    Hi glad to "meet" you too! I understand ther self esteem issue.When I stated losing my hair about 8 months ago it started as a bald spot and I thought I would just grow bakk then my hair started shedding really bad and next thing I knew I was completely bald.My hair was once my most prized pocession but I quickly learned how things can be taken away from you so fast.I cried everyday and thought of myself as ugly and I thought that people would hate me but I learned that its who you are and not what you dont have.Now by the grace of God and through my families prayers I am seeing my hair grow bakk day by day.So cheer up.Your friends and family love you and thats all that matters!

    Hello and welcome, Dionne!
    I know how hard alopecia can be; I have had it for about 30 years. After I became the spokesperson for the National Alopecia Areata Foundation, a lot of women were needing my help and support, so I wrote a book called, "If Your Hair Falls Out, Keep Dancing!" You can find out more on my page -- and it's available on this site under "Bookshelf." Let me know if there's anything else I can do!
