Going bald!

I actually noticed a bald patch at my hairline. No one else notices it, but I know that there used to be hair there. I saw it as soon as I got out of the shower yesterday. There are some new hairs growing there, so It won't be bald for very long. Why does it have to be going from the front? Why not the back of my head? Or my arms, legs or CHIN for that matter? If it doesn't stop coming out and start growing soon I am going to have to start wearing my hair in a combover! Will you guys still be seen in public with me when I'm bald? Maybe I'll just shave it all off and tattoo some pretend hair on my head... :-l Kathy

Hey I am right there with you. I keep telling myself that it has to stop. My fear is that it will not stop until it is all gone!!!!!! Maybe we will have a name for our group....Bour's BALD babes Can't wait to see you!! have a good weekend!! Melissa

I'm already thinning and it's still a month until my surgery. Ack! Maybe we need to remind ourselves, our pouches are starting over as new babies, and so will our head of hair. Oh my, the list of negatives is growing longer. Now it's up to 1.

Start your Biotin & protein products now, before your surgery. We all go through the losing hair stage, but these 2 things do help.

Hi Kathy I feel your pain! Before my surgery I already had "female thinning" (whatever the dermatologist called it). So when my hair stated coming out you could really tell. I does stop, I promise, it just takes time. It starts off slow, then kinda tapered, then it hit me full force. I can't remember how long it lasted, but it is now growing back thicker. I started buying protien shampoos and conditioner, they may have helped I don't know, but just a suggestion. Wishing you the best, Britt

Hello to my long lost friends! I have been doing very well, losing very slowly, like most light-weights do, but I am only 20 pounds out to MY goal weight with my six month appt. coming up next month. However, I, too, am losing TONS of hair. I, fortunately, have very thick hair and tons of it, so I thought I'd be okay.... but my ponytail is getting thinner by the day and I keep losing so much STILL! Can anyone tell me just WHEN it stops? I have been taking Biotin and Protein since before the surgery, with a vengeance. Is there anything else I should add? Oh, BTW, I am working now as a cafe Barista at Books-a-Million in West Ashley during the day, so if anyone is in the area, stop in to say "Hi!" Luckily I am not tempted at all by the bakecase, but we do have sugar-free/fat-free coffee, vanilla, and raspberry frappes that are addicting! I am sorry I have been scarce, but I don't get on the computer much now that I'm a working girl. I miss y'all!
