<p>Hi LGBT Alopcian Friends:</p>
<p>Does anyone have experience singing in a lgbt chorus, while wearing a head scarf or bandana? I am wondering if I would fit into the local chorus. If I joined the chorus, I would have to make sure that they would allow me to wear my head coverings that were designed for women with alopecia. If there were a skit involving taking off hats or changing hats, I would to have to be sure to stay far away and sing in the background.</p>

<p>Hi LGBT Alopcian Friends:</p>
<p>Does anyone have experience singing in a lgbt chorus, while wearing a head scarf or bandana? I am wondering if I would fit into the local chorus. If I joined the chorus, I would have to make sure that they would allow me to wear my head coverings that were designed for women with alopecia. If there were a skit involving taking off hats or changing hats, I would to have to be sure to stay far away and sing in the background.</p>
<p>Right now, I sing in my congregation's choir and that is a positive, affirming experience. The dress code is solid color on top and black slacks or skirt. When I asked the choir director if the definition of "top" could me amended to include a solid colored head scarf, he said that would be fine. So far, everyone in the congregation choir has been warm and welcoming towards me, although I would like to branch out and occasionally sing with the local lgbt chorus.</p>
<p>Any singers out there?</p>
<p>Brandy</p> What about jobs?tag:alopeciaworld.com,2011-06-23:2022678:Topic:6888842011-06-23T17:34:53.649ZLuc30https://alopeciaworld.com/profile/Luc30
I'm not sure what form of alopecia I have, but I've been thinning on top of my crown for a while now - and it has been pretty devastating. I'm also a female, butch, overweight (I'm working on it) and now ...thinning in the wrong areas (I wish I was losing weight! haha). How are people dealing with jobs while being gay, and dealing with alopecia at the same time?<br />
<br />
More and more I'm thinking of focusing my career toward more freelance opportunities - that way I can be me at whatever stage.<br />
