a strainer, ace hardware, even Walmart has those. She takes liquid vitamins to help. Now, a year later, she seems to be back to normal.

I have a hair catcher that I bought from Bed, Bath and Beyond. It has suction cups that go over the drain so it should work with any type of drain. I started getting these after I clogged the drain before being banded with my long hair. After banding and a major haircut, I still use them.

The only problem I have with them is that they seem to get gross kinda quickly and it's just me in that shower. I just stocked up on them and trade them out pretty regularly.

As opposed to "catching" the hair you could let it go down the drain and treat the drain. I treat our drains monthly with hot Water flushing and bleach followed by more hot water. Keeps them running clean and smooth (the bleach eats the hair). You just might have to do it more often.

Cheers,

Mary

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
