New hair

Well I have new hair!! My sis helped me on Thurs bond my new lace wig to my head. It is so odd to look in the mirror and see me with hair....lots and lots of hair! So far so good, it is different to have something on when I go to sleep or workout, I have wore regular wigs off and on over the last 15 years, but this is the first bonded one. My kids and super pumped about me going swimming with them or down a waterslide....I can't wait. I have spent way too much time on the sidelines.

Nervous, excited, scared, need a drink maybe?

So next weekend I have my consultation with the hair salon regarding options for a wig for me. It has been a long 15 years with dealing with my androgenic alopecia and I am finally taking back control, but now I am a little scared. I have my mother and my aunt(she has a hair system on due to thyroid issues causing her to lose alot of her hair) going with me. I am going to the same salon as my aunt goes to.

I am excited to move on with my life and go into this next stage or adventure if you… Continue

Grateful

In four days I will be leaving from Ontario, Canada to go to Nebaj, Guatemala on a mission trip. I may sound like some crazy religious person but I won't lie when I say it is God's will that I am going there. Ever since I felt I wanted to go, everything has fallen into place and I feel compelled - I have to do this! What made me want to post though was the fact that some of us with alopecia (especially newbies) are so absorbed with our hairloss and changing image that we tend to lose focus on… Continue

Having it all

What does this mean for you? What weight do you put on all the other aspects of your life, and which ones give you your personal sense of success, comfort, pride, and satisfaction? Some of us have trouble trying to find balance, especially after mishaps in choices. The immediate reaction to hair loss can also take one's mind off the bigger picture. In this time of economic changes, what thoughts are on your mind about what you really need in life? Please tell an unbalanced Libra (me!) how one… Continue

Memories

Well I had the day off today; kids are in school, hubby at work, so I decide to do some heavy cleaning. I came across some pictures of Alex before he started losing his hair and I realized that I didn't remember what he looked like with hair. It was only 8 months ago when he started losing it---- why cant I remember him with hair? For the last eight months, I have shown only signs of disappointment with the condition of Alopecia, but now I am angry...... Why??? Why Alex??? Not that I wish it… Continue

These days

Im pretty excited about going to an Alopecia Specialist soon. Dr. Lynn Goldburg in Boston, MA. She has such a high success rate. I just hope it all works out. I have 2 new wigs from Christmas and they are wonderful, I've found that I actually like the cheaper material wigs better than the expensive ones. They seem to look more natural and come in fun colors and styles. My confidence was broken in early December when me and my Fiance broke up, we both said a lot of hurtful things but end it… Continue
