wow

I haven't so many beautiful bald people like this ever!!!! This is a big deal to me because people, especially in my own family would have me believe that I should be ashamed of what has happened to me, or my appearance for that matter. I would never forget when a relative said to me, "how can you be bald and be a stylist? I wouldn't let you touch my head!". but I didn't let that jerk the benefit of beliving anything he had to say and I'm glad I wasn't wrong! Just seeing you all makes me feel good inside, I'm not ashamed or embarassed and I'm not alone!

Porcia,

I remember attending my first National Alopecia Areata Foundation conference and having the same feelings. The feeling that, this is going to be ok. I looked around me and saw people that were still getting degrees, getting married, having children, working, modeling, participating in sports, singing or dancing professionally... and it was such a relief to see others living full lives. Which is exactly what I need to see at that time. This is exactly what this site is all about! I am so glad that you are here!
