Your story about when you first experienced alopecia sounds so familiar. I'm sure it sounds familiar to alot of people. For the past year there has been no one I could talk to that truly understood what I was going through. I feel so Isolated and actually paralyzed. Your story has given me some strength. So, thank you.

oh well congratulations on your big day!! thats so exciting!! and i think im going to go this year, its my first year but its a lot of poeple ive talked to first years so it should be lots and lots of fun!!
I never would have known that your eye brows are tattooed on. Excellent job by the tattoo artist! I hope that if my eyebrows fall out I will be able to find someone who can do such a beautiful job.
Your eyebrow/lashline tattoos look amazing!! I also am writing to ask you something. I was just curious what type of wig you have and where you got it. It looks fantastic! I like the ones I get... but they are very pricey so I don't get them as often as I'd like. So, I am just looking at some other ones out there. Have a good day! :)
Hi Nicole, It is so nice to meet you! I am from Rhode Island and yes, we have had a long, cold winter here. Looking forward to the Spring and Summer so much. Nicole, I love your wig, it really looks beautiful on you. I am in the market for a new one but want a change. What kind is yours? Thank you for the message and I look forward to chatting with you!
Lookin' good, Nicole! I'm going for my consultation with Permanent Cosmetics of Maryland tomorrow. Fingers crossed! If I like her portfolio of work, I'm gonna get it done right then and there!!!!
hey nicole! ive been living with alopecia totalis for a little over a year now! started to fall out right before my senior prom and graduation! but it doesnt botter me as it use to becuase i cant control it and there are bigger things going on in life then hair! are you going to the convention in june?
Hi Nicole- Can't wait to see the pictures of your new look. I live in Laconia, NH.... probably have heard of it because of Bike Week at Wears Beach... Wears is like 5 miles from my house. Cheers. - Lori
Hi Nicole- I was wondering how your eyebrow experience went.... my daughter doesn't have eyebrows, but seems as though no one notices.... yet. Anywho, just curious... I showed your picture to my daughter who has AA and is about to get her first wig and she couldn't believe you were like her because you are so beautiful.... I think she came to a realization that she can be beautiful with or without hair. Thanks. - Lori
Cool...thanks. I've actually got an appointment with Susan Davis from Permament Cosmetics of Maryland next week. I want the individual hair look, too - as natural as possible. I think I'm more excited than nervous. I also want the eyeliner, but we'll see how the brows go first! Take care :)
Aw, good I'm so glad you got them done! I know you'll love them just like i do! I can't wait to see pics! Thanks so much for the compliment on that picture of mine. I took it a while back whenever i still hadn't quite come to terms with my alopecia, I still took it, & i knew I'd want it someday, but it took me a while to be able to let other see it. I know even have it on my myspace for everyone to see! I've come a long way lately.
Glad it went well. Tell me about the pain levels (I'm thinking the lash line would hurt more?). Also, did he do individual strokes that look more like hairs or more like a penciled in type brow? I've placed a couple of calls to people here in MD, but haven't scheduled anything yet.
