- About Me:
- I am married with a son. I had one alopecia spot when I was 12 and did not have it again until I was 25. Even at that point it was just a spot here and there that would regrow on its own. About a year ago at age 35, my alopecia flared up and I lost about 60% of my hair. I am wearing a wig and experiencing some regrowth. It's something I am still trying to feel comfortable with. It's hard to believe when I look back at photos that a year ago I had a very full thick head of hair and now it's almost all gone.

- Hi Jen,
I know how hard it can be. I have had alopecia for about 30 years. After I became the spokesperson for the National Alopecia Areata Foundation, a lot of women were needing my help and support, so I wrote a book called, "If Your Hair Falls Out, Keep Dancing!" It might make you feel better. Check it out on my page -- and let me know how else I can help.
