- Hey guys! I'm Jess. I'm 23 and have been living with AU for a year.
I first lost my hair two years ago, but mainly on my scalp. It grew back completely within 4 months.
This time around, I lost all the hair on my body and haven't had any sign of regrowth until 6 months in where I began growing peach fuzz on my face. Today, a year in, I am beginning to see some white eyelashes on my right eye. I am trying not to get my hopes up, but it is pretty damn exciting!
I have my good days and my not so good days, but AU has really taught me to see and live life differently. Today I am surrounded by people that love me for who I am and not for the length of my eyelashes, and am doing what I love and not what is expected of me.
I am here to learn about your experiences and to get a little more info on how to make life a tad easier with makeup tips, wigs, and ways to dig myself out of the "why me" blues. I look forward to getting to know all of you a little better!

Does anyone else have this?

I'm new to this site but sadly not new to the hair loss. I have so many people telling me I have alopecia and then others saying I don't.. I don't know what to think anymore.
The first time I lost my hair, it grew back like weeds within 3 months. The second time I lost my hair was 11 months after the first time I lost it, and this time around I'm losing my eyebrows and eyelashes too. I don't know if I should be hopeful that it will magically grow back again in a month or to believe… Continue
