Hi all, Been awhile since I posted, but finally accepted having no hair only took a year....yeah go me, but now I am looking for a new Job as my Job is being made redundant and I have an interview on Monday but don't know how to address the Alopecia thing my current work place was accepting but the idea of having to make new employers understand is hard, Just wondering does anyone have a booklet or a letter they have attached to there resume's or given out that explains it, something that states having no hair does not make me incapable of working....
Thanks in advance...

and thats the point that I want to make at the interview... at the end of the day I think I will present myself the best I am and deal with the outcome later...

Thanks for the responses, i prefer beanies, I think its just as I have no eyelashes or eyebrows so wearing a wig does not seem to suit me.

I wait until I get hired, then explain that, when teaching, I may need some support if students tease me. But I wait until I am solidly into the job the first few days. Then, they would look like they were discriminating if they un-hired me!
