Well- my hair grew back- it stayed for over a year, now it's all gone again! Very disheartening! But easier to deal with second time around!
I now have 2 beautiful boys- maybe my body doesn't like being pregnant? (now I am reaching)
I haven't visited this site since my hair grew back- trying to ignore the possibility of it going again perhaps?!
Hope u are all still here?!
Wondering if there are any alopecians in my new home town of Wagga Wagga Australia?! How would I go about finding out wether it's worth starting a support group?
I think I remember meeting you at the coffee thing! You did run off pretty quickly - but I understand - can be overwhelming meeting all these crazy bald people at once :c) Especially in a public place.
Hope to get a chance to talk to you at the next meeting.
when you say you washed your wig... did you use normal shampoo and conditioner?... or did you get special wig shampoo and conditioner...
cos using the normal stuff will make it go all crappy....did you check out that wigs online site?... the synthetic wigs they have on there are incredible!...
just saw Tim's member page!!!!! I saw what he wrote - made me get a big lump in my throat... arn't we lucky - my husband is very like Tim in how he helps me be strong and cope with this...
Love and hugs

Hi Martina
Congrats on you upcoming wedding, its so exciting.
I live in Toowong, and have only been in Brissie and Australia actually for 8 months. Originally from South Africa. My partner and I had our civil marriage service on the 11th of Aug last year, and having our big fat Greek wedding, on the 3rd of May in South Africa. We split the 2 to try and accommodate my family and his and to save up for a nice wedding. So our wedding days are very close ...
My alopecia story is my sister. She has had alopecia (eventually became alopecia universalis) since the age of 14 (she is also on this site - Nektaria), and I am here in support of her, and all others who have the condition.
Where are you having your wedding? Have you decided on a colour theme?
You look great in your profile pic:)
another great place to find gorgeous wigs is an aussie site calls wigs online.... http://www.wigsonline.com.au
thats actually where i got the one im wearing in the pic... it cost $104.00 it was a little more expensive... but not as much as they are at starkles, i do have another one.. longer red haired one... thats the one i got from ebay for less than 50 bucks.... check em out
i got my wig from ebay.. its a synthetic wig.. but feels completely real.. its very comfortable and easy to look after.... just do a search for wigs on ebay... there are sooooo many on there... and cheap too!
love your page!!!!! you look great! I guess Tim's been away TOO LONG now - when is he home...?
Probably the wrong question sorry. All well here - I am planning another meeting soon I promise it's just that I am working saturday and Sundays now so need to work out how I am going to fit it in...
ANGE :-))))) great website don't you think?
Thanks for writing, I appreciate it. You are so gorgeous and you have a smile to die for. So is that a wig in your pictures? I can't tell. I have lost about 50% of my hiar, but still just use concealer and style certain ways and most do not know about it. Do you know the reason for your loss? Probably just a shift in hormones after your sons birth. In most cases that grows back. Im not sure what mine is other than that medication. Are youdoing anything to cause regrowth like medication or anything? Write back when you can. :) And can I ask you if its a pain to wear wigs? Is it comfortable? I get worried thinking about it. :(
