If anyone has any ideas or has had the same problem, I need your help! I've been using tape on my wig for 20 years now and just in the last 6mon. have become very allergic to it now. When I take off my wig every evening, the skin is bright red, itchy, and sometimes even oozing! ): I've been ordering many different tapes online, with no luck so far. Anyone with ideas? ?

Hello...

Wondering if anyone has this auto immune disease and had it passed on through their family? I have been dealing with this all my life off and on since I was around nine years old. Then things became even worse, where I've had to wear a wig for the last 18 years. But I don't care about me, its my daughter. She's a beautiful 21 year old with gorgeous long hair and yesterday she showed me a bald circle on the nape of her neck the size of a 50cent piece. I instantly became sick to my… Continue

Hi...haven't been on here in forever. Hope everyone is doing well, I posted some pics to show you that you can have fun doing any hair style these days!! I started losing my hair when I was pregnant with my son 18 years ago, well I don't know if this lovely auto immune disorder figured I had enough fun for my lifetime or what?

I don't know if I would have the patience to find out, so basically I'm just curious if anyone else has had this and what happened.
Thank you already to any input you may have.

Hi everyone......

Haven't been on here for a while, but I just had to share with someone my good news. Both my eyebrows and lashes have decided to return to me?!?! I'm so very excited and I really can't share this with anyone else because no one else knows (sshhhhh...) or they just don't understand that such a small thing, can mean so much to someone dealing with AA for over 15 years. So I thank God for my gift, hope they will continue to grow in thick, and dream someday I can throw away… Continue

This I just can't figure out?? Why is it I have had to deal with alopecia areata now for almost 17 years, I just recently find this great website with people just like me (have never met anyone else with this condition before), and now in the last two weeks...I now have alopecia universalis? Yes, it's almost all gone now.



Because knowing there are so many people out in this world also dealing with this condition, I feel I'm handling this better then I would have. Don't get me… Continue
