- About Me:
- I have had alopecia for about 20 years. I was in my early 20's when my hair started falling out. I started wearing a wig almost immediately. I just felt more comfortable that way.
I believe I have accepted my hair loss and after 20 years you'd think I would have, but not a day goes by that I don't think about it or wish I had hair, but I have moved on and don't dwell on it.
I am married and have 2 beautiful kids that are my life and it's because of them that I am now starting to get out there and do the things that I thought I couldn't do because I have AA.
There weren't any support groups around 20 years ago (at least none that I knew of). That's part of the reason why I joined to be able to help other people out there with their questions. - Do you have alopecia?
- Alopecia totalis
- Are you age 18 or older?
- Yes - I am 18 or older

couple of questions for you. In regards to coverage for wigs do you have anything? I have blue cross and they cover up to $1000 in a lifetime...wondering if there is anything better? Also, wondering if you have a synthetic or real hair wig. I'm hoping to get real hair but not yet sure. Hope you are having a good day.
