Relationship Status: Married

About Me: I am from New Zealand and have had AU 8 years. After a couple of small patches, I got AU 4 months before my wedding - now that was challenging. All was well though and I got married as a blond. Since then I have had lots of fun with red, black, blond wigs - there are some advantages!

I am fine with not having hair and have certainly learned to get around it. I have my wig at work look, and my natural at home and with friends look. It has certainly never stopped me doing lots of things I love like scuba diving and skiing, just means that the head gets a little colder.

In recent years I have done permanent makeup on my eyebrows and eyeliner which I really love. I have found that it has really made me look better especially, especially as I am so fair.

I have actually never meet or really spoken to anyone with Alopecia, and this is the first time I have seen so many beautiful looking Alopecia people. You all look great!

Do you have alopecia? (Choose appropriately): Alopecia universalis

Are you age 18 or older?: Yes

Thanks so much for the comment - I don't get up to Auckland all that often but would be tempted! I've found the Freedom wig difficult in terms of styling and colouring - the lady I went to here is not happy with colouring it and my experience at a regular salon has put me off going that way again!
You look so good in your photos :)

At 7:37pm on September 23, 2010, Susannah M said…: Hi Kath, thanks for introducing yourself. Yes it would be nice to meet up sometime, or get to know other kids with Alopecia in Auckland. This site is great when I feel a little sad about his hair loss, as I don't feel like he is the only one going through it.

It was great fun travelling with the kids. Although I have to say the North Americans are a lot more forward when looking our bald child. We were at a McDonald's in rural Ontario and the manager came out an ask Madi if she would like to come back and make herself a sundae. After we left Madi kept asking why that lady did that for her. I told her it was because of her accent and they new she was from another country.

Anyhow we are glad to be home. Bring on summer! Great to hear from you. Hope to meet with you soon Fiona

Thanks for your comment! It's very exciting to come on here and see others in NZ with Alopecia. I am yet to meet anyone who also has Alopecia, and I certainly don't see any around Wellington going 'au natural', so I'm guessing they must all be wearing fabulous wigs! :)
