About Me:
It's been a while since I updated this thing - time for a new profile!

My name is Christine and I'm 24 years old. I'm currently an accountant studying to be a chartered accountant. I pretty much work 40 hours a week then come home and study for another 15. It's pretty sweet.

I developed alopecia in 2008 and shaved my head in 2009. It was the best thing I could have done. I've been wearing wigs since 2009 and I love them. I buy mine online for cheap ($70) and change them up whenever I feel like I need a new hairstyle. I have over 15 different wigs in many different colors.

I'm currently NOT undergoing any treatment, but will be trying out acupuncture in the new year as I have never tried this before. I am a HUGE advocate of not treating the symptoms of alopecia but rather trying to find the internal cause of it. I have accepted my alopecia and love myself without my hair and I have found this to be the best treatment. My eyelashes and eyebrows fell out last year but they have grown back! I have never appreciated my eyelashes so much!!

I don't come on here often as I have dealt with my alopecia and don't really think about it anymore. I just get on with my life.
Do you have alopecia?
Alopecia totalis
Are you age 18 or older?
Yes - I am 18 or older

    Hey Christine,

    This wig is Jon Renau's heat defiant called "Spicy". I really like it but am waiting to get my Freedom in June. This is my first long wig and with it comes the tangling and matting up underneath in the back. Otherwise, I love having long hair again!!
