Guest guest Posted February 3, 2004 Report Share Posted February 3, 2004 If you are going to lose hair, you will lose it. Not everyone does, but many of us do. It usually starts about 2-4 months out, and continues for 3-4 months. THen one day, you will notice that your scalp feels rough. These are brand new, baby hairs. A month or 3 later, you will notice roughness again. This will be the second crop. It will come back. Hair, SKin and NAils and biotin may help you hair be healthier, stronger when it comes back, but will not stop the loss. Nioxin, especially, will not help. Even for baldness (as opposed to traumatic loss, like we have), the new hair falls out once you stop using the Nioxin. Save your $$. And if you feel you must argue with me, do some research first. THis is a normal phenomenon, well documented. Has to do with the cyclical life of hair. <<Subject: Biotin - Please Help Could someone please tell me where to find the BIOTIN? I am 4 months post op and losing my hair. I have already lost half of the hair that I had and would like to try to salvage the remaining. I am using Nioxin Shampoo and have been for 2 months but it is not helping. Thanks Shelley D>> Hawkridge in Washington State. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
