So I finally made the decision to get a wig. After a year and a half of alopecia areata out breaks, resulting in a patch that looks as though it might never regrow. I decided to invest in a nice wig thanks to the help of my grandma and boyfriend. It was a big decision:
1. During the summer it is really hot in DC and I did not want…

I am 42 years old. Since last October I have been gluten free. I have decided to also try to go organic and no fast foods, no artificial this or that (for the most part). I have also decided to make a choice to just eat healthy. As a side effect or perhaps result of my efforts and food choices...my hair has started to grow everywhere. Its been a month since i had also started the Probiotics in my diet. I noticed fine little hairs all over my head and in my eyebrows, about 1/8" long. My…

I have my Dr appt and hubby says steroid cream may help too, and I said then I'm cutting off all of my hair (so I can see all of the spots. He proceeds to say I will look "stupid." Well he's a dork and there's no way I can get lotion through my hair now. Maybe a really short cut and slowly go shorter. He does need a lesson in empathy though.

I'm wondering... how long does it take to go from Areata to Universalis?
The bald spots on my head keep growing and now I've discovered small ones under my armpits and on my eyebrows. It also feels like my eyelashes are thinning out.
Any experiences/stories you want to share? Isn't it a bit unusual to skip the Totalis?
Greetz from Germany!

Two years ago, March, 2011 to be exact, I incurred my first bald spot. 5 months later I was completely bald. I had never heard of Alopecia…now Alopecia was controlling my emotions, actions and my entire life. I did not want to venture out in public with my condition and taking pictures was a no-no. And when I did leave my home, I did so in complete fear of people staring at me and whispering under their breath about me. I tried to smile but I didn’t mean it… I was too heartbroken. I was…

I am so beyond sitting back and watching my life go by. I am so beyond not achieving my goals and not living my dreams. It is time to make a change, time to give birth to a difference. A different way of living. Living a more healthy life, a balanced life. We all have challenges that we feel are boulders in our path but these challenges are opportunities to build strength. It is time to pick up the boulder, walk around the boulder or climb over the boulder. It is time to make a difference in…

International Alopecia Day ® is – Saturday, August 3, 2013! Be a part of this year’s YouTube video slide show of International Alopecia Day around the world!
International Alopecia Day began several years ago. My idea was for there to be a day when people with Alopecia Areata could celebrate who we are, and perhaps try going out in public bald for the first time in the company of others with Alopecia. The more cities and countries we have participating each year, the more IAD will…
