My hair growing back
Well, last May I started losing my hair and over the last 7 months, probably lost 80%. The only hair left was above my nape. I had long thick hair, so it was a bloody shock. What I've learnt from this Alopecia World is, if your hair grows back, some people say you don't need this website.I needed this website for those 7 months and still need it now, although my hair is now growing back. I am a changed person. All my life I had long thick hair. I have hair growing back, but I will look different. I've spent months covering my scalp as all the bald patches. But I'm nearly there with all patches covered it's all short and tufts now and I hope it doesn't fall out again. But who knows!

Very happy for you. Enjoy it! If it doesn't last, don't let it throw you though. Sometimes it can be a cyclical disease - but other times, it's just a one off thing! We all hope that for you, it was just once! The most important thing is to be happy and healthy, with or without!

It's a wonderful feeling, congratulations!! Mine also started growing back. I decided to stop shaving my head about 4 Months ago and just let it grow and kept the spots hidden with a hat. It looked hideous, but the hat helped. I don't know if this helped my patches or not, but I also started taking Biotin 10,000 mcg with 100mg keratin (Spring Valley brand from Wal-Mart) as you mentioned with yourself, my head was also about 80% bald patches, but now I have just one small bald patch that I comb hair over it to cover it up. I can finally go out without a hat on.

That is absolutely awesome! A year ago mine all fell out EVERYWHERE! Talk about strange! I looked weird, but didn't let it bother me. I wore hats, wigs, makeup and it all worked. The biggest thing I did over the last year is gluten free and clean eating, icing any skin inflammations, avoiding methylisothiazolinone, methylisothiazolinone, quaterium-15 and formaldehyde since I tested positive with all of these in my skin allergy tests. Once I quit using any products with those ingredients my hair started growing back. It's slow going but eyebrows are back and eyelashes are starting. I am SO happy for you! It's a great feeling!!!!

Hello,
Exactly on December 25th 2012, I lost 2 "circles" of hair: top and back of my head. big shock!!!!!
Took 200 Biotin pills (100 pill/bottle COSTCO) and a doctor provided steroids (cream and liquid formulas later on).
I recovered 100% of the hair in both patches...but just got a new, smaller one...don't want even to look for more...just sharing :(

Hi guys, thanks for all your lovely comments!! I was taking Vitamin B Complex, also Biotin 1000 mcg and probiotics in tablet form, that was it. I used to massage my scalp with raw coconut to get the hair follicles going, I went to see a Ayuerveda practitioner and she went through ways to control my stress which I think has made a huge difference... I think were all so busy in our everyday life are bodies weren't made for all of this, we just need to Stop, Sit Back and relax once in a while, I know it's hard but for me it's made a big difference... I'm actually a much happier person now, for this happening to me.
Take care guys!!!
