Get help for Bulimia: Your hair will be damaged or lost as long as you continue with your bulimia. This is an eating disorder that needs help from psychiatrists and psychotherapists who specialize in working with people who suffer in this way. Please see your doctor to check on your overall health, and get referrals for treatment. Untreated bulimia can kill you, but it's also possible to recover.
