About Me:
ive been suffering with alopecia since i was 5. all my hair fell out back than along with my eyebrows and lashes. i didnt care i was little. i only cared about playing. my hair got better as time went on. i only had a bald spot on the back of my head which i could cover easily. my eyebrows and lashes grew back beautifully. im now 17 and more hair is falling out. my forhead line is receding. the back of my hair has gotten worse. it grew back wonderfully for a while the back the sides the forehead. just recently its gotten bad. the sides are falling out and the back is getting bigger. i have a thyroid problem so it could be that. my allergies are bad so it could be that. im a healthy person and feel 100% fine when im not in a mirror. the mirror scares me ,cause it leads to questions and fears. will its all fall out? will i find a boy who will still find me attractive with no hair if it does fall out? WILL IT GROW BACK? this happens frequently it falls out than grows back. my mom thinks its just seasonal. id like to find some comfort so im not always crying and worrying. because that will not help. and i know i have it pretty good, if that he only thing wrong. thank god he has kept me healthy.

today i decieded agianst the extensions and went out in the world with my bald back head. it was challenging and exciting. exciting because this is a big step for me in my decision in shaving my head. to be comfortable with me. to show the world this is me. i have alopecia, and feel free to stare, i would be curious too.



challenging because first i was unsure i kept playing with the little hair i had. than i stopped. took a deep breath and walked around being comfortable with who i… Continue

Hello and welcome, Lauren!
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. You can find out more on my page -- and let me know if there's anything else I can do!
