Found out I had alopecia in November 2007 and according to friends and family i have coped very well (if only they knew). Anyway I have accepted that its unlikely i will have hair all over my head again but hey i can have a different hair style/colour every day if I like.

    Hi everyone, I'm a newbie on here, please be gentle. I love to hear how other people are coping with their hair loss. I seem to be ok most of the time and love the choice in wigs but when its really warm weather (rare here in the UK) I long to have the guts to whip off the wig and be bald an proud. Maybe one day :)

    Hi Val,
    I know, a wig can be really uncomfortable in hot weather! I've resisted the impulse to take my hair off in public, for about 30 years!
    I just wanted to say hello and see how you are doing.

    Ive been having steroid injections in my head (boy do they hurt) anyway last week I went for the second round and the nurse commented on the amount of re-growth I had since she last saw me. Oh joy I thought but after turning that corner I awoke this morning to find Im losing it from the other side of my head. Turned a corner and feel like I have walked smack bang into a brick wall. Oh boy this condition is sooo cruel. :o(
