HI Karen,
SO sorry for the delayed reply, I haven't been on here in far too long!
Exciting to see another person in Wellington! I'm 24 and lost all of my hair about a year ago (AU), no sign of any regrowth for me unfortunately but it's very cool to know that other people have had some luck!

Nice to hear from you, and great about your regrowth. I'm still not confident with my baldness after 13 months, and still keep hoping it will suddenly start sprouting, but only on my head! I'm pretty useless with my wig and keep throwing on a hat, which is okay in winter, but gets a bit tedious. Going on my "honeymoon/2nd anniversary"to Phuket in Sept. and the hair thing is a bit of a downer. Never mind, I'm thinking I might get confident enough to bare all over there. I'm a teaching asst. so like to keep my head covered at school as yr 7 & 8s can be less than tactful at times! Keep in touch

Hey Karen,
Great pics. I think you look great with a shaved head. Thanks for the posts. The hairpiece has been great so far...A real confidentce booster. Hope you are still having regrowth...yeay!

Hi Karen! Yes, such an awesome site. And the support you get from the beautiful people in this site is even more amazing. I am inspired and encouraged by your stories about regrowth, and I hope that the regrowth continues for you. =)

Hi Karen,
Great to read about your regrowth :) awesome.

Hey Karen,
It's funny I was just visiting your site. Thanks for the encouraging news. I think it's AWESOME that your hair has come back. JUST AWESOME!!! I am done with treatments as well. I went to the last derm not expecting to get much and she suggested shots so I though why not??? I'm done with the false hope. I do have some pricklies in my hair that feel like regrowth but I'm still losing more than gaining. I hope to get the ending you are having that's for sure. I'm pumped for you! Post pics...it's like your online journal...and journey.

i am encouraged by your story! regardless of outcome, you sound like you have a great attitude about it. thanks for sharing your story.

thank you for taking the time to respond...i guess i am just trying to understand this horrible diorder. you know i thought i had comes to terms with this years ago but now that it has resurfaced i dont believe i ever did. i find myself crying all the time and feeling completley hopeless at times. i know that i cant live like this falling apart all the time but the strength i thought i had has become nonexistant. i am so scared of what could be and of wht is already happening i cant seem to focus on anything else. (selfish i know b/c i have to wonderful kiddos and a great hubby and a truly blessed life) i just cant seem to move past this an enjoy whats right in front of me. i am sorry to be dumping on you like this i just dont really have alot of people who know what i am going tru. but thanks for listening and i think i hae talked your head off enough for now. take care and again thanks for taking the time to and sharing your story with me.
