Dry Hair 3 weeks Post Op

I am 32 years old and am 3 weeks post op from a supracervical laparoscopic hysterectomy. Thankfully, my recovery is going well, albeit VERY tired

I am trying my best to cope with all of the changes I am experiencing. but the one that is really driving me nuts is the dry hair! Is anyone else having this problem? Any suggestions on good, affordable products that work?

I am having the same issues. My hair is dry and not shiny either. I have tired switching conditioners and nothing. I order a sample of the Aveeno off they're website. I am willing to try anything. I use conditioner and leave-in and nothing works. Help.

I experienced that myself it took about a month and a half before I got it back semma normal. I had to us a lot of products and conditioners and shampoo for dry hair, dove works good and i leave in conditioner spray after before blow drying and then if you straighten your hair then a chi protectant for that.. its a lot of work but the dry hair was driving me crazy..lol hope this helps

My beautician just told me that the anesthesia can cause trouble with your hair. I called for a perm and she told me that she would not give me a perm until she saw my hair. I might need a treatment or two first. I went in and she did put a treatment on my hair right then, then did the perm. So, talk to your beautician, or any beautician for that fact and see what they have to say.

After my surgery I was losing hair and scared. I called my sister, who is a cosmetologist, and she reassured me that it was normal. She also warned I would have drier hair (mine is normally oily) and sure enough, it was. I am at 6 weeks and it has started to go back to normal. She said part of it is the anesthesia, but a bigger part is the change in hormonal balance that our bodies go through. Consider this: your hair is a living record of every chemical in your body for as long as it has been a part of your body. When I remember that, it makes sense that it would then reflect whatever stuff my body is going through.
