Just looking through the photos I notice several people showing their alopecia began at the back of the head above the neck. This was the case for me and now for my daughter who has it. Is this the…Continue

Hi Guys, I have alopecia areata, I shave my hair with clippers to take control and more comfort wearing a wig. If I was bald I would go out uncovered, however, with very dark thick hair where it…Continue

I'm with you on that Deb. Having been through loss, growth, loss growth pattern I get fed up with people saying: 1) Ooh your hair's grown back, isn't that a relief. I knew it would cos I know someone who it happened to and they were…

Hi Sam, I'm not from the UK - I'm actually from Canada - but I'm seventeen now, and have had Alopecia for about 7 or 6 years, so I definitely understand what your daughter is going through. I know I can't be of much direct help…

UK Teenagers/Parents with Alopecia

Hi GuysI have Alopecia Areata and my daughter was diagnosed with it 8 months ago. She is 15 and is finding it very difficult to accept, crying whenever a new bald patch appears and worrying about the future. She has 6 weekly injections which has led to regrowth in one area, still waiting on the others to grow back. I believe it would help if she could meet other teenagers/young people who are going through the same to talk to. Would anyone in the UK be interested in meeting up somewhere in the…See More

Hi Mary, I read this, then went away and couldn't stop thinking about it. I know you're a trailblazer for alopecia and I real feel for you having had this experience. Sam

Great attitude Sam!

Bring it on!

Hair fell out, shaved rest off. Started to grow, now falling out again. People say "oh no what a shame" but seriously, I'm not bothered. I have accepted my hair will grow, fall out etc probably forever and that's ok. I will keep it short when it does grow and not worry about bald patches showing. If I have to shave again thats fine - I can stay in bed longer in the morning cos it takes less time to get ready! I control my life not alopecia. Bring it on!!!

How bizarre, when I first got alopecia two of my back teeth cracked and split. I remember feeling that I was falling apart. Teeth stopped falling apart but hair carried on falling out. Interesting for sure.

I'm not that old!

So,taking into account Thea's baby steps programme(trademark?) I took my daughters shopping with no wig or scarf! A little girl saw me and said "Look Mum it's Jade Goody's Mum". For those that don't know Jade was a British Z list celebrity who died last year of cancer and lost all her hair from treatment. Now I don't mind the bald reference but I am NOT old enough to be her mum!!!!!!! The little girl must have forgotten her glasses that day? :)

Anniversary - gonna do it!

It's the year anniversary of my accident that started the alopecia. Empowered by everyone's comments I am going for lunch with no head covering. Will let you know how I get on. At the very least I should get extra portions cos they feel sorry for me!!!!!!!

Maybe cruel but very very funny!

I work in a secondary school and wear 3 wigs and headscarves according to my mood. Some year 7's stopped me and asked if I had a twin who worked at the school as there is someone who looks like me but with different hair. I laughed and said I wear wigs. They wouldn't believe it and a particularly cheeky one said prove it then, take it off. So I did! Their faces were a picture, chin's hitting the floor doesn't cover it. I said was that ok and they said yes miss and sheepishly walked off. It was… Continue

So hello to you. I really wanted to be in touch. I live in woodbury,exeter and often pop down to Torquay as we have a boat down there. I met up with 2 new alopecia sufferers last week. We had a fab time just chatting and knowing what we were saying was really being heard - such a relief! I do believe noone understands what we feel and how we cope on a dily bases. It is so important to be with each other and chat like this.
