Hey I'm in Winnipeg and also have universalis. I've never met anyone with alopecia and my family has never known how to talk to me about it. First time reaching out. I'm 31, I wear nice wigs but obviously ppl notice. I'm a craft bartender so I get looked at alot and wouldn't mind some pointers how to deal with the emotional side. I think it would be a really nice experience meeting people that I can talk about this with.
Hi Nicole - Welcome to an "eye-opening experience" for a lot of us. I never had any idea there were so many people in the world with alopecia universalis and totalis, and the numbers in this group are growing every day Truly incredible; so nice to know we're not alone! ((Hugs)) Susan

Hello and welcome, Nicole!
Hey, I developed alopecia when I was 26, too. And I also have AU.
How are you today?
