....
i love showering and applying body lotion to my bald head.
i love my smooth legs and underarms that never need shaving.
i love walking into a room and feeling like I don't look like every other woman there.
i love how easy it is to take off a wet scuba diving suit and hood.
I love the new self-confidence that being bald has given me.
i love Alopecia World and my friends here.

(thanks for the blog - beautiful)

This alopecia is truly a love/hate relationship. Lovely poem, too.

Thanks for sharing Whitney. I noticed that as you got closer to the things that really mattered to you the "love sentences" began ending with loving who you are, very important that the people close by you are the ones that support you.

Me too, it does make me feel alittle freakish...but I have always been the one in the family that did all the crazy things..so going bald is no biggie
