I believe we are all model material in our own special way. My future clothing line will highlight everyone so keep the modeling thing in mind.

Hello Susan, nice picture you had=) I´m really happy to find this site and hope to make many new friends here. By from Sweden (It´s time to go to bed for me)

I do swim alot, and excersise occasionally. :) When I swim most often I go to my dads pool. If it is just me and my babies I go commando (blad). If my step daughters or any friends are there that I see all the time I wear a swimming cap or just a bandana. And if I go to the lake or ocean or public place I have an older wig that I don't care if it gets cruddy. I wear that with a bandana on top to hold it on. I have my "workout wig". Same thing an old one that I don't care much about and if it gets sweaty and I can just wash it. I am trying to get more confidence to just go out with just a scarf or bandana but I am not there yet.

Thank you. Everyone is proud of me and counting on me and when things get hard all I can think about is my family is counting on me. The woman who actually inspired me to become a fashion designer was my great-grandmother. She passed away about 2 weeks ago and it was hard for everyone to take. I didn't want to leave home during this sad time, but I know she would have wanted me to become a fashion designer and that gives me more motivation. Sure, I wouldn't mind hooking you help with some apparel. I will always need models, so maybe I can get you out of North Carolina to New York to walk on the runway for me. It might be in a few years through, but keep that in mind. LOL! I'm sure you don't get on your sons nerves. My mom and my brother used to have that same problem. They are about 21 years apart and my brother looks just like my dad, so people would always get confused. I think hanging out with you and your family would be cool.

My wigs are all synthetic.. I am hoping to get a human one someday soon! I think I have just practiced a lot at making them look real haha, I did go to hairstyling school as well so maybe that helped.

Hey thanks!! Yeah I like that one too! i need a new red one I have decided though, just need to save up! How's your day going?

Hi Susan, Sounds like you had a busy day! My son left at noon to go back to College spring break is over :( miss him already. We are going to drive up there for Easter. So we can spend the holiday with him and also it's his Birthday on the 26th. Where do you live? cause you said it was raining. It stopped here and the sun is out :).

Have a great Day!

aww lol idk what im doing this weekend, ive been sick the past few days so i think im just gonna take it easy and stay home and watch movies lol

I'm glad you think so. Many people say that I wouldnt be able to do both, so thanks a lot. My mom started at a young age too. She is really close to all of us and we can talk to her about anything. I mean if you cant talk to your mom who can you talk to, right? My mom raised us the same way. I've been washing clothes, cleaning, and cooking since about age 5. It is good you taught your sons that because many guys I know do not know how to do things for themselves. It is also good you are a supportive mom. That is very important to have. I am the first one in my family to go off to college and my mom felt the way you do now, but she knows that I have to grow up. It was hard to let go at first, but she is proud of me. I know you will be the same way with your sons. By the way, you have a beautiful family and seem like you are not just a cool mom, but a cool person too.

i would prob think the same thing too lol

Hi Susan, How are you doing this fine weekend?

Maureen

Hi Susan. Thanks for your comment on my blog post. I agree, losing your hair is an unbelievably difficult emotional experience. I started losing mine when I was 6, and have been completely bald since age 11. It's something we do and will deal with every single day...But, you don't have to be defined by your hair. You are someone so much more interesting and beautiful. Hair is simply an accessory.

Thank you so much. You are pretty too! I think alopecia makes all of us just a lil more, extra sexy than we already are, because everyone cant have alopecia like we do :)
I see your a mother. I have a friend and he has his whole future planned out as well as I, but I kinda left the part out about starting a family and having children, because I heard its a hard job to be a mother and focus a career. Maybe you can give me some advice so i can use in the future.

Yes, you can wear lace wigs if you don't have hair. Most anyone can wear them except those with very long and thick hair. Check out my site www.ladylacewigsandhair.com for info on the wigs and contact me directly at ladylacewigsandhair@gmail.com if you need help with ordering from ANY site. You don't have to purchase from me. But I would love to help you out with the process:)

ummm well lets not even talk about what i did to get grounded...lol...so yea...@!!1 no prob for adding you!!! i love this place!!! its badass!!!

Yes, we are close. I have family in Statesville and I think my uncle may live in Mooresville. I'm not sure where any of the Walmarts are though. I have AA. Yes I read your about me and I noticed that and it made me think of something. I 1st lost hair in the 1st grade, but in eighth grade I got pneumonia and had to get on antibiotics and afterwards my hair fell out. I am still not sure if the meds had an affect on me. But I went to the dermatologist and she didn't even look at my scalp. She tried to tell me it came for perms and braiding, etc. Finally after my mom stepped in and told her that a friend of her says that I was showing signs of Alopecia, she finally looked at my scalp and diagnose. I have had 4 different people diagnose me with AA. It was painful, because I had really long pretty hair and I didn't want to accept the face that it was falling out. I had low self esteem too for a long time and I have had a hard time dating too. But I feel so much better about myself now.

Girl you better leave that glue alone. get your fingers stuck to the table LOL

Hey girl! I live in Salisbury, which is about 45 min from Charlotte. It is good to meet another person from NC. I read your about me section and I know how you feel. I was like that when i 1st started to lose my hair.

You bet!! I've cried so many times..don't know a person coud shed so many tears. Like I said, it ended when I had the "big shave". But, needless to say, not sure how far a.a. has come for you. Do you think you'll ever get to shaving it and getting a wig or not anytime soon???
Either way...please know that i'm here for you. I've said that way to many times already.
