I have struggled with hl for 10 years. It started when I was 21, and while there were several factors that could have caused it, it was probably genetic to begin with.
I have been low iron for years, and have just started taking iron pills. I have also started rogaine in the past two months. For so long it was just had to admit it was a real problem not just a phase caused by stress and my struggles with eating disorders and such.
Here I am, for support and to be supportive

Sorry that your day was hard. Haircuts are always an embarassing and stressfu time.
Mercifully, today my hair troubles have taken a back seat to getting ready for a criminal law exam on Tuesday. But the shed was lower today than yesterday, and that's all I can ask for. :)
Hope you have a great time at the party this evening!
