Sharon Stokes replied to Stephanie's discussion Fingernails in the group Alopecia Universalis"Hi! I lost my hair at 45 but always had ridges in my nails. My dad - who had a beautiful head of hair until the day he died at 80 - also had deep ridges on his nails. Not sure if it related to alopecia. I use Sally Hansen Hard as Gel and no ridges…"

Sharon Stokes commented on Alopecia World's group Alopecia Totalis"Hi! I just joined. I thought I had universalis as well, but I am getting arm and leg (darn - now I may need to shave!) hair. I am bald, no eyebrows or eyelashes. I do wear wigs, but am prepping to go outside with a scarf. Maybe soon."

Sharon Stokes left a comment for Tracy and Amanda"Hi, Tracy! I am doing well. Your daughter is quite adorable! I am a teacher and had a HS student with AA a few years ago. She seemed to have no problem with it - she had quite an assortment of wigs (blue, fuschia, etc.) and also came to school bald…"
Wendy left a comment for Sharon Stokes"Yes. In Guelph, ON, Canada there is an alopecia weekend I believe but I have not been able to attend as I am about 6 hours away. There is no such gathering in Ottawa that I am aware of or I would attend to check it out.
Sorry to hear that you missed…"
Sharon Stokes replied to Sally's discussion work friends and the awkward truth"I agree with a lot of the great advice you have gotten here.
What worked for me was to take control of the situation. Once I felt that some colleagues were looking at me kinda funny, I took the bull by the horns and told people on MY terms. I am by…"
Sharon Stokes replied to Bethany Vaughn's discussion Depressed about it."Bethany-
I don't think anyone of us can tell you what to do about your living situation. Do you have a trusted relative (aunt, older cousin, etc.) you can discuss this with? Perhaps a teacher or counselor at school?
I do want to address your…"
Sharon Stokes left a comment for Wendy"Unfortunately, I was only able to go to the Alpocia Palooza on Friday afternoon. I saw only one vendor - Debbie from Fuller Hair. Even Debbie seemed surprised to see me, an adult, at this event for children. The make-up events were scheduled for…"
