What happens to your body hair when you lose a significant amount of weight?

I'm trying to lose 24 more pounds (i've lost 7 already) and i was wondering:



does your skin tighten when you lose weight cause it has less fat to cover?



and does the hair on ur body get closer together and make you look hairier?



i'm just wondering. (stupid question i know)

IT depends on your age while you are young it will maintain its elatisity to a certain dergree. If you are say in your late 30's early 40's you might need to use creams with viatmin e. It also will depend on your height and whether or not it is a large amount of weight for your frame. Unless you are morbidly obese at 4' 11" you will probably be fine.

I think the skin stays a little flabby. It is easy to loose the weight but very hard to loose the flabbyiness. Depending on how much weight you loose, you may remain with extra skin. You also may start to notice stretch marks from where you're skin was stretched and no longer is.



As for the hair, I'm not sure how that works, but I don't think it's something too noticeable.
