Hi Guys!
So I was diagnosed with Folliculitis about two months ago. I have a large bald spot my crown and extreme thinning. The biopsies showed scar tissue but my Folliculitis was not very bad so we are guessing I also have scarring Alopecia. I had to clear up the bacteria first and I finally go in to the doctor today to see what she says about the Alopecia. It looks like I have some sporadic baby regrowth which is exciting! I don't want to get too excited tho.
What will she do to diagnose the scarring Alopecia? I have to wear my hair up to cover my bald spots and I wear thick turban head bands to cover the skin on the sides of my head - the thin hair doesn't cover much anymore. But I'm not ready to commit to shaving my head! I MISS having hair and curling it or feeling pretty and feminine. I really wanted to let you guys know my story because I am eager to become a part of the community.
Thanks,
Veronica
