I am 24 years old and have been diagnosed with AGA. I have had it for the last two years. I am looking for a bit of support and I hope to be able to connect with other people whoa re going through the same thing.
Zoe, I don't conceal it at work. I just deal with it somehow. Out and about I always seem to wear a baseball cap. Someone who would never been caught wearing a hat, not ever. Thankfully, in one respect, it is FLORIDA and always sunny. So wearing a cap it kinda commonplace to just shield the sun from your face. I feel self concious at work, and feel like my self esteem is at a low point. I feel some don't like me because of the way my hair is. Is that stupid? I don't know. I just perceive myself differently now than I ever did before. Sometimes I do wear a wig out and about. I still feel people are looking at me, knowing that it is a wig, and wondering why I am wearing it.
