Good afternoon. My name is Lori, and I have been losing hair for close to 5 years. It started in 2010 as a tiny patch above my ear - that my hair dresser saw. Then that got bigger, and the same thing happened on the other side (above ear). I am still to this day, able to "hide" it, as I have a bob haircut, and unless the wind blows, or my hair is wet - you cannot see it. Recently, I went to my derm, and asked if she thought it would stop. She said I had some follicular erythema along the…

So a few months ago I wrote a post saying that I was seeing results for my hair loss. I was diagnosed with AA by my dermatologist and my regular doctor a few months after I saw the little patches.This happened December 2013. Soon I lost easily 80 percent of my hair over the months that passed, and I am sure I would have lost more if I hadn't started my meds. As I mentioned before I had gone to my regular doctor and the dermatologist, both whom performed a series of test by drawing blood to rule… Continue

So, where could I possibly start?

Having never been to a naturopath before, I took the advice of a friend and sought out a very well known one in my area. In the month I waited for my appointment, anyone I mentioned it to seemed to have heard of him and his silky skills. I got more and more excited as the appointment approached, which coincided with repeated trips back to my hopeless GP as we went through the process of blood tests and him delivering results in a monotone, emotionless…

At 21 I thought my hair would've been back by now. For the last 7-8 years I've mostly ignored the problem or pretended I didn't care. Reality is, I do care. I also wonder if my condition is in the way of having a relationship. I see many girls my age either married, engaged, or at least with someone, while I'm left alone. It really takes a special kind of guy to deal with our issues inside and out.

Basically the past 5 years have been hell, medically speaking. From my hair loss, 3…

Good afternoon, Everyone!

My name is Rebecca, 23, and I am new to Alopecia World. I thought making a blog post would be a great way to get started and to meet other people who are living life with alopecia. All of my life, I have always had long and beautiful hair. Before leaving the house, the one thing that had to be perfect was my hair.

I first noticed my hair loss starting around mid August of 2014 and was officially diagnosed with AA in October of 2014. My hair loss…

I use Clobetasol Propionate Topical Solution 0.05%w/w for my itchy scalp.I am on the up which means, My bald spots have re-grown hair, but when it's on the down side , my scalp itches like crazy and the hair falls out. I also use men's Rogaine(generic form) daily.

Hello All,

It's been quite a long time since I've posting anything on Alopecia World and am happy to see that this website is still around and it's where you'll find the most beautiful bald people in the world!

I've been through quite a bit of life balance changes as lots of us have and just haven't had the time to post as much as I used to blog. I returned to this website as it still helps with this "roller coaster of a  ride" called alopecia. It' still helps me when I am in…

Do you believe in signs?

For well over a year now I've been seeing feathers in my path. Mainly at the park when I'm walking my beautiful Weimaraner dogs, but also in other places that are more random, like in the city on my path to work.

Anyway, so that's the feathers. Then, shortly after my diagnosis with AA, I was op shopping and found a stack of Barbie and Brats dolls. They were so cheap that I grabbed all the ones that didn't have missing limbs for my nieces and action man…

So my hair has started to grow back ... kind of. I guess what I have now would be AA. It is very patchy. I feel kind of ungrateful saying this but I actually wish it would just go away. Way less than 50% of my head has hair so it looks terrible. I don't tolerate my wigs anymore so I always wear a scarf to work and usually a hat outside of the office. I am so tired of covering my head!
