So I'm at work and a haircut walks through the door. It's my turn and I go up front to greet them and take down there name and the women says to me, "Do you do little boys haircuts." I say back, "Yes, what's his name." So that I can write it down. She looks me right in the face and says, "I will wait for the next stylist. I think you might scare him." My manager went into protection mode to stand up for me. She asked, "What about her do you think he would be scared of?Her bald head?" The…

Today I signed up for a gym membership and the only reason Im saying anything about it is because something funny happened. I was changing directions of the machine to do the other side of my body and this guy comes running over to help me. I had it under control and he said to me "How long have you been fighting the good fight." It took me a couple of seconds to figure out he thought I had Cancer. I responded but saying I don't have Cancer it's Alopecia and it fell out about a year and a…

Changes are part of life. Instead of fighting it, embrace it. Sometimes, it can be the best thing that ever happened. Just breathe, and keep moving forward.

Today at work it was my turn next for a haircut. So i walked up to the desk and Lindsey said, "OK mam your going to be with Sheena today." Before i could say, "ok come on back." The women looked at Lindsey and said," i would rather her not. in a very rude and disgusted tone." I have never cut this women's hair before or met her for that matter. I honestly think she didn't want me cutting her hair

because I'm bald. Like she was afraid she was going to catch it or something. The thing…

I always had brown hair but I always wished I was a red head. I colored it bright red. A year ago i shaved what little hair I had left. The patches got smaller and smaller and it quit growing. The last couple of months my hair has been growing back very slowly I am getting more and more. Its really sparse and has no color to any of it. Any color hair would be so great. I will take gray hair over no hair any day.

This ignorant jerk that comes in to get his haircut just asked on of the girls I work with why I shaved my head and she said I didnt and he said oh what does she have cancer and she responded no she has alopecia and it just fell out and he said sounds like cancer to me. When he left she told us what he had said and the other girls I work with almost got as pissed as I did like if I did have cancer that would be really rude and since I don't makes it even more rude what the hell is wrong with… Continue

i think it just found the most comfortable eyelashes. I cant even feel them. They're Ardell Professional Self-Adhesive #110S from Sally's Beauty Supply. I have never used the self-adhesive eyelashes so i'm not sure how long they will last. We will see how long the self adhesive stays sticky.

Today was the first day i didn't wear my wig at all at work. Sometimes i'm running late and its not brushed so i'll wait til i get to work to fix it and then put it on. Sometimes i'll just get way to hot and have to take it off. Today i just didn't feel like wearing it. I had a pretty dress on, pretty feather earrings, clear even skin and colorful pretty eye shadow. It was a pretty busy day at the salon i work at and only one person brought it up without me saying something first. He did it…

A couple of days ago a friend from elementry school messaged me on facebook, hadnt talked to him in years. While we were talking he asked about my lack of hair. When i told him what my situation was he said," Wow really you always had such beautiful hair, i had no idea." makes me cry to think about it sometimes. I really miss my beautiful long hair and now that my eyebrows are gone and my eyelashes are going, it makes me really thankful that i didnt loose all my hair when i was in high…
