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 :)

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!

Hey JLo! Oh man...hope the pain subsides soon! I just looked up the prognosis for this and it seems good, just have to wait for the inflammation to calm down. Take care and recover well! Let us/me know if there's anything you need xoxoxox
Hi all, I had full intentions of coming today but I have been hit with severe pain in my arm and shoulder due to " severe calcification of the bursa and tendons". Anyway, it hurts like crazy and I can't drive my bug cause it's a stick shift....I am really thankful alopecia doesn't hurt and I am have the utmost respect for those with RA...I am just blow away as to how this has knocked me out. Anyway it's going to take a long time to heal, months, so I'm at the adjustment stage and will soon get a handle on it all and will be able to function a bit better and get out and about. Take care all, I'll see you the next time for sure, JLo
Sorry to hear that Karina, as well as for others who cannot attend tomorrow.
Next time! : )
Hey Karina! Thanks for sharing your experience! Are you coming to the meetup tomorrow? I think a lot of us will want to learn more about your Dr. Shiwani visit! :)
Honest views most welcome Karina! I could not afford expensive testing myself right now . . .
Thanks for the words on the article. : )
Will we see you tomorrow?
A bit more of my view, and support for the alopecia community . . .
