I don’t have Alopecia, anxiety or depression. I haven’t had suicidal thoughts roam the sacred space of my mind, nor have I been bullied for my appearance. I am not familiar with the feeling of a panic attack or crippling social anxiety and, I have never felt so deeply overcome with mental pain that I couldn’t breathe. But - I was there for Leon through all of the above and this absolutely devastated me.
When you love someone, everything becomes a simultaneous…

Hi everyone,
I found out three months ago that I have female pattern hair loss. My hair had been disintegrating for over a year but I didn't know what was causing it. I'm in my mid twenties and have a brother a year younger who's losing his hair too. I knew my dad went bald at a young age, but never in a million years would have guessed I could inherit the hair loss as a girl.
My dermatologist has me taking 200mg spironolactone and using the 5% minoxidil foam. I'm still…

Hi fellow alopecia and hairloss knowers
I am so happy to be who I am.
This year I started my university days at Stellenbosch University in South Africa, studying my passion. At this time I was still uncomfortable to be seen without my wig (I have Alopecia Universalis)- with only close friends and family having ever seen me with my untanned head.
I wanted to be brave, to shake off the cloak that societal beauty standards insisted on wrapping around my adolescent body, but…

Early on when I was first impacted by Alopecia and I wanted to explain it to the few people I told. I would say that I had an auto-immune disease called Alopecia.
One day someone stopped be as I verbalized this and told me not to ever profess/claim a disease with my mouth or in my mental thoughts.
His position was that are words and powerful, almost as powerful as our thoughts. And that we should all be particular of the language we use to edify our lives.
I…

I have been battling alopecia areata since 2013. Through trial and error of many products and treatments I have finally found something that works and the results are unreal! That bad patch was the size of a dime in 9/2014 and grew to tennis ball size by 1/2015. Check out my page to see the before photos! These results were through the help of my dermatologist and a company with advanced holistic treatments that specializes in alopecia.
NOW...Photo taken 8/2015. My patch that seemed…

I guess I do get insecure about my alopecia. The stares that come with the bald patches. Instead of asking, people just stare. I wish they would just ask.
I don't mind sharing what I look like, patches and all. But with people I don't know; it can be a little intimidating. I rather wear my hat, wig, or scarf.
I took a picture of my head to see how it was and hikers.

Hi all, We are looking for a friend with alopecia for our daughter who is six years old and going into first grade. We live in Plantation, FL and have only met a few people with alopecia. I want my daughter to have a friend she can share her strength and weaknesses with, a child that will understand and hopefully be friends with for life. We all know how difficult it is to have alopecia and in our daughters case, Universalis. I try to be everything for her but I know she needs someone her…

As a kid whenever I saw a fountain or a wishing spiral, I always asked my mom for a penny or a dime to toss in. When she gave one to me I would hold the coin, close my eyes and wish as hard as I could that I would grow hair. Every single birthday wish, fountain wish and falling star wish, was the same wish since I could remember. I didn’t wish for toys or candy or anything a normal kid would want. I think back to that little girl and I find my self smiling at how silly I was to want…

Good afternoon. My name is Lori, and I have been losing hair for close to 5 years. It started in 2010 as a tiny patch above my ear - that my hair dresser saw. Then that got bigger, and the same thing happened on the other side (above ear). I am still to this day, able to "hide" it, as I have a bob haircut, and unless the wind blows, or my hair is wet - you cannot see it. Recently, I went to my derm, and asked if she thought it would stop. She said I had some follicular erythema along the…
