Has anyone experienced hair loss after an ostomy?

@bettes I am so happy to hear that the hair will come back! You are not the first one to say their hair came back curly. I wonder why that happened? At this point, I just want my hair back!! I am embarrassed to go out in public like this. I had thick, fine hair before my 10-hr. surgery in November. It really upsets me to see my pink scalp in the mirror - may have to buy a wig for now. I am 72.

@adlib071 I say, if you want to, then bite the bullet and get a wig. Life is just too short.
