im not real sure what the brand is. i bought it about 2 years ago. since then i had my old hairstylist cut it that way. it used to be super long. and the pink is just an extention.

but if your looking for some good looking wigs check out "forever young."

i just read your story and i can say i know what you mean. when i went to college it was really hard for me to meet any new friends. eventually the so called "best times of our lives" got to much for me to handle. lets just say college wasent what i thought it could have been. i lost my hair for the first time when i was a senior in high school, so i thought i knew what i was getting myself into when i ventured out into the real world. i was totally unprepared and outnumbered. as a result, i stopped attending school a year and a half later. i moved home and started my life again where i left it. after 2 years my hair was almost completely regrown and i was able to get extentions. then about 6 months or so ago i started loosing again.

now i find myself in the same situation. i have since moved to a bigger city and have yet to make any friends. im still not in school, so there is one obstacle i dont have to traverse. i just keep telling myself that everything will fall into place and get better again.

Hi Julie,

how are you?
ran across your page tonight.

I'm new to this, as my hair started falling out in one spot 6 months ago but I kept ignoring it. I finally went to the doctor when I noticed it had started falling out in another place. So now I know its alopecia, and AARRGGGHHH! It makes me crazy they don't know how bad it will get, what causes it and what helps it! (There are those who say I'm already crazy.) Anyway, don't let anything external define who you are. You're fabulous!

I feel exactly as you do. I have universalis and have lost everything in 2 months. I'm getting married in 5 months and feel really petty that I'm so upset by it. But at the end of the day this really sucks and people to some extent judge on looks but I think not as much as we believe they do. All we can do is get on with our lives and try to enjoy the small things. It's so hard to be yourself with this because you always feel judged. Good luck

I have lost about 75% of hair also....it is terrible...I am still coping though....I have a wig of course...when i take it off I just wanna start screaming at myself!!!!!!!! Well Thank god I have it on all the time mostly....

oh and i forgot....why do u call yourself julie peach?
I see that u have a tattoo....

How old r u? 20 or something??????????

hey there! no, the patches are not a very pretty site. sometimes i'll stare at mine in disbelief. anywayyyy, forget about those people who are telling you your spots look "sick and disgusting". honesty sh-monesty, it's only going to make you feel worse, right? when my spots r no longer concealable it will definitely be hats & wigs for me! i guess the only thing we can do is focus on our surroundings and psych ourselves out to not obsess about the dreaded bald spots =/ i wish i had better advice. i'm a newbie =/ anyway! forget ur hair, u're so pretty!

take care!

Hi Julie, 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 and we look forward to your input. Cheryl, co-founder

Hi Julie,
I know how hard it can be. I have had alopecia for about 30 years. After I became the spokesperson for the National Alopecia Areata Foundation, a lot of women were needing my help and support, so I wrote a book called, "If Your Hair Falls Out, Keep Dancing!" It might make you feel better. Check it out on my page -- and let me know how else I can help.
