- About Me:
- I am 26 years old and just recently moved to Virginia. I am originally from New York and I am already loving the warmer climate. I have been suffering with thinning hair since 2010, which was when I started birth control to regulate my menstrual cycle. I quickly stopped taking the pill the moment I noticed a difference in my hair but I do wonder if it had a lasting effect on me. I have always suffered from terrible periods(extremely abnormal and heavy) and I know that hormones have a role to play in this. So I don't even know if my thinning hair is a medical issue. I don't have health insurance, but I was able to schedule an appointment at the local clinic, and I'm hoping to get some answers.
I am at the point where I know I need to do something if I want to get the most out of life. There are things that I limit myself in doing because of my insecurity from my thin hair. I conceal thinning areas with "fillers" but I'm not content with that. I am tired of touching my head and feeling the warmth of my scalp, getting brown fill in power on my hands, being constantly worried about the weather, wondering if people are looking at my hair, not going swimming, and just simply being carefree. So with all of that said, I am at a crossroad of decisions in my life. I am weighing the consequences of shaving all of my hair off and getting a wig, or taking the other route and getting an integrated hair system. I want to be me and not be so self conscious. This is a new endeavor for me and I know I'm not alone.

So many options!

So I've been doing some research on different hair units (trying to decide what would be best for me). I still have my own hair but I am tired of it looking thin and not feeling comfortable going swimming or even sitting in the sun without thinking about my scalp showing through. I don't want to take Rogaine and save my existing hair by putting foreign chemicals in my body. Anyhow, these are the options I have discovered and I'm wondering if anyone out there can shed some light on them…
