I have a question regarding AA what are the chances of having it rather widespread, and then for the hair to come back? Is it possible to just have it once in your life and for it never to return? or are the chances of that very slim? I AM DESPARATE for some hope cant think of having to deal with this torment for the rest of my life please help. Clare Majka

For everyone it is different this disease is so unpredictable. It falls, it grows back, it never grows back, no on really knows. Treatments work for some and not for others, many time treatments are temporary. The unknown. What I do know (most of it through this site) is that we are who we are inside and we each must build that self-esteem at all cost. I and I'm sure many here know how you feel, we've been there. But Clare you have to find the way to see yourself through the eyes of your inner self. I sometimes get up and feel down but than I begin to think of all the things (worst) that I could have instead and I rejoice. No hair but we are healthy. Love your family, kids and true friends but most of all (((HUG))) yourself and love yourself. I'm (We) here for you. I love AW because we are not alone. I wear a wig every single day and I love it. They are not so bad, you just have to find one that works for you.

Hi Clare,
Always have hope. Your hair can grow back at any time. The disease just needs to shut itself off.
I was completly AU for a year and am now at about 80% regrowth.
Hang in there!

I started losing my hair 9 months ago and was completely bald within a few weeks. I already have a full head of hair- thicker and healthier than it was before. Every specialist I spoke to said there was little hope of it growing back or any time soon. I fully appreciate how lucky I am and want you to know there is definitly hope out there.xx
