I've always had Alopecia but I've had a shaved head since 1998. Surprisingly enough, I noticed after each time I shaved my head, less hair would regrow. I wonder if anyone else has experienced this. I no longer have any hair on my head (I don't mind that) at least I save on haircuts :)
I've just recently gone back to University in an attempt to become an even bigger nerd! I was fortunate enough to receive an excellent scholarship for a PhD coarse in Materials Engineering.
I really enjoy salsa dancing except when sweat from my head flows into my eyelash-free eye :)
Do you have alopecia?
Alopecia totalis
Are you age 18 or older?
Yes - I am 18 or older
Studies/Work
The last 2 years of my life have been, on average, more stressful than usual. This is due to my PhD studies. However, I have had more regrowth in these last 2 years than I have had over that last 9 years before I started the Phd. What does this say about stress and its relation to hair loss?

Thanks Serge! Live long and prosper. Not that I'm a Trekkie but my boyfriend went as Anakin Skywalker to an outerspace party - it was the easiest outfit for me to do!! Mxx
