About Me:
I am 38 and have AU. I have had the pleasure of it being in and out of my life since I was 17 lol. I had the complete loss treatment to begin with- Bam off the bat! Man was that exciting let me tell you. Not sure about anyone else, but that experience was just divine for me. No one really had a clue what was up- at least in my area. So did lots of tests and stuff and when came down to it- stress. That's what they told me. Have you ever tried NOT to stress? Yeah, right! Anyway- grew back after a couple years and then would just have bald patches here and there. Then at 34 went on another hiatus- my Mom said that if it was every 17 years then wouldn't have to worry about it again until I was 51. I am thinking she is wrong though since no reappearence to this date. But that is fine with me! Save alot on hair products and no shaving LOL- what can be better than that :o)
Do you have alopecia?
Alopecia universalis
Are you age 18 or older?
Yes - I am 18 or older

    I am doing pretty good, and you? If you don't mind me asking in your profile pic, is this your hair or hairpiece? It looks very natural and I like the styler. I am looking for a hairpiece right now.

    Thanks - no hurry. I'm still reluctant to purchase just yet. I have chronic telogen effluvium which is pure torture. You still have enough hair to 'look normal' but you don't 'feel normal'. It is probably 50% less dense but other than that looks fine. Thanks...
