Everyone who knows me personally know that I "march to the beat of a different drum". But for years I was creating a problem by wearing weaves and braids which caused a condition called "Traction Alopecia". I finally decided to let the hair bonding, quick gluing weaves go! I prayed on it and of course God answered and said "I love you" no matter how much hair you have on your head. As my grandmother used to say, "Its not what's on top of your head but what's inside of your head". I do work in "Corporate America" and will still have to do the "Lace wigs" (Thank God for those!) But in my own element, I'm letting it all "HANG OUT"! Now, I'll be known as the "Bald-headed" Photographer! LOL!!! Naw...but whatever you want to call me, I'm still Dee and I'm Happy being Me!!!! Thank you Lord for WISDOM!!!

Thank You Annette...It is indeed an epidemic and I feel that I should let everyone that comes in my midst know of this problem that affects so many of us. I wish that I had someone in my life that could have shared this epidemic that we ourselves are causing. I have posted this video on Facebook and You tube also. Hopefully many will see it and educate each other on not just "Traction Alopecia" but Alopecia in general. We have got to learn to not be ashamed of alopecia but to embrace it so that we can move on and enjoy the life we are given.
