Hi everyone in Australia it's Aussie Day time to eat and be merry and to celibrate being an Aussie.

Today my son in law turned up unexpected with a friend and because I only shaved my head 3 days ago I didn't run and hide I was proud to just stay as I was in all my bald glory. This is who I am and I have no shame about the way I look love me the way I am because I am still the same person. I thought I would never feel proud of being with out my golden main but you know what I feel ok if people see me like this now. And actually my beautiful son in law loves my hair this short I challenged…

So after much thought I finally shaved my head ahhhh feels so much better and looks a whole lot better no scagally bits its all nice and even now a little cold but I can sneak in with the humans I don't look like something out of a horror movie should have done it weeks ago. New start!!!!!!

It seems that every morning when I look in the mirror I have more hair growing even my friends can see it now and they comment on Your hair is growing at first I thought it was just what I wanted to see but others seeing it confirms it is coming back. Long road yet though. It is white like Santa clause fingers crossed it keeps coming back.

Not sure if anyone else has been through this. You only have very sparce hair but you try to hang on to the little bit you are still sporting on your head. After loosing 95% of my hair in just 11 weeks I am now growing new hair all over my head but I still am clinging to the very few long bits I have. Why is that ? you know it look awful but you just keep hanging on to it, what the hair fairy is going to come while your alseep an put it all back LOL I don't think so some how so why do I keep…

I have noticed that after I have told people I have known for years about my AA they just don't bother with me anymore it's like I have a virus they are going to catch of me. I feel so alone at times I try to be my bubbly self when I am around people as to not be a burdan are they scared of me or what. I am not sure if anyone else has had this happen but it is very hurtfull it just makes you feel so rejected from sociaty like I'm a lepper or something. And if I hear one more comment it's…

I am a little confused when you start to lose your hair does it come out in clumps or small amounts I had only 2 small circles then my hair was falling from everywhere I still have about 10 percent of my hair but now it seems to be growing back. It has been about 10 or 11 weeks from when it first started so if anyone can answer I would appreciate some feed back.

I think loosing my hair has been one of the worst things that has ever happened to me. At 54 and always having beautiful long healthy hair and now it's all gone in the matter of 10 weeks. I think it was the medication I was put on has anyone had this happen due to meds.
