Howdy Doo,

I actually kinda sorta like having alopecia too. If I didn't I wouldnt have such wonderful friends.
I'm not really sure where I am with my alopecia. More and more hair is sprouting. Scalp is a 60/40 blend of dark and white. Arms are sprouting lots of white. Legs are sprouting dark.
It's all good whatever happens.

Hugz,

Jeffrey

Hello Jeffrey!

Awesome news!! yoo hoo! So reassuring to hear some good news.... thanks for sharing! How's your re-growth doing? Still seeing more dark hairs? I have not doubts that will be your story one of these days!

Hey Natalie- I am happy you are happy! :) And like you I hope that everyone finds the answers to their prayers what ever they maybe! :)

Thanks for the positive news, Jeffrey. Maybe I am speaking for myself, but I don't think that all alopecians necessarily want their hair to grow back, though. People ask me all the time what I'm doing to help it grow back, or they ask if I think it will ever come back. My response to them is that while I appreciate their concerns, I hope that my hair never comes back! My life with a bald head is so much easier than when I had hair! My showers are soooo fast, and when I work-out before work in the morning, my "primp" time takes about half as long as the other ladies in the locker room who have to blow dry and style their hair every day. I just pop my wig on and off I go! And the wigs I have now are so much more beautiful than any hair I had ever grown on my own.

The other day I was talking to someone about my alopecia, and he said "Oh, I know what that is, my cousin suffers from it." And I politely interjected "I certainly do not suffer from alopecia, I feel infintely lucky to have it!" And that is the honest-to-goodness truth. So while many of you may pray for the return of your hair (and if that is your hope, then I am with you all the way), I love my hairless, alopecia life!! :)
