International Alopecia Day is Saturday, August 6, 2011!

For those of you who don't know about it, International Alopecia Day is an annual event that got started right here on Alopecia World a couple of years ago.

It's a day to celebrate who we are, be proud, raise awareness among non-Alopecians, and connect with other people with hair loss. Here's the Group page where you can join:

Here's the video slide show from last year's international event - you can be a part of the 2011 slide show that I'll put together by taking photos, particularly with a sign that says "International Alopecia Day 2011 - (name of your city)"

There's also a Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/#!/groups/127776920630407/

Whether you have a one-person celebration, get together in a park or restaurant with friends, or plan something bigger, be part of it!

Hi everyone - remember to send me photos from your event. You can attach them to an AlopeciaWorld message to me (by clicking the "image" icon, the second from the left at the top of the message box, and uploading from your computer), or if you post a photo on AW, just let me know and I can capture it.

I'm working on my 2011 YouTube video/slide show now, and I look forward to including your pics! Be sure to tell me your location so I can identify it.

Hi AJ - I've posted something on the International Alopecia Day Group asking if anyone knows of any events in the UK. Even if you don't locate one, you can have your own celebration and send me a photo to represent where you live.

Does anybody know if there are any events in the UK?

Welcome to all our new members of the Group! Let's see if we can have more locations represented than in the previous two years.

I'll be that one person representing my location, just like last year!

Great!

Hope so! As you saw in last year's video - even one person can represent a location.
