    Hi Kathy,
    Sorry it took so long to get back to you. I have been off line since 12/12/08 because we were moving across country to New Mexico. I'm finally settled in and back online...
    Ok, you asked about my hair loss story, so here is a link to it:
    I won't go into a super long story of my hairloss journey because quite frankly, these last five years suffering from hair loss has seemed like an eternity and I fear that if I get started talking about my follicle follies, I won't be able to stop. I am 39 years old and I am an Alopecian. My hair started falling out five

    I do have hair, but honestly it looks terrible when I grow it in. My hair is far thinner now, and the texture of the hair has changed from soft and silky to course and gross! I can't do anything with it when it grows in and I don't like seeing my scalp through my hair. I have considered growing it back, but I know that it will cause me more heart ache to do that. It is easier for me to deal with a bald head then to obsess over trying to get my hair to look full or "normal." My type of hair loss is a very slow and progressive type. I can have a flare up and it will take more of my hair, or it can go into a remission for a year or more. It's usually during those times that I get tempted to grow it back. I used to wear a full lace wig and loved it. I am not sure if you have been over to The Womens Hair Loss Project Network, but I do have a photo album there with my wig. There are a few ladies there that can help in finding a good solution for your hair needs also.
    Here is a link to my page at the Network...if you aren't a member, you can sign up and join one of the greatest communities of women I have ever been a part of!
    Welcome to The Women's Hair Loss Project Network! A community for women with hair loss. Here you will be able to create a profile, adding only the information you want to share. You can write your thoughts in your own blog, create photo albums, upload videos, add friends to your network and leave comments on other women's profiles. I hope the Network along with the Women's Hair Loss Project Blog lets women know they are not alone.
Working...
