Hi my name's Katrina and I have alopecia areata. This is the second time in my life that I've had it. I first got alopecia totalis when I was 10 years old and had it until I was 15, when all my hair grew back. When I was 26 my hair fell out again, except for a few patches. I wear a wig most of the time, but sometimes take it off. I believe having alopecia gives you just as many benefits as it does difficulties.
Hi Katrina, I wanted to welcome you to Alopecia World. I can honestly say that we are a great community here and I hope you enjoy the time you spend with us and we look forward to your input. Be sure to check out "10 tips for getting the most out of Alopecia World” which include a few tips to get you started!

Katrina, Thank you for the compliments! I have several wigs -- some are synthetic (like the one in this photo) and some are human hair. I have my human hair wigs made for me with European hair. The synthetics I get online at www.wigsalon.com.
If you get my book, please let me know how you like it!
