Sorry, but no way do I think that bald is beautiful - not in my case anyway. I had the most gorgeous luxurious hair and now it's gone, I am absolutely devastated. Baldness, in varying degrees, has plagued me since I was about 12 years of age. Now at menopause, I have lost it all. However, I have totally accepted my condition and try to make the best of a bad job. Once 'I came out' to work colleagues and friends, I coped much better with the whole ordeal. Also, once I eventually found some wigs that I actually liked a lot, was able to get on with my life and I even go sailing (wearing a hoodie, prepared for any eventuality!) There is life again after Alopecia.....
