Hi Taylor, I wanted to welcome you to Alopecia World. I can honestly say that we are a great community here and I hope you enjoy the time you spend with us. Cheryl, co-founder
I love your intro!!! I have had alopecia since I was 6 months old...and I am so over the pity thing. I have rarely ever worn a wig and I am completely comfortable without the hair. But it is so hard to find others who see it the same way. I rarely join these groups because they rarely see alopecia in an optimistic way...so far I think this one is doing a much better job!!
Bonjour Talyor,
Just read your intro. I must say I envy your comfort with alopecia... I'm not there yet but hopefully, one day I will.
Welcome to this site!

Hi T -
I think that you will like it here because I think many here share your thoughts on the disease. I know exactly what you mean about pity. Sometimes I think people just don't get that hair is really not that important in the end. I have completely adjusted to the disease and even cannot understand why some go to such lengths with treatments when we know that there is no cure for this. My dermatologist told me a long time ago, accept it, who knows one day it may grow back but I don't have anything that will cure this for you. Well, I hope to get the opportunity to chat with you. Have a nice weekend!! :o)
