I just want to share an experience I had when attending a luncheon 6 months ago...I got a chance to meet 9 other beautiful women who shared the same condition I have...Alopecia.
Finally I got a chance to see someone of my likeness, some women came to the function without wigs and others had wigs on, but we still shared our stories and felt a sisterhood in our likeness.
I left that luncheon with the understanding of knowing:
We do have options and choices of what we want to wear on our heads, be it our baldness, a wig, a headwrap or a hat...it is our choice!
If you show others that you don't have a problem with being bald when you want to be bald...You show your strength...
It is up to us to show that we are the captains of our ships, who shall and will spread the Awareness of Alopecia and how we as Natural Beauties can live with it how we please!
I want to Thank Thea Chassin again, for bringing "Bald Girls Do Lunch" to Arizona and allowing those of us who met the opportunity for new friendships and sisterhood.
