Today is day one, May 29th 2013. I am to apply it every night to my head for 2 weeks and then every other night following. I sure hope this works, I would love to have something work!

Posted on January 16, 2011 at 8:33pm 1 Comment

Thank you so much! I am actually more comfortable in public with my shaved head than with a wig. I just feel like everyone should be free to be who they are, and not feel like they should hide their real self. The blonde is just because it hides my bald spots better...and I just like being a blonde :)
