Nerida replied to Cheryl, Co-founder's discussion Do you wear a wig to blend in?

"Geri, you said your getting some hair regrowth?  Is this proper hair or peach fuzz (soft stuff usually found on the face)?  With FAA the hair follicle dies and falls out so hair can't be regrown if there is no hair follicle.  Do…"

"Very interesting.  I've been avoiding methylcloroisothiazolinone and octicysalate for years as it was one of the key ingredients in sunscreen that I was most likely allergic too.  Sunscreens make me itchy (for over a week, scratch til…"

Nerida replied to Jess's discussion New Treatment Options in the group Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia
"Interesting.  Would have given that a go about 10yrs ago.  Too late now, no point trying to save a hairline that is already back so far.   Seems these drugs are aimed at 'stabilisation' I guess I'm just going to stay…"

Nerida replied to Patches's discussion Need advice - should I shave my head?
"Well at least you made a decision that is usually the toughest bit.  I was going shave my head a couple of days ago as I was wearing full wigs and didn't see the point.  I'm trying to go back to a topper now which seems to be…"

Nerida replied to Patchylatchy's discussion are my follicles dead?
"With scaring alopecia when the hair falls out it is because the hair follicle has died and the follicle comes out with the hair.   A dermatologist should be able to view the area under a microscope to see if there are any signs of…"
