    Yes i know what you mean i call mine "hair"!!! Im coping i think! Everyday is different. Sometimes i feel i cant be bothered with putting makeup on and eyebrows/eyelashes. Its alot of effort everyday just to look "normal"! But sometimes i like it!
    Wow that will be great meeting others who are going through the same. I have friends who went through chemo so its similar but of course theres grew back after the chemo stoped.

    I have patches that seem to move around my head, my arms and eyebrows hair have fallen out.
    I shave the rest of my hair on my head.. there isnt that much really but looks silly i think!
    How about you?
  • Kayleigh George

    Yes I am the same Im not sad or upset about loosing ahir anywhere but my head and eyebrows.... I really hope my eyelashes dont go!
    Well that is really good that some is coming back, but now in the patches where it should. Im still waiting to see a dermatologist! Got another month to go! BUt not sure if im going to go for treatment as some sounds painful!
    How are you today? I didnt go to work again, still in alot of pain.

    hi there, how r u? hope u ok, i have been to a dermatologist and they have confirmed it is alopecia areata, its just so annoying that it took nearly 9 months to tell me, its so upsetting to see my son that way as he had a beautiful head of hair, his eyebrows and eyelashes have also fallen. Odd hairs have come at the back of his head, i'm talking about 7 to 8 strands, but they have grown back white, i am hoping that is a good sign, anyway tell me about yourself, i see that you dont live to far from where im from, at what level is your alopecia and have you any regrowth, i hope that everything goes well for you, its just nice to know that i can chat to someone who understands, take care, and hope to chat to u soon
