@adlib071 I understand about your hair I went through that for 6 months I would not even wash it I would put it on top of my head for at least a week then wash it and my hair is really long even though I was going to have to cut it because of it being so tangled,but a beautician was able to untangle it I'm worried this is going to happen again ,I wonder if 13 months will be to long to have my reversal my first surgery was last March but not having this reversal done 13 months later I'm just really undecided just know your hair will stop falling out and will be beautiful again.

@catbaloo76 Thank you for your encouraging words! I needed that. I had a thick head of hair last summer before I got sick! I especially noticed it falling out after my surgery in Nov. i gently wash my hair once a week but it is in the sink, my hair brush, on my clothes and comes out if I run fingers through it. Maybe yours wont fall out again since you have had a year to recover. I think reversal is a much shorter procedure (but a long recovery as far as resting, no lifting etc. Maybe because the wound is at the surface instead of deep inside?
