Hi Lu

I've been having the same problem.

I have started taking BIOTIN from health food store.

Upped my protein and taking my vitamins.

I took biotin and vitamins and knew I had to give it time. The hair is getting stronger and better, but you must be patient - it will take a couple months for you to see the improvement. Don't give up.

I have anorexia, not currently in an episide obviously thats why I am getting the band but when I was losing rapid weight with the eating disorder my hair also fell out in sad sad big handdfulls and it was scary as all hell, i totally relate. The trichologyst (Hair specialist) that i saw gave me zinc and "BIOTIN" for it.

I stopped taking the zinc as it made me sick but within 2 months the hair loss stopped and the weight kept coming off, i attribute this to the biotin and swear by it.

I also started using organic shampoos and conditioners.

I had training with PHYTO, I personally love and use their products. I haven’t used this one, however based on the tests its suppose to work great (and reviews, both good and bad are in there). I've ordered it and will let you know how it works, it is pricy. $50 per bottle 120 pills and you take two a day, so it averages out to be $25 per month. If you’re interested in this line you can find it at local salons (call to see who carries this line) and its all natural and has really made a big difference in my hair. (You can actually see the difference in my hair in my before and after pictures – since I needed new products to combat the hair loss I stared using this line – big difference)

I receive many free products, but since I use this one I have to buy it – but its worth it. One thing about hair, its like exercising – you need to switch things up every once in a while – it gets use to the same program. (That’s why PHYTO carries so many different types – you’re taught to switch your products).

I am losing hair too but am not sure why. I am eating quite a bit - more than I should. Getting a lot of protien - eating meats and cheeses.

Does stress make you lose hair?

Oh yes for sure. I lost hair and weight when my mother passed. If only I could have kept the weight loss and gotten my hair back!!!

Hi all,

I too have been having problems with hair loss. Don't like it a bit! I read stuff online and people (possibly me) that are iron deficient is a reason for hair loss. Anyone heard of this? I've started taking iron pills two days ago and it will take a few weeks/months for the results. Please continue to post your findings as I will try your remedy if this iron deficiency is not the reason for my hair loss. Oh and yes I've read many times that stress will do it to you.

When do you start taking the Biotin? Do you start taking it right after you get the band? I want to prevent any hair loss. I have great hair, dont want any problems.
