White furry stuff growing out of my head!!!! WHAT?@!?
Okay.. So for about 5-6 months I have had this white little hairs growing out of my head.. I mean it looks quite furry and its all over.. What the heck is going on?
Does anyone else have this occuring? Does anybody know why this is happening??
And if this white furry stuff it growing.. Some are very long.. (My son thinks they are funny) Why cant my hair grow back?
Just thought I might ask and see if anyone else has these little white friends..lol

Yep, I too have a head of white fuzz. ;o) I think it's cute. Regrowth is white / no pigment at first. After several months this will darken to your color. White fuzz is a good thing!

I am not sure what they are called.. But I will look up that def.
The def I got on the net: The characteristic diagnostic finding of alopecia areata is the exclamation point hair. These can be found in areas of hair loss and are short broken off hairs that are narrower closer to the scalp and therefore mimic an exclamation point. In some cases a biopsy is necessary for diagnosis.
Those are not the ones I have, mine grow long and crazy... lol I look like a light blonde furry monster... Me silly...

Hate to tell you but Ive had the fuzzies for years. Was told once that it was a sign that the real hair was going to come in. Never has. I just have to shave it when it gets too long because it looks sortof messy. And once in a while I get one long white hair that will grow really long and straight up like a hoo from dr Suess. Why can the body grow these and not real hair is a mystery. Maybe its a sign the hair is alive but dormant? Debbie D

Yep,
I have had the clear/white fuzzies for 7-8 months now. It sees like they are getting more diffuse. I do have a few white eyebrows/lashes too
What does this mean? Dunno....

I agree with you, I wonder why the body can grow these white furry things but not thicker darker hair? Strange...
I have a couple of really long ones too.. Now, I will have the Dr. Suess image in my head...lol
You guys are so funny.....

Oh wow I really didn't realize that the white fuzz may stay just that...white fuzz. Hmm...interesting. I've heard people say the white fuzz eventually turns to darker hair and grows but now I'm hearing you guys say the white fuzz stays white and fuzzy. LOL. Well...guess we just have to wait and see! My AA is definitely spreading every single day to what looks like will eventually be totalis. But seriously my whole head is covered in white fuzz. So weird.

I lost all my hair in 1999, It hasnt grown back yet :(
I personally think it wont grow back~But, some people say it can. So, its kinda just like a waiting game..
No worries have fun in the moment is what I say.... :)

It is so great to be able to relate to what all of you are saying!!! I laughed until i cryed as i looked into the mirror at all of my little fuzzy hairs on my own head. I wasnt crying tears of pain by no means... Its truely an experiance to know that there are people out there that can relate to things that I go thru on a daily basis.;)
