Isn't it weird how when it happens to you it's everywhere

I saw a girl with alopecia yesterday, and a guy the other week on the bus (probably, you never know). Göteborg is pretty small in comparison so for me this was huge. Made my day!

And without my alopecia I wouldn't even have noticed. Or I might have noticed and wondered why they didn't have hair.

I'm just sorry if I stared at the guy on the bus I was so elated. But of course I didn't ask him, I didn't want to bother him, I should have instead of staring as if I was the the village idiot.

Hi lynne thanks for your comment. Sound great that you might be able to go without your wig soon. I'm on the other end, I'll soon have to wear a wig or shave or something. I didn't like my own reaction and I hope he wasn't offended.

Yes i believe this aswell. i dont think ive ever noticed someone wearing a wig or scarf infact i wouldnt be able to tell if it was a wig, but once i started wearing them i notice when someone has a wig on as they are a bit shinnier than normal hair and i notice alot of people with scarfs on. I hate when someone stares at me tho as it makes me self consious about it, altho i have my own hair for now and just waiting for the other patches to fill up so can go without my wig for now, x
