E&C Mommy replied to stacey's discussion Children with alopecia"I'm not sure what is going to happen with my 2 1/2 year old's AA (right now it is one small, barely noticeable spot), but I do agree that it is important to always be upfront. Obviously, my little guy isn't affected right now and…"

Emily Horsley replied to stacey's discussion Children with alopecia"I had alopecia as a child, always a few coin sized patches, I was 21 when I lost all my head hair. The whole experience of Doctors and experimental treatments were horrible and never worked anyway. I wished my mum's time had been spent helping…"
Storm_Uchiha replied to stacey's discussion Children with alopecia"The thing is that's all you can really do...Be there for her, make her as strong as she can.
And I had long curly hair myself...I'm not sure if it will get worse but if it is Alopecia Areata....It's unpredictable."

I have stopped the steroids and i know just do the herbal tratments. I have come to accept it much better now and whatever will be will be. My daughter is…"
Melly_Matrix replied to stacey's discussion Children with alopecia"I lost my hair at 4 and honestly you sound a lot like my mother who tried her best to prevent me from losing all my hair and did whatever she could to get it back.

Janice replied to stacey's discussion Children with alopecia"My daughter has 95% of her hair. She has long curly hair. To look at her(my profile pic is Jenna) you would never know she had it!!

Hi,
I have had aa since I was 8 and I am now 21. I have been doing the injections since I was about 13 and they help. I have a really good dermatologist in Manhattan if you want the name but she is expensive.
