Hi Us "Baldies" are beautiful regardless of our sexuality.I suppose you could say "alopecia is non judgemental, when it come to picking a victim". Pity everybody was'nt the same! LOL

About Me:
I have had Alopecia Universalis since 2003. Mostly I am fine about it, but just occasionally, somebody stares or says something and it gets to me, but then I expect we are all like that.

I am single again after a long marriage. Being single has changed my outlook on life, I feel for the first time in years I am myself, but miss being in a relationship.

I know nobody who has alopecia, but suspect there are people in my area who are, but always wear a hair piece. My wig used to go on when the weather got chilly, and went back in the box asap ! but now I very rarely wear a wig. I felt that I was wearing the wig for other people and their feelings, and not for me, so now people see I’m bald and they are the ones who have to deal with it. I also feel at this moment in time, that my alopecia has a lot to answer for, but that changes depending on how my life is lol !

Its just nice to chat to people on the net, who understands and have the same feelings.
Do you have alopecia?

Hi, I’m trying to arrange a get together this coming Saturday 23rd May. Can you meet up? When I find out who can make it I’ll arrange a mid way meeting place. I’m from Exeter – please let me know which town you coming from. I can’t wait to (at long last) meet others in the flesh who have alopecia. Margaret xx

Hi Gill,
Trying to arrange a meet up in the exeter area or dorset. Where exactly to do live. I'm in Woodbury, between Exeter and Exmouth. Thinking of meeting up with Jude from Dorset one evening. Would be great if you could join us too. My mobile number is 07734102776. Feel free to give me a bell! Maybe we won't feel alone with alopecia for much longer.

Hey Gill,
I love wearing my wigs - I have 3 and I used different ones for different occasions! I have a short light brown bob for work, very easy to look after and it looks smart. I then have an old long blonde one which I have had for about a year and I wear that on the weekend for doing stuff like heading to the pub for drinks or going out for a walk etc. I then have a brand new long blonde one which I wear to go out for dinner and to 'events'. I love it the most, it is so lush!!
When I am on holiday though I just wear scarves all day and then if I am going out to a nice restaurant I will wear my old blonde one. I find that square scarves are the best as you can then tight them quite tight and tuck the middle bit in. It is quite tricky to get them to stay on while you tie them though, especially when your head is cover in sun tan cream! Give them a go though as I think they look really nice and are great protection from the sun.
I'm bridesmaid at my sisters wedding soon, so I am looking forward to doing something fancy with my blonde hair - a few clips with diamantes and pearls!
Hope you are all good and not finding the hair too uncomfortable - you look great!

Yes I see this all the time, its such a shame... I really do feel for people. The paste is good, but sometimes can cause a little bit of scarring. I am glad that you are please with the brows now.

Hi Gill, I hope you have seen my post in the Events "UK Event" One of the reasons for the event, is like you state, you don't know anyone with alopecia, well a lot of our clients have said this, so we now have the get together in Milton Keynes. Who did the Original brows if you don't mind me asking, and who did it the second time. What was the remover they used, was it something you had to do and keep on doing?

If you don't want to say on here no problem, just mail me info@heidiworman.co.uk have a good look around the site it is very good and friendly xx Heidi xx
