I live a very active and healthy life. I go to the gym five times a week and run an annual marathon each May. My hair went from being dirty blond to snow white in the course of a few months. Friends and family did not even recognize me the change was so sudden and drastic. I became ashamed of my hair and started waring a hat and avoiding social gatherings.
It has been almost six months now and I am starting to get use to it. The hair has filled in a lot since it first happened, albeit snow white. I am also told that my natural hair colour may return at some point. I am grateful to still have hair.
