I don't even know where to begin. I have dreadlocks, (locs) down my back with one side and back shaved. I always knew the top of my head was a little then, but I thought it was because of the way I twisted it, so I made a decision to not twist it so often. Then last week, I lost a loc. I started feeling around and there was no new growth and all of the locs in that area were barely hanging on. I went to the doctor and he gave me my diagnosis. Next week I go to the dermatologist to learn why type of treatment I will need.

This is so scary to me. I have no way of hiding it, if I loose any more locs. I don't want to shave my head.

I am overweight and have a fat face. It will not look pretty. I feel so shallow as I read this out loud. But it's my hair! I can't believe this is happening. I wish I could cover the center of my head with a piece or something.

I'm glad I found this site, but it's a little overwhelming. I don't anyone with this form of alopecia. I welcome the support and advice.
