About Me
I'm 32 and found out about alopecia when my hair recently began to fall out in patches...It has rapidly taken over and I am about 70% bald. As many have, I decided to shave my head a month ago since it had become so hard to hide. I had never experienced any hair loss prior to this, so it was a hard pill to swallow but is becoming easier to deal with. As a man, I feel it's not a big deal having a bald head although I would rather sport a "crisp fade" again, lol! (this must be harder for women suffering from alopecia but don't let that stop you!) I know it's not the end of the world and things could "always be worse", so I attempt to maintain a positive attitude, enjoying life and so should you! I hope to share my story, give support, spread the word and connect with others suffering from alopecia.
Do you have alopecia? (Choose appropriately)
Alopecia areata
Are you age 18 or older?
