The truth about wigs and cuticle lock: I need evidence for full refund

I have been ordering my extremely expensive European processessed human hair wigs from the same salon for a couple of years due to my extensive alopecia areata that has left me virtually completely bald. During this time I have had problems with shedding due, ostensibly, to the fact that I chose a very light blonde color. When I ordered my last $2500 system I was forced to sign a contract stating that I could not return the system if there were any problems relating to the "color". I was…

Diagnosis: Alopecia areata

Yesterday I got a confirmed diagnosis of Alopecia Areata and my first treatment of steroid injections in my scalp. I discovered the bald patch on the back of my head, January 31st. I ran my figers through my hair and felt bare scalp, so I went to the bathroom to check it out and I had a patch the size of a 50 cent piece. I checked my pillow, the shower and every where I could think to look and found a few hairs, but nothing out of the ordinary..I don't know how I could have lost that much…

My hairline and scalp are thinning by the day

My hairline and scalp are thinning by the day - it's like the last month turned this corner from it not being seen to - There it is! I've had a long history of eating disorders and have been pretty much healed (even though it's sort of something that always sits within you), learned to love myself and to write and to give to others. This has me blown sideways inside of my vulnerable Self. I realize that every blog I've posted, everything about love and care has been put to the test. Prove…

Any chance of hair regrowth after eyebrow tattooing?

I am contemplating getting my eyebrows tattooed. This is the second time I have lost all my scalp hair, since being diagnosed with Alopecia totalis in 2010. My eyebrows and eyelashes were never affected the first time. But, this second time around....everything has fallen out.

I have never been one two wear a lot of makeup. So, drawing on my eyebrows and putting on eyeliner every morning is a big challenge. My question is: Has anyone had any regrowth after getting their eyebrows tattooed?… Continue

Been a while

Been awhile since I blogged, mainly as I have not really had any issues with Alopecia which I guess is a good thing. I can't actually believe in fact time has gone so fast. That is was Oct that I put on the blog about testing vitamins which I am not sure made any difference at all... But I did give up on them after one batch. I think taking a pill every day is just not my thing. I do still have a packet mind, which I pop one every so often when I think to myself it won't do me any harm for a…

Relieved/frightened to be actually accepting of losing my hair

Is feeling relieved/frightened to be actually accepting of losing my hair; an odd mixture - like everything I've preached about health, wellness and loving Self decided to take a test ride with a very much thinning crown. So thankful to have found this site.
