Nancy replied to Kristina Helton's discussion New"Robbin, where did you find this great head gripping wig??"
Nancy replied to Kristina Helton's discussion New"Hi Kristina,
I'm 26 and have went from AA to AU in less than a year! And often time I would always have a patch or two that would grow back on their own so when ALL my hair fell out I freaked out, i mean REALLY freaked out especially when I…"
robbin stein replied to Kristina Helton's discussion New"Hi there!
I got Alopecia after the birth of my first child and I too went to many dermatologists who didnt say for sure whether it would come back or not. Mine has come and go many times. But I have to say - it never gets easy when it comes out…"
Terri replied to Kristina Helton's discussion New"HI Judy....why should you give up your "sporty" ways. I have AU and for years I let it determine what I could and could not do. I gave up so much that I love to do, including swimming. As a child I use to swim constantly but when the…"
Judy replied to Kristina Helton's discussion New"Hi Kristina -- I got AA 7 years ago -- it took 5 years for all my hair to fall out --and some of it has grown back, but only in spots.

Karen Smith replied to Kristina Helton's discussion New"My daughter has had AU for 1 1/2 years and she is having regrowth right now. It is coming in over about 30% of head and eyelashes and brows are starting. There is more hair everytime I look. She took Sulfasalazine for 6 months which may have started…"
Ann Gee replied to Kristina Helton's discussion New"Am new to au as well although I have experienced aa in the past off and on. I agree with Pat- wearing a wig is not vain. I too treat it as an accessory. I wouldn't go to a business meeting in bare feet! Wearing a wig allows me to be who I am as…"
Petra replied to Kristina Helton's discussion New"Welcome Kristina, For some of us it takes quite a long time to get used to being bald while others adjust much more quickly - like anything else in life. It took me a long time - Years. I have had Alopecia since I was 18, lost all my hair for about…"

- Hi krissi. I am the mother of a 16 yo girl with au x 18 mo as well. Although i dont have alopecia myself,I have seen first hand how devastating this condition is to one's psyche. One approach is to take one day at a time and have No expectations. U will save yourself disappointment. U r a beautiful !! Woman with or w/o hair. There r many members on here with partial to complete regrowth as u can read about on here. Live your life. Hold your head high.u r not defined by hair.connect with other members. It will help and u will start to feel better. Really :) hang in there and take care of yourself.
