I'm 21 years old. At the end of April, Beginning of May 2007 I lost my entire body of hair in three weeks. it was another Month before I knew what Alopecia was. I don't mind being bald at all. I only get an occational bad bald day. The hardest part is not being able to do my hair the way I used to.
I have an awesome supportive family ( two sisters shaved their heads when I lost my hair. ) All my friends are great and have made me feel perfectly comfortable with my new bald look. My girlfriends envy the fact that I haven't shaved in about a year and have perfectly smooth legs ( my boyfriend likes that too).
On March 12, 2008 I got engaged and will be married June 10th, 2008. I have no idea weather to wear a scarf, wig, or go bald for my wedding. I'll probably mix it up a bit.
Are you age 18 or older?
Yes

I hear you, it takes a while to get use to the cold. So to start of in the summer and let you head get use to the gradual decrease in weather may help. I find that my head does not get cold anymore. Unless it is really cold, or raining/snowing... I try to wear coats with hoods, just in case I need it. keep me up to date! Cheryl

I no longer wear wigs, so I will marry without anything on my head.
My brother-in-law is from Montreal - Richard Dumouchel, I think he is approx. 47-48 years old.
