Mary replied to Charity's discussion Shaving your head. in the group Alopecia Areata"My husband shaved my head in June -well, it actually a buzz cut - at a time when so much of my hair was falling out each time I showered, that it was so difficult for me to cope. I didn't shave it sooner b/c I was diagnosed with a condition…"
courtney replied to Charity's discussion Shaving your head. in the group Alopecia Areata"I feel exactly the same way you do. I don't have a lot of hair left at all but it has grown back in some places and I feel like if I shave it it will just ruin all the progress its made. And I don't have a wig so I guess I'm afraid of…"
Mary replied to Charity's discussion Shaving your head. in the group Alopecia Areata"I agree - even though I'm a woman. I think the eyebrow loss is worse than the hair loss. I can wear a wig or a head scarf , but the loss of eyebrows & eyelashes makes me look ill. Luckily, I wear glasses. As a woman, it's probably more…"
Daniela Nikova replied to Charity's discussion Shaving your head. in the group Alopecia Areata"I made my husband shave my head last summer and honestly It was kind of relief. To have my hair in my hands or on my pillow was worst for me."
Lindsay replied to Charity's discussion Shaving your head. in the group Alopecia Areata"My hair is getting to that point to. I unfortunately bought a wig that hangs on to my hair with those little cips. I wish I hadn't. I want to shave my head so bad! Bald is sooo much better than straggly stingy hair to me =)"

Ellen Orchard replied to Charity's discussion Shaving your head. in the group Alopecia Areata"Hey Charity, I know exactly how you feel...when I first started losing my hair, I waited till the very last possible moment to completely shave my head because I just didn't want to give up on my hair yet. Afterwards, I kept wondering why it…"
Sarah Eisenhardt replied to Charity's discussion Best charities?"No problem if you are doing wig places I would do children with hairloss they give 1 wig a year till age 21 for no charge no strings (better than wigs for kids) often times there is not even a wait there have been many who just walked in and walked…"

Carissa said… - That is an awesome wig you're wearing! If I really didn't know any better, I wouldn't be able to tell at all! Do you mind me asking where you got it? It looks really good on you. I think the cut, particularly, flatters your face shape. And it's a pretty color too! ^^

A little more.
March of 2008 I found a dime sized bald spot while I was doing my hair. My mom took me to the doctor, and he tested me for a few things, and told me it was alopecia areata. It's gotten progressively worse, and now I'm missing all body hair. I have AU now. I've never really had arm hair, so that kinda went along with this. I wear a wig daily, as well as fake eyelashes, and sometimes I draw in my eyebrows. I've tried almost evertything, from creams and steroids, to rogaine, to all sorts of pills, and nothing has made a difference, so I just live with it.
