Vancouver Alopecia Areata Support Group

Hello Vancouverites! Connecting is one of the best ways to feel happier and become more informed! Come as you are, whether you are shy or outgoing. This is a genuine and fun group where all of us - new to alopecia or experienced, hair-wearer or au natural, seeking treatment or not - all come together and be supportive, informative, and positive for one another. After 4+ years of running this group, I can say for sure that you'll feel better after a meetup! :)

Come to our monthly meetups, or, start by joining this group and be in the loop of upcoming meetups! Sometimes I include alopecia news / remedy / stories too.

If your kid / teen has alopecia, please contact us and we'll put you in touch with other parents! It'll be, I believe, quite awesome for your child :)

Upcoming Meetups

This group gets together monthly at one of the members' homes - a cozy, positive, and fun environment, for those with alopecia. We are here to support one another, and every meetup has been amazingly mood-lifting.

Join us here and we'll send next meeting details to you in a group email!

You can always get a hold of us via AW messaging or at alopecia.vancouver[at]gmail.com

We are affiliated with CANAAF (Canadian Alopecia Areata Foundation).

Next meet up: We meet about once a month. Please email Tanya at the emil address above!

That's a great comeback. I can picture you saying that right now. Nice work. Maybe that will keep them quiet for awhile.

Hi Everyone,
I wanted to share this movie with you - you have until Oct 31st to watch it for free - it is along the lines of food inc. I am sure it will make you think twice about your purchasing options next time you do your grocery shopping:

So, I know I have told some of you ladies about a particular co-worker who's always making comments about my hair. Well, today was one of those days.

In the lunch room, she said,"your hair always looks perfect", and usually I try to ignore or change the subject but today I felt like saying something back.. I said, "Don't you know that I'm Chilean and that I'm perfect", then I said you should see the backside", She started to look at the back of my head, Then I said "not that backside the other one".. referring to my amazing buttocks. She got embarrassed and everyone started laughing..
