Finally made it to Texas. All the way from Idaho and feels like I have moved into a different country. People drive here as if gold is at the next light. Freakin fast. Big change from in town speed of 25 mph.

When I moved here, I made the decision to wear the "Love me or leave me outfit". As is. No returns. The one that was always in the closet. Meaning going out without a scarf or hat. Come to find out, it's been my best outfit yet.

People stare. But this time instead of looking…

Getting ready to move to Dallas Texas and out of the 2 emotions there truly are love and fear. And I am scared out of my wits about entering back into my old stomping ground where I grew up and lost my hair and is a big city. I feel all of my defenses coming up, protection mode ie: fight mode.

It means…

Plus $37 for the follicle booster. And last $10 for this oil from India promising new hair growth. I gave it all a try. Each night after…

Hello everybody ! My name is Kristine and I have had alopecia since my early twentys. I am now 35 years of age. I started shaving my head about 2 and a half years ago. Boy, was that liberating ! Out of sight, out of mind for the most part... Now I'm really into hats and scarfs. I love wearing them. My husband shaves my head for me. It is sort of messy with all of these tiny hairs I end up finding on the bathroom floor or on my toothbrush days after a good buzzing.

Then I met this really… Continue
