life without a wig
It has been 26 weeks since I first lost my hair. After many steriod shots, minoxdil applications, no night shifts, and eating right, I FINALLY HAVE REGROWTH~~~~~~~ I can go out without a wig. Although my hair strand is thinner than normal, at least I can have my own hair on my own head. Hopefully my regrowth will stay...

I am glad for you. I really am. But from someone who has had this condition, Alopecia totalis for over 40 years,
I can tell you so far, that there is no cure, and that the only sure thing about alopecia is its unpredictability. I have read about many of these treatments and as far as I have read no one solution is "the cure." And personally, I'm sorry, but think that most of it is snake oil. I think the hardest thing that I have had to deal with is not the condition itself over these years, but the attitudes of others who either don't understand why we look the way we do, or make derogatory assumptions based on their own ignorance. Thanks and good luck. Mark Hansen thehansen@yahoo.com
