I am a 15 year old girl from Sweden. I have had alopecia areata since February 2008. I have still not accepted that I have alopecia. It began as a small spot and now it covers about 40%-45% of my head. I have covered it with extensions and painted the spots with eyebrow pencils.
Hey hun,
I am new to alopecia world as well. I read you were looking for someone your age to talk to you. I am 2 years older then you 17 but i think thats pretty close aha.
Talk to you soon
Lacey.
Hi Anna, I wanted to welcome you to Alopecia World. I can honestly say that we are a great community here and I hope you enjoy the time you spend with us and we look forward to your input. Cheryl, co-founder
aha wonderful!
When did you get alopecia? I just got it this summer, its very scary eh. I have an appointment to see a specialist but its not un till October. I'm hoping they can slow down the process! I only have like 3 spots right now. But i hate covering them. Do you wear a wig now?!

ja hade precis samma problem, fick alopeci när ja va 15 och flyttade när ja skulle börja gymnasiet. Dom vännerna jag fick när ja hade flyttat som ja berättade för vart naturligtvis chockade, dom visste ju inte ens om att de fanns en sån sjukdom, men när ja hade förklarat allt hur det låg till så va de helt okej för dom.
Fast i början va de ju väldigt jobbigt att prata om de eftersom jag inte hade accepterat att ja hade alopeci. De är egentligen nu det senaste halvåret som jag verkligen gjort de och kan prata om min sjukdom öppet med vem som helst typ.
Men ja lovar dej att det är ingen som kommer va elak eller nåt mot dej för att du har tappat hår, dom allra flesta är väldigt medlidande. :)
Anna,
well that's to bad wow so your hair went pretty fast eh. Well i only has 3 spots and there all the size of a quarter except one of them is maybe the size of a dollar. 2 are in the front of my hair where my bangs are so i usually just blow dry my bangs so they have lots of volume, but they are the most annoying because when ever the wind blows there they are :(. I was thinking of getting extensions to cover them. How do you position them like do you put them right over the bald spot?
.Hugs.
