Hair loss? No.

Some folks hhave trouble with cramping, but incresing water intake and/or potassium intake will solve that.

There aren't any real side effects. The only things I have heard of are cramping and possible strain on ligiments but that is staved by cycling on and off for equal periods of time

creatine is bad for your kidneys, that's why they tell you to drink at least a gallon of water a day.
