You can call me Taylor :) I'm 17 years old (senior YAY) and loving every minute of it! I've had alopecia areata since I was 6 years old. I tried as hard as I could to hide it from everyone because I didn't want them to think of me as "different". Well, about a year ago, I started to get another outbreak and now it's the worst it's ever been. But, this time, I never try to hide it because of what others will think. But on February 13, 2010, I stood up in front of 200 people and told them that I have alopeca. They stood, clapped, and i swear everyone hugged me. It was the greatest day of my life because for once, my alopecia didnt feel like a disease, it felt like a gift.
Hi taylor! My name is Maria and i came accross your page. I wish i was as strong as you. Im having a hard time coping. I am accually moving to beloit soon. how did you cope so well. has your eyelashes or eyebrows ever grown back...mine just fell out.
Thank you! And nice to "meet" you Taylor!
I got it from a local wig shop called Evelyn's Wigs. She specializes in people with alopecia and cancer. I'm amazed at how brave you are! I wish I could do something like that..
http://www.evelynswigs.com/
is her site. She's really nice.
Our personalities just..clashed a little bit so I didn't have the best time, but she's a pleasant lady and everything. And yeah mine is human hair! I also got a synthetic one from her.
haha that's awesome! I haven't been able to play much lately, cause it's my boyfriends copy, and he's playing it right now too lol. Sims<3 lol
Something about controlling little lives..haha
cool ! yeah , there are a lot of advantages to having Alopecia Universalis in my opinion (: there may be even more advantages then disadvantages but that could just be my optimism speaking , lol .
&thank you !! i love yours too . it looks great on you :D
Aw we don't have that store here :(
but I totally do the same thing with my sims lol. Or I'll see what makes them most mad, and make them do funny things. I think we might have some anger issues :P
Haha! Nope, I use double sided tape.
It's called "Fashion Tape" and is supposed to be used to keep dresses in place and stuff like that. It works much better for head bows :)
Anddd I used to use fake eyelashes, but mine casually grew back :S
Now I use double extend mascara so they look longer.
But when I did use fake eyelashes I paid like 15$ for them at Shoppers Drug Mart.
Haha thanks!
Of course I most certainly go to school like that!
The day I stopped caring what other people think is the day my life changed for the better.
People can say what they want, but they've learned not to anymore because they know I honestly, truly, 100% do not care what they think. All that matters is that I'm happy.
Anywho, that was my little ramble. Hahaha
