3 months post op and hair beginning to fall out

I heard this happens around 3 months but I always made sure I got enough protien and more protien but as soon as 3month**** OMG my hair is just falling out in handfuls..does anyone know if there is a vitamin or supplement to help? Dawn

Hi Dawn! The hairloss is inevitable. But the good thing is that it DOES stop. I thought getting your protein in and all that would help but my dear friend has proven that...well...it just doesn't matter. It's gonna happen. I recommend this stuff by ION called Keratin Rebuilder. You can get it at Sally Beauty Supply. It is a treatment you put on your hair for 10 minutes every few days. It's FABULOUS. Also, Pantene has recently come out with shampoo with some Amino Proteins in it. It's called Full And Thick. It is really wonderful. As for something you can take orally, I really don't know. Just make sure you're getting your vitamins and protein in so it doesn't get any worse than what it is. HUGS Melissa PS: It WILL stop. It WILL!!!!

Oh, Dawn...As far as I know there is nothing that helps, BUT just know that it does end... Good luck! Sorry I wasn't more help! Tracy

Dawn, There are vitamins specifically for Nail and Hair (usually if you go into GNC or a vitamin store and tell them you need a Hair and Nail Forumula, they can direct you).. but it won't stop the fallout. It will help make your hair (and nails) stronger and healthier in the long run. I just finally stopped seeing so much hair falling out this month (and mine started at around the 4 month mark). It's going to stop eventually.. til then, try not to wear it in pony-tails or pull it back too much... and the products that melissa told you about are good ones, too. I know it's little consolation but you'll be fine.. you just have to get through it. When your hair starts re-growing it'll be healthy and gorgeous! Stef
