New to Type II Diabetes (& the GB forums), but not to hair loss. Have you had your thyroid checked? Hair loss is very common with thyroid disease... And apparently poor thyroid function & diabetes can go hand in hand, which I didn't know. I've had Hashimoto's (auto-immune thyroid disease) for over 15 years... Hair loss was one of my first indicators, since I have a LOT of hair. Or I did have. ;-)
Anyway, if you've never had your thyroid checked, and if Metformin is not the culprit here, I'd highly recommend you do. Better safe than sorry.
Good luck!
