It's hard to believe that it's almost been a year since I shaved my head. This time last year I couldn't even look at myself in the mirror, I was having anxiety attacks every time I took a shower or worked out because my hair was coming out in handfuls. I was fortunate enough to have a couple of friends that I told what was happening and they were a great support system they both offered to shave my head. When I did shave my head I felt better in that I felt like I was taking some control over… Continue

I have the very best friend that anyone could ask for. My best friend ,Jennifer, has been there for me during my whole hair loss she was even one of the friends that offered to shave my head when I was ready. We have a friend ,Robert, that is in theater make-up and makes wigs and she asked him to make me a wig for my birthday/xmas. She talked to him first about being able to make one for me and when he said he could she had to say something to me about it because he needed to know the colour,… Continue

Its been a while since I posted anything and a lot has happened. Since I shaved my head Ive been on yet another emotional roller coaster. I have had all kinds of thoughts going through my head.

My friends that Ive told have been very cool a few are very protective even. I… Continue

I'm contemplating doing what I said I'd never do, shave my head. I'm tired of cleaning hair from all over my house on a daily basis, I almost want to cry when I take a shower, and I cant even look at myself in the mirror anymore. I am very depressed I dont want to leave my house unless i absolutely have to. I have very little hair on the top and two growing patches on the sides of my head.

Ive been up and down emotionally. My hair is still falling out although it is slowing some its still coming out everyday. I have 3 wigs and I got a few new scarves. I dont leave my house without something on my head usually a wig. Ive been wearing a wig to work for a bout 2 weeks now and Im getting sick of their question and comments about why I have a wig on. I just started dating this guy and he knows that I wear a wig, however he has no idea why. The last time we hung out I went without the… Continue

Ive been looking online for wigs and I bought 2, one a 2 tone blonde and black, and a pink one. I like to switch my look up quite a bit so Im looking forward to wearing them. I think the patch in the front of my head is getting bigger and starting to become noticeable so Im always in a hat and I dug out a few of my old scarves. The one good thing about this is Im a free spirit and kind of always do my own thing so wigs and scarves wont be to much of a shock to anyone that knows me. I doubt that… Continue
