Hi Linda - Thanks for the add and hope youre having a great day :)

Wow - your wig looks great! Very natural. I just got a new wig but am not looking forward to my second summer in a wig. Take care. 

You have done more than me. My mom, sister and I showed my son one time 5 or so years ago. To date I have never shown my husband or anyone else. I have a couple of friends who know but have never seen my bald head. I have always worn something on my head even in the house. My husband knows but has never seen. He compliments me on my looks all the time before I lost all my hair and still to date. He is very supportive when it comes to my alopecia and so is my sister and mom. It is very nice speaking to you KIT. I'm in Illinois and it has been in the 30's, 40's and 50's lately in regards to temperature. I am jealous of your weather. Is the freedom wig like a lace wig or what?

Hello Linda, I read your story and it was interesting. I have had alopecia on and off my entire adulthood and it started at age 12. I have dated, been engaged and married. I was so lucky about how I felt about it. It has gotten to me at times when I was younger and then when I lost all of my hair at age 37 approx after a surgery and I have worn wigs, and full lace wigs since. I just think my different looks at being a woman with the versitility of change. I try to stay positive and I want to look on the outside as good as I feel in the inside. I think you should date, you are an attractive woman and I really don't think there would be a problem attracting men. I would love to hear more about your freedom wig. Drop me a note when you have time. Bye for now.

Just stop by to say "Hey!!!!!!!" Hope you're well. Take care.

You are such a beautiful lady. I can related. I tried the "system" and just did not want to keep paying the huge monthly fees. . .still did not like the glue they put on your head--and they had the shave some of the hair I had.

I had beautiful hair growing up, but still had the balding at the temples. I figured it was hereditary and prayed prayed prayed that the hair would grow. It seemed like a cruel joke that God would play on us. So now, I wear wigs--yes, sometimes I want to throw it across the room, but I like the fact that I can take it off when I get home and rub my scalp or wash the hair that I have. God bless you for being so courageous.

As far as dating, I'm sure you tell some stories. When the right man comes along, you will know when it is safe to share this information. We live in a superficial society that still thinks that hair/long hair is the only beauty symbol out there. Hang in there and thank you.

Hey Linda - How are you? Hope you had a good Thanksgiving, can't believe Christmas is around the corner. Hope you are well. Take care.

you are welcome would love to et to know you better

I purchased mine from a salon as well for $500 and in one month, it's tangling!! Ugh! I'm still looking into other options. You'll have to tell me how the freedom wig works out.

Hi Linda,
I'm new here and can totally relate to your AA story. I just bought my first lace wig and would love to talk to you about where you buy yours, hair care etc. Your pics look fabulous!!

Linda I'm sort of new to this, so forgive me. What is hair system and how do I get one? Your hair looks so natural and pretty.

Hi Linda, I love your pictures. I also enjoy traveling, I'm trying not to let my hair issues stop me from it. You know long plane rides and being worried my hair is in the right place when we land so no one sees my thinning. I'm new to the site and to wearing wigs. I have bought 3 of them and don't wear them. I just hate the questions when I do. Thanks for showing us we can still travel and look beautiful doing it.

Thank u for adding me:) I hope that you are having a great week!

Nice profile picture.

You are doing just what I do -- tell them when things seem to merit it. For example, if the guy is getting close and wants to put his hand on your neck -- if he wants to kiss you he will probably be touching your hair. So that's when I tell him. I always tell before someone asks. Usually they are surprised and would have never guessed.

Sure! What is it that is most difficult? When to tell a guy? How to tell him?
I have a whole chapter on this stuff in my book, did a lot of talking to other women on how they handled this, too.
