About Me:
My name is Jennifer and I have 3 beautiful boys. I have a 7 year old and 5 year old twins. One of my twins, Scott, was diasgnosed with alopecia areata just before his 4th birthday. He has had 2 "episodes" so far. The 1st time he lost 20% of his hair and it all grew back within 6 months. The 2nd episode was almost a year to the day later and he lost 50%. We are starting to see regrowth now. We have grown his hair long enough to cover most spots now and we use a hair crayon on his scalp to camouflage the spots that are more obvious. This second episode has been much more difficult to handle but things are looking up right now!

    Hi Jen,

    My daughter who turned 6 in Aug, has alopecia. Her first experience was in Dec 2014. She lost over 60% of her hair, but a year later she had grown all of it back. This year 2 days before her birthday I noticed a new patch. A month now and everyday she looses hair...the alopecia this time is difference as it seems to be slower but I dont know what to expect!

    PLease connect so that I have someone to talk to
