Why?

Note: This is a theoretic piece of writing. Meaning the feelings were once mine....But seems they are now someone elses.

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Why?

Why is hair such a big part of society?

Isn't it just fur?

It feels silky, it feels nice to touch it right?

What about when someone loses their hair....

Is it funny to hurt them?

Is it right to ridicule them?

Or make…

The Beginnings

About 9 years ago, about 1 year after moving to Atlanta, I started noticing patches of facial hair that stopped growing. I had always grown a winter beard when I lived in New England, but that was going to be a thing of the past. No problem, I thought. I can live without facial hair. Several years went by and I started noticing dime to quarter size bald spots showing up on my head. They'd show up and go away. No big deal. Now in my late 30's, I had alway had very, very thick and full head of…

My story

Hello. My name is Justin Dawson. I am 15 years old & have had Alopecia for about 1 year and 4 months now. It all started in mid February of 2011. I was in my room texting some friends while chatting with my little brother, Brendan. You know how when you are texting, you look with your head down most of the time? Well, that's what I was doing. My brother Brendan pointed out a very small circular bald spot on the crown of my head. I looked in the mirror, but it was too inadequate to see. I…

Hair dresser with no hair

Today was the first day i didn't wear my wig at all at work. Sometimes i'm running late and its not brushed so i'll wait til i get to work to fix it and then put it on. Sometimes i'll just get way to hot and have to take it off. Today i just didn't feel like wearing it. I had a pretty dress on, pretty feather earrings, clear even skin and colorful pretty eye shadow. It was a pretty busy day at the salon i work at and only one person brought it up without me saying something first. He did it…

My first blog- what it feels like to have alopecia

hey!

I am generally a very happy person with a great outlook on life... but I at times I get really down as everyone here does.. so I wrote a bit of a poetic piece to describe the pain ..

What it is like to have alopecia

Losing your hair, losing your femininity

Losing your normality

Years of teasing and feeling like you are being stared at

Having to realise that you will always feel ‘fake’

Hiding behind your wig, fake eyelashes and crayoned…

Disappointing day @ work

During a break, someone told a manager that they noticed dog fur/hair on clothes, & it made them feel uncomfortabale (concerned about it getting everywhere). Maybe I'm being self-conscious, but I'm wondering if it's really the baldness that bothered them. I mean, why would they not tell me but tell a manager? I haven't bewn wearing a hat/wig/scarf or anything lately because I haven't felt liek I needed to.
