- My name is Jennifer and I have 3 beautiful boys. I have a 7 year old and 5 year old twins. One of my twins, Scott, was diasgnosed with alopecia areata just before his 4th birthday. He has had 2 "episodes" so far. The 1st time he lost 20% of his hair and it all grew back within 6 months. The 2nd episode was almost a year to the day later and he lost 50%. We are starting to see regrowth now. We have grown his hair long enough to cover most spots now and we use a hair crayon on his scalp to camouflage the spots that are more obvious. This second episode has been much more difficult to handle but things are looking up right now!

Hi Jen,
My daughter who turned 6 in Aug, has alopecia. Her first experience was in Dec 2014. She lost over 60% of her hair, but a year later she had grown all of it back. This year 2 days before her birthday I noticed a new patch. A month now and everyday she looses hair...the alopecia this time is difference as it seems to be slower but I dont know what to expect!
PLease connect so that I have someone to talk to
I just wanted to let you know about a product that is amazing. It's called XFusion Check it out. You can get it at hair salons and it's not very expensive and is way Fab.

Well, we are flying phoenix to see a pediatric dermatologist. We are going to start something called Squaric Acid Dibutylester. We tried all of the possibilities that new mexico has to offer. This is the treatment that Cindy's daughter uses. We have never gotten results from any treatment before.
I just signed up with the National Alopecia Registry at MD Anderson. They called me back and signed up my other twin because they said they are in great need of twins. I guess with twins they find out the answers better, especially if only one is effected. We now have to send some blood samples from both girls, but if they find something promising Della will be one of the first able to try it.
My name is Debbie and I have a son Blake who is 7 and has had alopecia since he was 1yr. old. He is currently regrowing almost all of his hair(he was completely bald for quite a few years) but has some bald spots in the back. I would love to chat w/ you more especially about the hair crayon you use...I've never heard of it! Take Care~Debbie
