About Me:
I am a wife. I am a mother. I am a runner. I am an Alopecian. It doesn't define me. I started losing my hair when I was 19 and have gone through all the stages with it that are possible. My breakthrough came with a beautiful tattoo on my head that I love to show off. So I have stopped wearing wigs/hats every time I go out and have gotten really comfortable with showing my "true side."
Do you have alopecia?
Alopecia universalis
Are you age 18 or older?
Yes - I am 18 or older

I can't believe no one is talking about this so I had to post. Researchers at Columbia University have discovered the 8 genes where Alopecia lies. This is a huge step forward. These are a few links I have found.

I have alopecia, and three other autoimmune diseases.  My daughter has just been diagnosed with alopecia.  I wish they would find a cure.

Hi Kate,

Thanks for the comment! Congrats on the birth of your baby! How old is she/he? I live in N. Phoenix (Carefree Highway & I17 area) so I'm pretty far from all of the events too. I do hope to meet everyone soon.

Hi, Thanks for adding me. I've being dealing with my AA for a couple of years now & I'm getting to the point of purchasing my 1st wig, I love this site & hope to meet some other people in AZ. Have you met with anyone from the support groups here?

Hey Kate,
Hope you are feeling better! The meeting went good on the 17th, we all learned tricks from each other. I'm going to try and post my next "How-To" on the Alopecia Diva site because it's easier to post there with photos. My plan is to do a get-together for the Diva's at least once every season if not more. Will keep you posted.

I had so much fun too. It was a magical day. We all just instantly clicked. So how about we do lunch sometime? Since your not working yet I thought it would be nice for you and I to get together. Tuesdays and Thursdays are best for me. Well, get back to me on that. Call me, OK? Take care gorgeous lady! Love, Sarah
