Hi! I thought I'd give this a try, nothing to lose! I was diagnosed with Alopecia Areata at age 5, and have been losing and growing back hair ever since. I've tried a whole slew of remedies, from steroids to weird diets, tissue salts to chelation therapy, all without noticeable success. Although it would be nice to have ordinary hair, I'm perfectly happy without it! I know I wouldn't have the compassion and confidence I have today without the lessons having Alopecia has taught me, so in some ways, I'm grateful. I thought it might be nice to meet some fellow "Alopecians", so here I am! :)
Thanks very much, havent been on this site in an age. I had a more extensive profile but decided to trim it back....only bit of trimmin Ive done in a long while!
Reading your lines I ponder whether having no hair actually is one of the many gifts to be grateful for so as to make something out of them. Is this what makes one happy, then? Nice: your profile pic
Hi Jill, thanks for accepting. Good to see other happy bald people. As much as I was scared about loosing hair so much I love our special looks. they are worth to be seen openly by many. Thanks for sharing your photos.
