About Me
My name is Anna-Lisa. I was diagnosed with AU October 2011. I had my daughter in March so when I started losing my hair, I didn't think anything of it. It wasn't until I found bald spots and noticed my arm and leg hair was missing that I figured I should get it checked out. I knew what Alopecia was, so I knew what the diagnosis was going to be.
I was blessed to have a period of regrowth after my diagnosis. That lasted about six months before I found a spot on the back of my head. That spot turned into more and more.
I'm still in the process of it falling out but I have lost about 80-90% and I recently shaved my head. I actually feel really comfortable with my shaved head because I'm not trying to hide my spots anymore.
Do you have alopecia? (Choose appropriately)
Alopecia universalis
Are you age 18 or older?

    My hairloss story is pretty similiar to yours. I did have a patch in the front of my head grow back 2 months after it all fell out but within weeks it all came back out. Everyone's different so hopefully yours will stay grown back. Good luck. Let me know if I can help with any other questions to this crazy autoimmune disorder.

    Welcome to the International Alopecia Day Group! It'd be great to include a pic from Washington.
