Hope everyone is doing well! Another question to my alopecia friends: ...well some background, blah, blah, blah...and then my question...



I have come to learn that hairspray and wigs don't really mix. I have a gorgoes human hair wig that looks great after washed for only a few days because I feel the need to load it to the max with hairspray. I don't know if I find myself doing this out of habit from when I used to style my own hair or from fear that it will lose its' shape and… Continue

Hi Everyone,



Hope you are all doing well...coping well with this most incovenient and expensive condition. I haven't been on here in a while. I am hoping to get some new tips and tricks :) I am still new to this and am grateful that everytime I blog on here I obtain a whole bunch of useful advice!

I've recently been suffering from excessive hair loss due to thyroid inefficiencies. I started out with extensions to help make my hair look thicker. They worked great until most of the hair on my crown and temples fell out :( Now I don't think I have any other options but to invest in some wigs.
