pps..Its the NAAF support group,which is quite large...
Jennifer..Honestly,I dont remember..I used to go,but Im in Folsom now,so its a 3 hour drive,but its still worth it..I dont remember how many times they meet..But you can call..Mike Chapman..650-952-4666..or Annette Perot at..650-333-9183..Those are 2 of the contact people for the San Francisco group..Its funny that the NAAF newsletter with that info in it,just came today,so must be fate..Anyway,let me know if you find the whats and where's..Id like to return myself for a meeting..I really liked going when I used to go..Its nice to be around like people who understand..Bob : )
Hello.. I am very close to you, I live in Folsom California. Its about 30 miles from Sacramento. We drive to San Francisco for the weekends sometimes. It takes about an houyr and 45 minutes.
Nice meeting you :)
I am new to this site.. I already love it soo much. Never knew there was any support out there. Kinda felt like I was the only one like this :)
Wow, I love your purple hair! Hee hee!
The National Alopecia Areata Foundation is close to you. You can find support groups by going online to www.naaf.org --good luck!

You are gorgeous!
My wife is bald and beautiful with alopecia universalis. I love her in her headscarves and her bald look, with long earrings.
To me an attractive lady often looks better bald than with hair, because you can see her feminine features better.
Hey, Jennifer. I've had AU for 26 years. I've always worn lashes, even though I haven't had any! It's easy - all you have to do is "run a bead", as they say in crafting (a line of glue) along your bare eyelid, then also run a thin line of glue along the edge of the lash. Wait a few seconds and then they will stick to eachother - promise! I sleep in mine, even, and rarely have to take them completely off and start again. They don't sell lower lashes, so I trim a pair of upper lashes and bend them until they're the right shape. Let me know if you try it! Good luck!!!! Lindsey
Hey Jenn,
That’s crazy that you’re at santa rosa. I was just there the other weekend for a speech and debate tourtament. It is quite comforting to know that there are people with AA so close.wow, nursing, that’s intense! What year are you? Right now im studing communication at SF State, but I’m planing to switch to Broadcast and Electronic communication. You should seriously come to the next meeting, they are so great and such a wonderful place to get information and talk to other people. Dr. Price (an Alopecia specialist doctor at UCSF) attends the meetings and is so helpful with questions….thanks for finding me, talk to u soon!
