Lost half of my hair to telogen effluvium mostly losing the rest due to androgenetic alopecia. Finally cut to the chase in early 2009, literally, and shaved my head, and since then wouldn't have it any other way. But still not brave enough to bear all, and doubt I ever will, so am wigging it for life!
Hi Sol,
I know how hard it can be. I have had alopecia 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!" It might make you feel better. Check it out on my page -- and let me know how else I can help.

Hi Sol, I wanted to take this opportunity to welcome you to Alopecia World. I have been living with Alopecia Areata since 1991 and know full well the struggle it can be. I look forward to getting to know you. Cheryl, Co-founder
Hi Sol, I don't only do it in photos here, I keep my head shaved and wear it every day with pride and confidence. I just returned from a major conference in Alabama where I met another woman who walked boldy in Baldness. We were the only two Bald women there, we turned plenty of heads, I had a wonderful time, no one asked any questions, just comments on how beautiful I was! Take your time, at some point you will find that you are ready to boldly walk in the beauty that is you, whether it is with a wig on or shaved Bald or Bald, Beauty is you!
Hi Sol, of course you'll be able to get to bear this and everything that comes your way. If God allowed you to get to this is because He will get you thru it. Have faith. I know it is hard, I lost all my hair (head, eyebrows, eyelashes and body) within months, very tough situiation, still have my down moments, but I know with God's grace and favor I will be fine, and so will you.
I think you are beautiful!!!After ten years of totalis ,I still feel blessed to see the strength given to me and others to overlook what others call our short coming.Keep smiling,and your head up!!!
Hi Sol,
Thanks for the message and compliment.
These wigs have worked out great for me. I have found them comfortable, secure and with care, long lasting. The hair is gorgeous and unprocessed.
