- About Me:
- I was diagnosed with Androgenic Alopecia and Telogen Effluvium after a scalp biopsy. I am by trade a Cosmetologist..so losing my hair was very hard for me. I have been wearing full wigs for the past 6 yrs. I started losing my hair my senior year in High school not knowing why. I am still searching for answers and have been told that for me it is a genetic gene that I have. I am one of 13 all adopted so I have no family history on myself. I am now launching my own wig line called "I AM" by Christina. The I AM is your source and confidence, through my struggle I am helping others re-discover their once found self esteem.

Hi Christy! Thanks for the add my alopecian sister. I love the fun styles you wear in your pictures. Will you be attending Dr. Amerson's cruise as well in September? I would love to check out your line of wigs. Let me know where I can get more information. I look forward to connecting with you. www.SandraDubose.com
I'll be in Md beginning the Friday before Thanksgiving. Depending on when you're leaving for the holiday, maybe we can meet up early during the week of Thanksgiving (Monday, Tues)? I could even do Friday if that works.
I am so frustrated with lace wigs right now. I thought I did my homework and purchased a full lace wig through a reputable hair stylist and its been 3 weeks and I'm already dealing with tangling and matting. I don't know what the problem is as she assured me that I was purchasing the highest quality hair (for $600 at that!) that would last a year or more. Since i'm new to wearing ful lace wigs, I have no idea what a realistic price point is or expectation for how long they will last. I'd appreciate any info you can share esp if you now of anything I can do to deal with the current issue i'm having. I'd like to purchase a couple more (because I love the comfort of the full lace) and have them cut in different styles so I can have some variety. Anyway, I look forward to hearing fom you and meeting you in Nov.

I love your pics. You're beautiful and sure do look fabulous in a variety of hairstyles. I came across your profile from the wigs group and I would love to talk with you re: the best place to buy human hair wigs. I just ordered a full lace wig that I really like but I can see i'm going to have some issues with tangling and matting already. UGH! I don't know of anyone in Atlanta who cuts and styles wigs either. I see that you cut and style. I wonder if I could try and make an appt with you when i;m in MD (my sister lives in Rockville) in November. Thanks! Valerie
I like the "My Bald Is Beautiful" idea of yours, however, there is that trademark issue again, as it is very close to My Black Is Beautiful, but perhaps putting heads together we can come up with a great one, many an alopecian has said bald is beautiful.
Put a suggestion into Mary, something wonderful will come of this. I agree with you there something that just hums right along with My Bald Is Beautiful.
Thanks again, I learned something new today & once again congrats on being asked to partake, what a totally cool & awesome thing to be able to put on ones resume.
Take care of you.

In answer to your question on National Bald Out site, once Thea or Bald Girls Do Lunch is awarded the Trademark of National Bald Out, basically yes, permission to use the slogan, put it on tee shirts, banners, ect. you have it right. In some cases depending on the owner of the trademark one must pay a fee to use it.
I hope hope this is of some help. I think its great you asked this because I suspect many others wanted to ask it as well.
I have always been told & feel strongly there is no silly or dumb question, the only silly or dumb questions are those that are not asked.
So keep asking, I do as you can see from my previous narrative. Thats how we learn, in learning comes knowledge & with knowledge comes understanding.
Take Care my Alopecian Sister.
First of all welcome to AW,
I love your pictures they are just too cha cha for words, I recognize some faces, I too like Cheryl am wondering what is " My Black is beautiful"? Is it a fund raiser? I love learning new things.
Take Care & Welcome
