Right after I lost my hair this week in 2008 at age 56, I was in contact with two women who were putting together a documentary or a blog about alopecia - I don't remember what - named Margaret and Laura, out of NYC. They interviewed me via Skype but I never found out what, if anything happened with that production. Recently I did find a Facebook page for them: …
ContinueI signed up to participate in an alopecia study I thought why not what could it hurt ? I’ve already lost all my hair so there’s nothing to worry about there . But then I think what if my hair grows back? Then I think if it doesn’t help me maybe it will help someone else someone young.Alopecia is devastating for me as an adult I can’t imagine having it as a child or a teenager.But now I’m kind of having second thoughts. I’m kind of worried about the medication I’d be putting into my body…

Adulting can be described as learning to navigate grown-up things and have responsibilities, such as finding full-time employment, paying bills, dating, and relationships, and more. Adulting can be filled with many ups and downs, let alone navigating it with alopecia.

Hello all,
I have come across a site hairstemstore.com that sells topical stem cells which seem to be gaining a lot of attention the last few years.
Has any one heard of this?

An old quote goes “the worst loneliness is to not be comfortable with yourself.” When it comes to coping with insecurities after hair loss, you’ve got to embrace positivity. Remember that you yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe deserves your love and affection.
As every cloud has a silver lining, always take things positively. Don’t…

We have another appointment with pediatrician dermatologist in January, till then I would love to connect with parents who have same problem and I hope to find out more stories.
All the best to everyone!

It’s possible to conceal early signs of balding by using a concealer or bald spot spray. This is a temporary fix and might come in handy if you’ve just started shedding. They don’t get to the root of the problem. A good bald spot spray typically contains nanofibers and dyes.
So, when you apply it on the affected spots, it entwines with your existing hair provide coverage to areas where it’s needed most. These nanofibers are made from keratin which is the exact same natural material…

I don’t have Alopecia, anxiety or depression. I haven’t had suicidal thoughts roam the sacred space of my mind, nor have I been bullied for my appearance. I am not familiar with the feeling of a panic attack or crippling social anxiety and, I have never felt so deeply overcome with mental pain that I couldn’t breathe. But - I was there for Leon through all of the above and this absolutely devastated me.
When you love someone, everything becomes a simultaneous…

We hope our story raises awareness about the devastating psychological and physical effects of alopecia, brings some comfort to others dealing with mental health issues and is a reminder to never question, assume, judge or comment on someone’s appearance.
“Sorry, I didn’t recognise you mate” – the unintentional and heartbreaking words that Leon has heard daily for quite some time now. Also a strong motivator that it was time to go public with this.
So, what did happen to Leon?…

People with depression often feel like they can’t express themselves without judgement. There is a stigma that mental illness isn’t as worthy as a physical illness. People are less forgiving and sympathetic when it comes to mental pain. To me they are two of the same, except physical illness isn’t loaded with shame. It’s easier to comfort someone when they say “my stomach hurts” rather than “my heart is broken” and the reality is most of us would prefer to call in sick with a “migraine”…

Hi All,
I’m looking to get some advice regarding treatment. I was diagnosed with alopecia 5 months postpartum, I had a big patch on the sides of my scalp. Doctor said it could turn into alopecia totalis, so I was on Kenalog injection 5 months and all my hair grew back. Within a month of the last dose alopecia areata recurred and this time I lost 75% of my hair in a month . Due to covid-19 doctors recommended me to take oral dexamethisone for a month and unluckily there was no…
