About Me:
HI! I'm Montoya Artese Grant. I live in Detroit Michigan (YAY!!!).. I'm in my second year of college studying Social Work with a minor in Psychology, I'm also working on a Certificate in Child Welfare. I'll be 20 in March so I'm very excited about that and really looking forward to celebrating it. I found out I had Alopecia when i was a freshmen in High School...bad timing right?... I had never even heard of alopecia before I was diagnosed with it in February 2004... Like so many others I've suffered through the countless numbers of cortisone shots...the topical creams and everything in between...none of this "solutions" worked... In 2005 I started going to Hair Club for Men...I was a member of the Hair Club for Kids for 2 1/2 years but had to leave due to financial issues...it was becoming expensive because I was turning 19.... I just recently started wearing wigs and to be honest I'm terrible when it comes to the upkeep of them... But I love to sing, read, write, and do my school work...I'm focused on getting that BSW...lol...well if i can think of any thing else I will be updating....SMOOCHES!

    I use Clinique eyebrow POWDER, which doesn't melt. You might want to combine it with a few strokes from Clinique's newer, thin, in-metal-casing eyebrow pencil (of a matching color) to see if you can simulate hairs in your brows. Good luck!

    Hi Montoya,
    I noticed you are from Detroit. My husband and I moved to CA from MI. I've lived around 7 Mile and Lahser, and we also lived in Southfield. Planning a visit soon. Maybe we could hook up. I'll have to let you know when finalize our plans.
