well i thought i had wrote a blog last night but it didnt seem to come up. but it was just to express how i feel just now, ive been doing ok and have some colour change in my regrowth which is brill but still early days so will need to see what going to happen, anyway i have decided to move stores for my work which im now working with new people as well, only 3 people know about my alopecia who i worked with before and are also moving. i suppose im just very worried about how to deal with my alopecia... im not sure whether to tell me or not my old work place everyone knew as it was obvious as my hair fell out within 2wks and i couldnt hide it. i dont really like talking about it as i feel embarrassed and hate people thinking of me being bald, i know this is bad but i dont like it and i dont even go bald at home now either,, maybe im just tryin to ignore it and not accept that i have alopecia im not sure but when situations like this happen i never know what to do.
i get alot of people saying that my hair is gorgeous and never know whether to say its not real. got i hate this alopecia thing.. thanks for reading anyways. :)

Hiya Lynne - I think maybe you're worrying too much. Out there in the Big Wide World (sorta like the World Wide Web, but more interesting), nobody actually gives a damn about other peeps' hair, or lack of. But what they DO pick up on is nervousness or insecurity - so hold your head up (an old song by Argent!), walk tall (an even older one by Val Doonican!), and don't worry, be happy (can't remember who did that one, but it was on a TV ad for chocolate at one time) - if you try and feel a bit good about yourself, others will, too.
And if you want some proof that life's not all bad? Well, you're in Scotland, and how cool's that? ;)

I have hardened myself to it by wearing the most fabulous wig I can find in the shop each birthday. Even if I totally change my look, at least I go to work looking decent, and I brush off (!) any comments or questions that try to get info out of me. When they say, "Love that color! Where do you get your hair done?" I just say "Thanks," in Sacramento, or if I am feeling like shocking someone, "Wig Galleria."

Synthetic: $90-$280, with 10% alopecia discount. Sure beats that human hair price tag.
