Hi Jackie, I want to ask your permission to include what you said about self esteem in a talk I'm giving at my Toastmasters club. I've already talked about alopecia but your comments come at it from a different angle.

Oh my Yes!  Please. No one should suffer.  Do what it takes to help people cope.

Toastmasters club sounds interesting.  Where are you located?

Comment by Pat on March 24, 2017 at 1:29am

Oh thank you! Toastmasters are everywhere but I'm located in Queensland Australia. It's a great organisation to work on confidence and presentation skills...both of which I badly needed after being raised in a cult and then losing my hair in my late 30s. I became agoraphobic and had terrible panic attacks.

Raised in a cult? You are certainly one in a million. I'm happy that you're finding your way in the world.

Thanks Jackie, good video! And interesting concept, I like that be responsible yourself and happyness. :) may i ask the glue you use? Is it painful to remove? Would be fun sometime to wear a wig with long hair and pony tail. Thanks so much

Hi. The glue is BMA No Mess Crazy Hold Tube Super Lace Glue (long name!)

I don't experience pain removing the unit once it's been applied with the glue. I probably would if I had bio hair, which obviously I don't.

There is a citrus based remover that you can purchase. It helps with removal and wipes clean any glue residue.

About being responsible for happiness? Yes. I waited years for that pivotal moment when I would just LOVE myself.

To this day, I don't know what that means, but at least now I treat myself the way love describes that I should. It's or responsibility

Thought I'd tell you my speech went over well, got a few laughs as well as really good feedback. Thanks again!
