I think national acceptance would have to begin in the media, people seem to think if they see it on TV or in a movie, it's okay. I was shopping the other day and asked the clerk where the hats were, she just about pi**ed her pants, she did not want me trying on hats. I thought it was funny, I always carry a wig cap with me for trying on hats, with or without hair, I don't want to catch anything anymore than she thought I would spread anything. But, yeah, I love to see more Bald women...everywhere, it begins with acceptance and rises...

I am confident enough to put myself out there :-) In fact, I was just featured in one of the biggest circulated newspaper in the state for Alopecia awareness month. It was a great article and I was very happy to put myself out there if it will help raise awareness and if it helps just one person, I'm happy!!! I have also written to a couple of the talk shows so who knows, they could possibly respond and do a show for Alopecia awareness!! My Alopecian friend Joyce got a tattoo on Miami Ink.....she is another that is brave enough to put herself out there, and I know that there are many other beautiful bald women out there that would be willing to join us in doing so.
Love and Hugs,
Dotty

i just saw this question when i was on your page :) i really wish there were more women in the media that are bald, that would just make it easier to cope in an non-accepting society (of course, there are exceptions :) but then again..... sometimes i feel like it is so special.... its a rare form of beauty <3 i feel so not typical
