"AI helps researchers design microneedle patches that restore hair in balding mice"

According to the American Chemical Society:

"researchers reporting in Nano Letters have used artificial intelligence (AI) to predict compounds that could neutralize baldness-causing reactive oxygen species in the scalp. Using the best candidate, they constructed a proof-of-concept microneedle patch and effectively regenerated hair on mice."

"When the levels of oxygen free radicals are too high, they can…

New to this site and new to alopecia

As luck would have it my mother owns a beauty supply that specializes in wigs and hairgoods in Orlando, FL. Ever since I can remember I have been around hair salons, beauty supplies and hair goods.

I have seen many cases of hair loss among men and women. So when I saw a bald spot in the back of my scalp 2 weeks ago, I knew exactly what it was. I was bewildered to the why I had alopecia areata suddenly, since I am in my 50's and have no family history of it. However as far as my immune…

Out in the world as an alopecian; the job interview and further steps

While I am a musician (Singer/Songwriter), I don't exist off the air I breathe. It would be nice. When I was signed to a label in the mid-90s I toured, made very good money. Long story short, my contract with my label was not renewed. It meant "start over". Back to a day job. I burned the candle at both ends, working to support myself, pursuing my musical endeavors, writing performing.

Like millions of other Americans I was laid off in 2008. I work as a temp whenever afforded the…

It's a new day...to be continued

This is going to be a farely short blog...for now. I have to be in class in 20 minutes, but I had an epiphany as I was getting dressed this morning. People stare at me all day long, so why not give them something to look at? I typically am a 'plain Jane.' I don't really like to stand out. Instead of being stared at looking 'average' (whatever that is), I decided today that I am going to look the best I can every day. Instead of 'hey, look at that bald girl,' maybe it will go more like 'hey look… Continue

To biospy or not

I sent this response along to one someone questioning "To biospy or not" ... I think as part of my own therapy to heal from some of the the emotional pain of my Alopecia, it would be helpful to keep some of my responses in "A personal blog" as well, it will help me look back to see the progress that I plan to make from an emotional level. I need the support now more than ever and if I chose to ignore everything I'm feeling, about my condition, (which for me, of course is impossible because the… Continue

FML MOMENT...

So, yesterday I went to Math class knowing that I had a substitute teacher. He was really nice at first and then he started on picking on people to answer questions. He then points to me and goes "what is this young man?" I sit in a section of girls. And I didn't feel like dressing up to go to class, I never do, it's math class for Christ sake! So anyways, everyone in the class goes "huh? what?" like who is he talking to, because everyone knows I'm a girl. So I go, "Me? I'm a girl." And he… Continue
