Tired of Losing Hair

Is anyone else tired of losing their hair? No I didn't go bald from chemo, but I sure do lose a lot of hair. Everytime I brush my hair I need to pick the hair off my clothes and clean my brush out. I know it was all part of RAI and the thyroid replacement meds, but will it ever stop falling out so much? I work in a restaurant and even though my hair is up I'm still afrid that someone is going to come up complaining they found hair in their food.
Just needed to vent a little. Thank you to anyone who reads this.
