Hi Laurie - so sorry for the delay in my response! Thanks for reaching out and telling me your story. What you decide to do is an extremely personal choice, and it all comes down to what is going to make you feel most comfortable. I meet some women who decide to wear hair pieces before their hair loss becomes significant so that it will be less of a transition in the future, and I meet others, like yourself, who really want to wait and see what happens with their hair first before making any moves. Unfortunately, the medical side of all of this really has no rhyme or reason, so its hard to predict what may happen. If you want to make a change that will help you look better, and thus feel better – that is something you have to decide. Worrying about your hair can be very consuming!!! I do hope you find a solution and keep your chin up. You can always call me at my salon, 1-800-217-9052....
Hi Laurie! My husband and I live in the Galleria area right now, but are moving to the Heights area next month. I worked for a law firm in Austin and when I moved to Houston I was able to keep on working for them so I work from home now part time. When your boys go back to school and you have some free time let me know. Maybe we can get together for coffee.
Hi Laura,
You don't mind me asking but what did the doctor prescribe for you for your androgen sensitivity and hormone inbalance? I suspect that is what is why I am losing my hair.
Have a great weekend!!!
Hi Laurie! Thanks for sending me a message. I just moved to Houston from Austin in February. Still trying to find my way around Houston and learning about all the neat places in Houston. My husband laughs at me because when ever we drive to places I am not familiar with around Houston I always get confused =) I think we have been in Pearland before. Your boys are adorable!!! I hope you had a great week!!
Welcome to a network of those who truly accept you for you. So glad you found us. Where are you from? I am from the Northwest. Lovely part of the country, but it has been too cold this year for me (60 - 70 degrees in the middle of July). Yuck. To say the least no tan for me. ~Danna
I too have the cystic acne, oily skin, and oily hair. I never had acne as a teenager but started getting it about 2 years ago. It's not really bad but when I get one it's like a big knot.
Hi Laurie, 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
