Help? :(

Hi!

I'm a longtime lurker and first time poster here. I won't bore anyone with me whole life story, just a few tidbits about my hair loss journey and a quick question.

I was diagnosed with AA at age 9 with an almost total loss of my hair/eyebrows/lashes by 10. At 14 it all grew back-this certainly made high school easier! :D

Now, at 24, my alopecia is back and I've lost a lot of hair in the past year. BUT there are so many great options I didn't know about the first time around. No eyebrows? I have a pencil! No lashes? I can get falsies. No hair? I got my first wig and am now comfortable rockin' my Mrs. Potato Head swag. 

I mostly wear a wig for work and I'd like to know more about more realistic options-mainly silicone cap wigs? I've seen Follea and Freedom wigs-so beautiful-but I can't really spend more than $1,000 right now. Also, their hair all seems European-I'm Black and have trouble finding hair to match my natural curl pattern. 

Any advice on a less costly silicone base or vacuum wig?

Thanks!

Hi Shaina,

I just received my newest wig from Berry Lace Wigs and it's simply gorgeous.

They have a wide variety of hair types (I even found European!) with plenty of black hair options.

Try checking them out, many of their wigs are $300-$400.
