Hello All, I am venturing into new territory. It just dawned on me that a good experiment would be to try a medical grade CBD oil tincture on my hairline and see if it affects the redness. CBD is the nonpsychoactive part of marijuana that is being…Continue

Pam, I sent you a message about your hairpieces.  I am very curious about them...

Claire, thank you so much for offering to  complete a survey!  If you send me a friend request, I can give you my email address.  I need replies by tomorrow evening though, so if that's a bit of a push, you will still be able to take part in the real survey when it goes live.  Not sure how soon that will be.

sorry to be slow replying - I was out last evening at a live screening of the Matisse exhibition from Tate Modern.  Such a good idea, these live cinema screenings.  But I want to go to the real thing now!

Hi Kijijji,

I saw a place in St Catherine's on Kijijji. They custom make partials according to their advertisements. When I called, they were trying to sell the whole wig.

Comment by Rita - Canada on June 3, 2014 at 7:18pm

Yes I called a place who advertises heavily on the radio for wigs called Gabi's and when I described my problem and that I just need a hairpiece that would cover that area, they merely pointed out that they have lots of wigs. Perhaps the person who answered was unaware if they have such.

Comment by Jen on June 3, 2014 at 5:59pm

Hi C,

Jules and Pam are in England and I live in Canada. I am looking to find someone who can do what they described but so far everyone is trying to make me buy a wig which is not necessary at this point. I still have quite a lot of good hair.

Something led me to investigate the Women's Hair Loss Project website.  It seems to be geared more toward AA and forms of alopecia that strike younger women.  But I want to encourage everyone to watch the video on the upper left of the home page, within the blog "Grace & Beauty Defined".  It's a beautiful, emotional, and inspiring video.  http://www.womenshairlossproject.com/

Hi Jules,

I would be very happy to help if you still need bodies.

All the best

Claire

Jen - you may have read that several ladies have had hairpieces fitted that remain in place for a short period of time, throughout all activities.  Certainly Jules and Pam have had this done in the UK - not sure where you are but it's worth researching.  Good luck ! x
