I also used Hair Up for my son who was 17months old when we started. By this point he was actually almost universalis. All that was left was eyebrows and eyelashes and they had thinned. We didn't even realise the hair on his body was gone until…

My hair use to grow back to it's full color and thickness but over the years it's stopped growing back as thick and most of the hair that did come back came back white/gray. I have a lot of white in my beard now too.

Thanks Shannon
So white hair isn't good then?? What if some hair is dark but others are growing in white?? What does that mean? This is all very confusing.
Thank you

My hair did grow in lighter, and then slowly darkened. I shave it, and I think that helps. It's not that it changes the new growth's texture, but more that it just trims the new hair as it grows in.
Another question...has anyone noticed a…

Hi Saida
Im so sorry to hear your daughter hasn't had any luck with Hair Up. we are trying it right now, its been 2 months. There is a fair amount of white regrowth but still some bald spots. Did your daughter have NO regrowth at all?
Hope you…

I have had alopecia since June 2009. I have a very large bald patch with 'white' growth. I am just happy to have hair. I am 55 so it doesn't matter if my hair remains grey.

HI Christa,
Don't give up on getting your hair back. I started out with ophiasis and right now that is where my hair regrowth is the strongest. I am working hard at getting my hair back, but not with chemicals this time - getting to the root of…
Fizza commented on Miranda's group 'Parents of Children with Hairloss'
Just wanted to send out a positive vibe. I just came back from a Pro Makeup Show in LA and there was a very good looking young guy with AU working at the show! I would have thought it was a strange place to work but just goes to show AU doesn't…

Angie - I really hope that comes to fruition. I thinkt he teen years will be the worse for our kids. I hope they find a cure and that it has no side effects!
Fizza replied to Louise (Jeremy's mom)'s discussion 'Hair Up treatment' in the group Parents of Children with Hairloss
There are a couple of other Moms on here who have used it. I think Christine Messner is one. You might find some posts from her in the discussions. Her son is on Dr Gonen's testimonials page.
I have a boy and I'm praying that this works.…

Louise I know how you feel. My 17month old started losing hair 6months ago and is now 98% bald. We have recnetly started noticing his eyebrows are thinning and I just ordered Hair Up. I have wondered how long you have to keep using it for and the Dr…

- My 13month old son was recently diagnosed with alopecia. I noticed patches appearing on his head a month or 2 ago, but thought it was just from rubbing. I'm hping this is going to be temporary and go away but am trying to be prepared in case it doesn't go away.
Right now, he has several small patches, none completely bald, but the top of his head, the hair is very thin. This is kind of one big patch. My son had chicken pox a few months ago and is slightly low in iron, so weare giving him fer-in-sol drops. Just started this week. Hping that this helps. If anyone has any advice or experience with alopecia at such a young age, I'd lvoe to ehar from you. Thanks!

Lynn AKA Mom of 2 w/AA said… - Hi there FIzza! Sorry to learn your son has AA. My kids are 11 and 12 years old. I feel kind of bad for complaining. By looking at the kids, you'd never know they have AA ~ so far, it is concealed and they go for treatments every four weeks. There is a wonderful support group over at the Stanford Medical Center - that I believe meets once a month. Write any time & take care!

- Hi Fizza,
Thanks for contacting me. To be honest since I shaved my head in July (all I had left was on the top of my head) it started to grow back right away and is now thicker and darker than it has ever been and it is growing in curly. You say your son is 14 months old. Has he been diagnosed with alopecia or do you just think this is what it might be? I only ask because baby's hair does tend to thin and fall out. My dr. did tell me that there is a type of alopecia where it breaks off just before the root. I am hoping that my hair returning is a good sign although weirdly I have dreams quite often of it falling out again. Eeek!!
