About Me:
I have had Alopecia since I was two, but varying stages. I had most of my hair until I was 32 and pregnant with my third child...( I had 101) ways to cover a bald spot, probably not much different than alot of you! At this time I went Totalis losing all my scalp hair...it did come back in after 2 years. I was so greatfull...but alopecia just kind of lurks in the background, plus having it so young I was bound to lose it again! About a year and a half ago when I became the hippest grandma ever...I went AU and have been that way since. I tried Immuno suppresents which made me achey and my legs swell...so the only thing left would be prednisone...hell no! I wont go...I know their are harder things in life than being bald. Last time I lost my hair...I had to wear my wig out, I wasn't comfortable with myself without it (and they have come a long way). This time I very seldom wear a wig...If I want to, or have to dress up I wear one...otherwise I just wear a dambanna. You can find fun ones online.
Do you have alopecia?
Alopecia universalis
Are you age 18 or older?

Hi Glenda! How are you doing? It's been a couple of weeks now and I've been thinking about all of the great people that I meet over the conference weekend and I wanted to write to you and see how you were doing. I loved seeing pictures of your family on your page :) I think I am going to try to add some more pictures on my page soon. It's fun to share the good memories with others :)

Hey Glenda. I am sooo nervous I cant hardly stand it right now. I sure hope this wig looks ok. It better for 2300!!!! I am heading up on Tuesday of this next week. I am freaking out about such an inexpensive investment...ughhh!! I am also thinking of calling Karen with freedom wigs while I am there to see if we can meet and discuss the freedom wigs. Have you seen those? I think most of them look great...even though I have seen a few that look kinda wiggy. Thanks for the good luck wishes, Really going to need it!

Hey girl....I read your posts on Chelsea's page and I wanted to share something with you. I am heading to Chicago to get my first lace front european hair from a place of Brian Blanchard....http://wigsforcancerprivacy.com is his website. I dont know what you budget is like but it is going to cost me $2300. His cap are all hand made and hand knotted with lace in front so you can wear it without bangs. There is a lady on here by the name of Andrea Kacmarski (Sp?) that wears one of his wigs.......it is amazingly beautiful.....no way would I ever been able to tell. She also has a facebook account with lots more photos on there. Brian the owner....told me we could do everything by mail but to be honest spending that much...I want to lay my hands on it first. If you have any questions....shoot me an email and please wish me luck!!! Scared to death!!!!!!!!!

Hey girl.....a couple of more questions for you. Do you wear eyelashes and what did you do about your eyebrows? I havent lost those yet but I bet it wont be long! I know I have told you this before but I a lady can't hear it often enough! You are just beautiful bald....if I was as pretty as you bald I probably wouldnt care so much. I have a long face and a flat head in the back....so I am sure I am NOT going to look ok bald...UGHHHH!! This condition STINKS!!!!!!!!!!!

i actually ordered it at the hair salon. they have all the books and styles and colors all there.. its in monroeville, PA. they are an amazing older coulple! they run the salon themselves and do "normal hair too" haha. they measure everything and call and order the wig for you. i got my first one in april. i wear it everyday, until i go to sleep so it lasted a good 8 months through a rough summer of working at an amusement park lol! it doesnt slip at all! i use double sided tape and tape the top like on my forehead.. its perfect! you can curl, straighten, and scrunch. i was told NOT to color it though. i can give you the number if you want to call them and talk to them? you can tell them i told you to call... im like their adopted daughter haha :) im so glad i found this website with others that are going through it too cause ppl who arent, just DONT understand! thank you for saying im stunning! i lost all self confidence going through this but having the full lact wig was my saving grace! i am getting my cofidence back! hope all is going good :) talk to you soon....
