Well, what can I say? I hang my head about my shameful, childish behaviour today. What a tantrum I had. Even threw my wig over the balcony into the garden 2 floors below. The reason? I have washed it 3 times in the last week trying to get it not to bunch up in the back. I don't know why it is doing this, it rarely happens. It is a remy hair wig and usually I don't have this problem. I am over it!

Since I lost (and found) my virgin Freedom hair wig I have felt so insecure about myself.…

Hi I am new to this group. I am looking to meet like minded people that can support me, I experienced hair loss, bald patches due to the use of treatments etc and launched the hair heals campaign. Really looking to get a group of people that understand me together and assist in raising awareness here in the UK.

Does anyone have a cosmetic solution for partial (50%) hair loss? I have been using Topik spray for my daughter with progressing AA and it's getting difficult to achieve a natural look. She is not quite ready for a wig. She is 9 years old and I am hoping someone here has dealt with this successfully and can give advice. Thanks

Hi Everyone

I am new to this website and wondered if anyone can help.

I have been suffering with AT for the past 4 years and have been wearing freedom pieces. I sent one of my freedom pieces in over 6 months ago to be repaired and have been informed that mine is in the next batch to be repaired. I have also been told that owing to the extensive damage it may"die during the repair process"!

I only worn the freedom piece for 12 months and yes there was a bald spot…

It amazes me how many people share their stories and triumphs about their alopecia.  I recently found another one that I think the community would benefit from.

I agree with this mother that it is important to support your children with alopecia and help them understand that they are no different than anyone else with or without hair.

I recently came across an article about Kylie Bamberger, a member of Alopecia World. Below are some excerpts I would like to share:

I've been taking organic sulfur for 2 months , a teaspoon a day and my eye lashes are growing back. Sulphur also helps phase 2 liver detox, so is good for getting estrogen and other steroid hormones out of the body faster, as well as toxic metabolites sitting around from phase 1 liver detox. I've never seen anyone whose phase 2 was as fast as their phase 1, have you? I think everyone can benefit…

“To be free from suffering, free yourself from attachments.”

They say being attached can lead to suffering, but we can also be attached to our suffering.

Every person living now is going through some kind of suffering……

There is death, sickness, poverty, injustice, cruelty, judgements, projections, failures, and insecurities.

Sometimes it is easy to forget that other…

Hi Friends ,
I have been gluten and dairy free for 6 mos. I also see a dermatologist every 2 weeks for a application of some type of medication to my scalp that forms a dermititis. I have. AU and my whole scalp looks like eczema.
I'm not sure if it's my new diet or treatment. But something is growing. Has anyone else had this experience?
Thank you ,

Here I am back on this site years later and I'm loving it ... 

I joined when I was around 14 years old and now I'm 18.

I was diagnosed with alopecia when I was just 4 years old. I decided to wear a wig when I was in 6th grade because I wanted to be like everyone else. Throughout the years I continued wearing them, although I didn't want to wear them any longer. It's hard you know, to just stop wearing wigs when everyone knows you as the girl with hair. But if I were to stop…
