- About Me:
- Hi! My name is Amy. I live in Golden CO and I am 40 years old. I have a very supportive husband and a very cute maltipoo puppy. I found my 1st round bald spot in early 2010. I went to the dermatologist and was diagnosed with AA. She gave me some medication to put on it and the hair grew back. By Dec. 2010 I started to lose the hair around my face and my hair was falling out in clumps. I bought my 1st wig in April 2011. About 2 months later I shaved my remaining hair. I have other autoimmune diseases (lupus and ulcerative colitis) and this is by far the most difficult to deal with. Losing my hair has been so difficult. Some days are more difficult than others. I am so thankful I found this website. It has been so helpful.

It's funny people have often told me they prefer to see me with my blad head than with a wig and when I look at your two pictures I get it. Don't get me wrong, you look beautiful with hair but you're truly glowing without! jen
Hi Amy. No complaints today. I just got a wig in the mail the other day. It's actually cute. It's a fringy bi-level bob wig. I might run over it with my car tomorrow but I'm digging it today. lol. I have such a love hate about it. You look gorgeous bald !
Hi! Thanks for the kind words and the add! You look fab either way, hair or not :)
hey Amy. im really overwhelmed by this site. its amazing.
Hi Amy! Yes I had ulcerative colitis for 4 horrible years during 1984 - 1988 until I had surgery to remove my colon. What a gorgeous face you have! Are you still suffering with it? Feel free to email me directly at: thevictorbook@sbcglobal.net. I'm also an author and have a blog if you want to see: www.psalm451.net
So did you get the freedom wig yet? I am thinking about it, wondered what you thought.
LET ME KNOW HOW THE FREEDOM WIG GOES MAYBE I WILL INVEST MYSELF. I GET REALLY DOWN SOMETIMES TOO SO HANG IN THERE. I DO MY BEST TO BE POSITIVE BUT I MISS EYEBROWS AND LASHES SOOOOOOOO MUCH AND MY HAIR. IT WOULD BE ONE THING IF I KNEW FOR SURE THAT IT WILL GROW BACK BUT THE UNKNOWN AND THE TIME THAT LAPSES BY MAKES ME SO UNEASY. I TRY TO DO POSITIVE AFFIRMATIONS EVERY DAY AND LOVE AND APPRECIATE MY BODY, BUT SOMETIMES IT CAN BE HARD AS YOU KNOW. HAVE A GOOD WEEKEND AND I WILL TTYL.
Hey Happy Thanksgiving! Freedom Wigs are super expensive right? I hope you are right and my hair grows back I keep intending for that and say affirmations everyday to affirm this but when I look in the mirror there is still nothing..=/ I don't know it is very frustrating at times, I am grateful to not be as sick as before but this part is at times more upsetting than the rest.
