Hello. I'm new to this whole website thing and find it great to know that I'm not alone. Your video was very inspiring Anna. You are braver than I could ever be.

Hello,
Mary has been a real inspiration to me as well as some other people on this site. I have only this year begun to lose so much of my hair. I have made a promise to myself that if it continues to fall out by early spring then I shave it. I want to get a nice little tan to even out the colour on my beautiful little noggin' by sitting for 15 minutes each day for a while. I can't wait to not have to style my hair.

Today the lady that fitted me for my cpap machine told me how beautiful I was. I was telling her about AA and she said it wouldn't matter if I lost all my hair because of how beautiful I am. Let me tell you, I really needed to hear those words. When I look in the mirror lately ( actually, for quite a while now), I see an overweight old lady who happens to be going bald. I knew this lady was being sincere although, it doesn't go to my head, sometimes I wish it would. I would like to be able to have a little more appreciation for myself. Some days are better than others, thank God.

Hi everybody -

I want to share a couple of videos I just posted showing a day when about 1,000 people in a park in San Diego learned that just because a woman is bald, that doesn't mean she's sick, or that she's embarrassed about her head.

Hello everyone. :)
What a great concept for a group! I feel as though it is partly my responsibility to educate the people I meet - especially those who choose to initiate contact with me in an ignorant way.
I started losing my hair when I was 17, and chose to shave it all off when I was 19. I am 31 years old now and have been completely bald for the last 12 years - discounting a few months of hair I let grow during my pregnancy.
I come accross people in my daily activities in public who would definitely benefit from education. I am proud of who I am and I will never let anyone dictate any change in that feeling that I have about myself. I mean, why should I? Why should we?
Anywho, those are my two cents! :) Im glad to have found a site with such a strong network of people who are involved in at least trying to educate and share. Take care!

everyone at my school knows about my condition....so why don't I take off the bandanna? I am not really sure. I want to be able to tell people why I don't have all my hair. I don't want them thinking, "Bandannas are so not cool!" or something like that. I am kind of confused..........if you have any advice please comment on my page. Thanks -elena
