I'm a guy, and Uh, I just randomly came across this video and I'm still not too sure how I got hear (I was watching videos for a new pair of kicks). But I feel ya, I watched and can't even imagine the fear a female has to go through dealing with this. It might feel like the end of the world, but it's not, stay strong.

Honestly I teared up a little because you are so much in a lot of pain. I could totally understand what it feels like to have something happen to you that you can't control. I started getting grey hair at 13 and I'm 19 now and getting a bunch right at the front of my hair. I've always lived my natural dark hair and I've never even wanted to dye it to a different colour and now it's turning grey:( I love how strong you are, it really is inspiring. True beauty does come from within, and we do need to appreciate life for what it is besides looking good. Anyways I hope your condition stays mild, you are truly beautiful, keep strong

But honestly it doesn’t bother me anymore. It’s become something that I’ve grown used to and I’ve learn to live with. I was most afraid it would affect my social/love life, but it hasn’t been an issue. Men don’t care about my hairline, that was just an assumption I made on myself. ☺️👍 thanks for asking, I had completely forgotten about my previous comment.

I totally understand how you are feeling. I am going through sort of the same thing but it's ALL of my hair. It's so thin, I am balding. I commend you on opening up about this and sharing it. Means a lot to us who are going through the same or similar situation. It's a horrible experience nobody should ever have to go through. Let me say you are stunningly beautiful no matter what. I started using rogaine for my severe hair loss and it's helped me so much! Sending love to you! xo

I realize you posted this video five years ago , but I am so glad to have found it. I am going through alopecia for the second time and it helps to watch videos of those who are going through it

I would really like to have an update on your situation. I went through a really stressful move. The move was so stressful I actually got pneumonia that reoccurred throughout a whole year. I thought that was the worst but now I'm having this problem. It started small and I didn't think anything of it but now I have two large spots and it is just so stressful. I'm like you, I have always loved my hair so this is really stressful. I'm really thankful for your honesty. It really helps me not feel so alone.

I’m literally so happy right now. I just scrolled through the comments and there’s sooooo many other people that have it. I’ve never meet someone that’s had it before and I always felt alone. But seeing the people who deal with it to, I now feel better. Because I know I’m not alone. I’m so blessed to have found this video

I just started noticing hair loss on myself. And you’re right I can’t stress much about it. Hope you’re doing better

Folisin is a product for hair loss in men. To create the recipe of the food supplement, as many as 13 ingredients were used that inhibit baldness, support hair growth, and have a positive effect on the condition of the scalp, creating the perfect environment for new hair growth. Importantly, all the ingredients used to create the tablets are safe for the body and do not cause side effects. for more--- nplink.net/ykcjp1roinformation check out here ---

I definitely understand, too well! I'm going through that myself! I've been so terribly depressed about losing my hair. My heart goes out to you! I'll pray for you.

Thank you. I can not thank you enough for making this video. I’m 15 years old and I’ve been dealing with it for the past 3 years now. I have gotten the shorts only about 3 times because the dates kept getting pushed back. I’ve looked it up too and regretted it because it is very scary. Mines worse than yours. The most spots I had at once was 8. They where all about the size of a dime. Or a little bigger than a quarter. I haven’t seen a video of someone who wasn’t completely bald, or there sports where barley noticeable. And then I found your video. And it made my day. Know that there’s someone out there like me. I’m in high school. And having this condition is the worst. They don’t even know what caused mine. Right now I do have progress and only have 5 spots. And they are definitely getting better. I have an appointment this week. So once again. Thank you for this video. It made me feel so much better. Stay strong 💗

Thank you for sharing your story. It is one of the best things we can do to create more awareness and support the community.

Honey I'm sorry but your beautiful inside. It's hard not to stress darlin. Your amazing I love you!

hey just wanted to say this video is so relatable. i recently was diagnosed with alopecia areata and it’s been a struggle to stay positive and not stress. this video helped tho as well as the comments. I’m definitely going to try the products mentioned from y’all ❤️

I seriously send all my strength to anyone suffering from hair loss i have aga n lichen planopilaris and thankfully wigs and toppers give me some confidence back. You are beautiful

I can completely relate to this! I've had alopecia for some years now and i'm 22 as well and for me it's definitely triggered by stress and right now it's been the worst it's ever been cause i feel like at least 1/3 of my hair has fallen and it's really scary to think about that and i generally avoid the internet. I just know that if i start dealing with my stress better, it will be better. I mean apart from treatments and medication because personally i've found that it's mostly psychological for me, at least that's what causes my hair loss. In any case I really hope it's getting better and i'm sure it'll all grow back! :)

I don’t have alopecia so I haven’t been getting any bald patches or anything like that but lately I’ve been getting significant hair fall/hair thinning! It really is terrible so I can’t imagine how you are feeling also. I think mine is a combination of stress and then imbalanced hormones from my endometriosis/birth control/thyroid surgery. I always just remind myself it’s just hair but it definitely is super tough. Thanks for sharing your story! I had no idea you were going through this. Miss you!❤️

I'm going through it, too. I've been losing hair all over my head for about 3 years now. I have bald spots in the same area you mentioned. My eyebrows seem to be thinning now as well. I try not to stress & freak out but it's so HARD. My hair was my thing, too. It was so THICK & long. I used to get so many compliments & I considered it one of my best features. I don't talk about it to people outside my family & close friends so I applaud you. I hate when people say "you're hair doesn't make you" or "you're still beautiful." I get they're trying to be nice but it doesn't help me at all. I completely understand what you're going through. You're not alone. I hope we can all figure this out. I wouldn't wish this on anyone.

I developed Alopecia after spending some time in a coma in intensive care suffering from septic shock. It was a month or so after that I noticed a large rounded bald spot on the back of my head. I then realised how much hair I was loosing each day. Everyone would know where I’d been because wherever I was there would be hair left behind 😓 I’m currently taking Biotin capsules, I hope I will be able to start steroid in the near future. Just remember you are beautiful and I know thought of loosing all of your Hair is gut wrenching, but we just have to be strong and push on!! ❤️ Thank you for sharing your journey xxx

I lost it at 14 and it's much worse than you, almost the whole head. People misjudge you and they laugh or make fun of you but you should learn to love yourself the way you are. My baldness is a blessing because I only attract people that lile me for who I am. And it usually apear in perfectly healthy people.

Hi deborah my boyfriend has the same condition. He got it during middle school, around that time his house caught on fire and a lot was going on with his family so he thinks the stress from that triggered it:/ He remembered taking a shower and seeing chunks of hair fall out as he was washing his hair in 8th grade. He even tried filling out his eyebrows when his condition got more extreme in high school. I was heartbroken bc i cant imagine what he went through. Eventually he was like screw it im gonna shave my head and not worry about it. I met him like that last year and sometimes he jokes but i know he went through a lot. Hes always been the guy everyone loves to be around , his personality is infectious and hes an amazing guy. :) Anyways I just wanted to thank you for being strong enough to make this video, before i met him, I never heard of the condition before . Anyways, I hope others can gain some knowledge and understanding from this video. Thank you gorgeous and have a nice day :)

I've been losing my hair and don't know why but I've made an appointment with my doctor to find out what's going on with me and I just want to thank you for sharing and I wish you all the luck in the world and God bless you xoxo

@@pawelzabicki7785 well, first thing to understand is that Alopecia totalria, total loss of hair is an autoimmune disorder, so the very first thing should be to make the immune system as strong as possible!! Years of consuming toxic foods, use of toxic substances on the body, toxic environmental factors have ruined our bodies, abuse of the worst kind. So very sad!! So what to do? Stop eating every thing available in boxes, cans, packets, which have a dozen or more ingredients, which are all artificial flavours and chemicals one cannot even pronounce!!! NO MORE ICE CREAM, SODDAS, CAKES, DONUTS, PIZZAS, WHITE BREAD, WHITE SUGAR! Stop taking all kind of dairy, animals are given hormones and antibiotics which enter our bodies and destroy the healthy gut bacteria. Go for coconut, almond milk. Only use healthy oils like olive oil, coconut oil, avocado oil instead of hydrogenated oils. No meat also. Health starts from the gut! Go totally organic! As much fruits and vegetables as possible, free range chicken and eggs, fresh water fish, NO GRAINS! GO GLUTEN FREE, Insted take wheat buck, millet, qinoua, chia seeds, flaxseed, nuts, liters of spring water, do juicing, make green smoothies from kale, parsley, spinach. There is a medicine available which is being given to Alopecia patients. It's called TOFACITINIB, this is used for arthritis treatment but people with Alopecia have shown results, 75 % hair growth on the head, face and other body parts. Long term side effects are not known at the moment, except it may cause cancer, not 💯 %. So, in the end I'll just say this : please do your own research, many good naturopath doctors are available with their success full protocols to follow, my son and I have learned so much from them!! Like I said, it is a big challenge and change in one's life, but their is no other way out. Watch videos on you tube by people suffering for this disorder, read blogs, follow their tips and suggestions, there is always hope for the good!! Stay positive. It took a while for my son to understand that physical appearance is not the only thing that matters always, it is who you are as a person with talent and personality, loved by your family and friends. Physiological support is very important in this situation and there is absolutely no shame or harm in seeing a phycologist. There is so much more but I can't write everything here. Hope this will be of any help. Stay blessed.

You are beautiful ✨ Am also suffering from alopecia but although it affects my confidence and makes me go into depression from time to time , am staying positive and hoping it will get better✨ I had treatment once but after that i did not see any improvement so now am focusing on eating healthy and getting vitamins from food ,exercising and meditating 🌟 I pray to god that he gives every person suffering with this condition enough courage and blessings to live happily 🙏

I have alopecia areata too. Just discovered it earlier this month. It totally sucks. 😔 I so know how you feel. Worse part is, there is no cure. Hair can grow back and then poof! ... it can fall out again without warning. I'm trying to stay positive like you are. Luckily even though my patch is pretty huge, I can still cover it up with the surrounding hair. Worse case, if I develop a patch I can't cover up, I will color it yellow and draw a face on it- like an emoticon. (Maybe people will think I'm simply eccentric). You're a beautiful young woman. Keep up the positivity. Thank you so much for sharing your story with us.

After a major, emergency, life changing surgery...my hair started falling out in large clumps. I've had to buy wigs it's gotten so bad...I've cut my hair off. It's been horrible. I'm taking iron, biotin, and collagen and hoping that helps out long term...and hoping this is only temporary. Thanks for sharing, it helps others (including myself).

Hi, when you mentioned your hair has been a big part of you... I feel the same thing. I couldn't help but cry thinking about it. I have been a model following high school during my college years and have had long hair and made it into any style, cut, color I wanted and it would look amazing. Just the last few months I have been suffering from alopecia. I don't know where it is coming from and nor do I know how to fix it. I have bought wigs to cover it up but I feel like I am just covering up a part of me that I love so much, which is my hair. I sweat from the wigs, and I can't stand the clips for other hair pieces. I think the stress from it just adds on to the hair loss... I am at a loss and cry everyday. I am a nurse now and I care for people everyday... I am there to be their support, encouragement, and caregiver so the only time I don't let my emotions take over is when I am working. I am a happy, cheerful person that is optimistic at work; but, at home I am depressed. I couldn't imagine what it must feel like to have gone through this at such a young age like you have had to do. I am trying to stay strong and see a dermatologist too, but I almost feel like it'll be too costly and am so scared at the same time. I am constantly busy body and find every excuse there is to get help... No one truly understands how it feels like until they go through it. My thoughts are with you and all who suffer. Thanks for the video! Don't cry!!!!!

Hey I have to say you are one of the most bravest people I’ve ever seen because I haven’t seen anyone openly express this problem. I got this problem when I was in year 2 about 7-8 years old. But they didn’t tell me that it was alopecia they told me that it was patches because I mum had it before I was born. The doctors told me that there was no cure for it and that it was very off and on problem. But recently it got worse like SOOO much hair would now fall out like I can’t even brush or comb my hair because of the fear of seeing SOO many hairs. To top it off I also have a hormonal imbalance which also triggers the hair fall and I’m going through my yr 11 and 12 course which is a huge deal since it determines if I go to uni so it adds as added stress and the hair fall just triggers my stress levels so much like it’s too much. I’m super ashamed of this problem just as much because my sister keeps telling me like it’s my diet that’s causing hair loss or that my stress is over the top even my mum doesn’t want me buying preventing hair loss stuff which honestly hurts because I hate looking at those stupid spots and I hate complaining that I have them so yeah I honestly understand what you’re going through and I also hate when people don’t want to be around me because of this disease they think is contagious. So yeah that’s my life but I just want to thank you for opening about your alopecia because for people like me it really does give us hope ❤️

My hair loss is so intense right now so I have to wear it in a bun or ponytail. In the last 2 months I tried anything and till now nothing worked and half of my hair is already gone. But I love that you made this video and we should all just keep going and someday it will get better ( I hope)

I consider your explanations very good and carefully to help us!

You’re so beautiful . I pray both of us gets through this condition

I understand COMPLETELY. I have had alopecia going on 2 years now, and my spots have gotten really bad. The worst I think, when I first got it. I thought it was a side effect of finals stress and that it would go away but it did not, and it progressively got SUPER bad. I lost half of the hair on my scalp. Currently my spots are not too bad, I have 2 at the moment but one of them is in the same spot on my hairline as yours. My hair has always been my "thing" too, and it's very hard to deal with emotionally. I'm glad to know that I'm not alone!

Hi, I just happen to run into your channel and I want to thank you, you're brave for sharing your story (made me tear up) and staying positive is something up wanna keep doing. I was diagnosed with alopecia areata at the age of 8, my hair ended up growing back. Fast forward to age 27 my hair started falling again and I had forgotten that I was diagnosed with alopecia, so it freaked me out. I went to my dermatologist and again I was diagnosed with alopecia areata and immediately after I was given steroid shots. It has grown back but it has fallen again, I do believe it's stress that causes it, maybe even the things we put in our bodies, nobody really knows 100% for sure what exactly causes it. I've done some research on it and am currently using w loe vera gel, I still don't know if it works, but I will get back on your channel and let you know if it does. Wish you the best of luck.

Don't stress yourself hun. I have the same condition. I was diagnosed with it in 2002 it went away but it came back last year but small patches. Don't worry your hair will grow back. Stress was the main reason for me so I try to limited my stress. U will be OK hun. I know it scary but keep calm it be OK. Now my hair is super long. Also use biotin pill it work to grow your hair. Now my hair super long and I'm about to cut it cause it too long. So don't worry hun u young and you be ok

I know the feeling of loosing hair. I have PCOS and that can either make you grow a lot of facial hair or lose the hair on your head. I have lost so much hair. And im a hairstylist. Imagine doing something you love on other ppl and not be able to do what you love on yourself. Its really hard. And I've been depressed but now since i got married i feel so much better about myself bc my husband loves on me so much. But anyway..

I know how u feel cause i have alopecia too and at first I was crying when I knew and sad but later on I got used to it. Later on I was not stressing no more and just relax and my hair start growing back. Thanks for sharing ur story👏🏻

You really needn't worry too much because you've got such a beautiful face you could definitely rock it if it came to the worst. And knowing that should take away some of the anxiety (which should help prevent it from getting to that stage in the first place). FYI - the Alopecia Areata is commonly triggered by stress, as well as physical trauma (injury) and meds like antibiotics. So I do hope that once those factors are out of your system it will get better. Now that it's been triggered there is always the chance of it coming back, but - having said that: My aunt had it 20 years ago, and around the same time they discovered that her thyroid was underperforming. She has since been on meds for her thyroid and hasn't had the AA return. So there IS hope! ;) I personally have been working on the theory of whether people who rely a little too much on their hair are more likely to get AA. Maybe a nudge by the universe telling you to become comfortable without that safety blanket. I'll be posting a video on that topic soon. ;) All the best and don't let the AA take over your life!

Thank you for this comment, lovely! Having AA is hard but it's taught me a lot about myself and about what really matters. It makes us stronger and wiser

Try and see if the antibiotics could be the issue. I took my first dose of antibiotics (tetracycline, approx. 2 months) from April '15 - May '15, and my hair started thinning in the back at the bottom (thinning/bald patches, kind of both), then I took my second dosage starting from February '16 - April '16 and I can tell you now, the first few days of taking the antibiotics the second round I developed bald spots EVERYWHERE and got reeeeeaaally bad acne. Now I am doing a candida/parasite cleanse as well as taking potent probiotics as the antibiotics severely disrupt the gut flora, in turn messing up your immune system (ding ding, alopecia = autoIMMUNE disease). My hair is actually starting to grow back everywhere but white, it will eventually turn stronger and more pigmented (my natural hair colour is light brown). Considering though that I've been semi-bald now for around 7 months, it will take longer for regrowth as the follicles have rested longer, I'm assuming. I'm feeling more mental clarity which I noticed got veeeery bad after the antibiotics. Try and see if this works for you. I think I'm on the right track. Wanted to write this as you mentioned you had taken antibiotics. I really hope I could provide a bit of help. :)

Hello, my name is Ana and I'm 22. I know exactly how you're feeling because 5 months ago I found a bald spot in my head and the dermatologist told me it was alopecia areata. Just like you I googled this condition and when I realized how impredictable it was I freaked out and got really depressive. In the first three months of alopecia I stressed and got really worried and the bald spot grew up a lot. Only two months ago, when I felt more relaxed and started to deal with the problem naturally, my hair started to grow again and now my patch is almost totally covered. Try not to stress and take care of your emotions. I'm sure you will be just fine very soon. Also, remenber that you are beautiful and hair loss won't change that. Be strong and positive!! :D

How’s your alopecia now and did you do anything?

Thank you for making this video. 💕

i have alopecia. and that too this is my 15th year with alopecia. Am just 23 now. So not many here would be that experienced I guess. Alopecia has enhanced my character to a totally different level. I have got more life experiences in different scenarios than 70 year oldies , I must say. Life has changed. I was not the "I" that was conceived by my mother. Though many at times I feel stuck in life, the different kind of emotions that I have went through is HUGE. I thank FATE to show me a different view of the world that 90% people are gonna MISS forever. Alopecia makes you strong, mature, tough, a helping hand in any crisis, a person with insight, a person each and everyone on this earth can rely on, a person one can keep your secrets with, a person who can listen to anyone patiently with no worry of time running out etc etc etc. Anyway for all alopecia sufferers - well wishes for your cure. Keep in mind that life has many dimensions not just the glamourous lifestyle we see in televisions or magazines, so just don't limit your opportunities by being depressed or sad. You should be rather happy to have a very unique life that others are gotta MISS in their rat race endeavours. THANK YOU

Stay positive!! You are BEAUTIFUL

Hi May you get better completely you look gorgeous xxxx

There has been a lot of stress in my life (including trauma), and I wanted to move to London to pursue acting and arts, and about week 1,5 week ago I started losing my hair rapidly and now I look completely different. Less attractive in aesthetical terms, and my self-esteem is falling down, and I'm becoming depressed, helpless and want to isolate myself. All because of hair...

Your video made me cry. My sister has alopecia totalis. She lost her hair when she was in second grade, grew it back and lost in again going into HS. Apperantly some eczema drug (another auto-immune disorder like alopecia) during trials has had it's test subjects regrow hair as well. Maybe it's worth looking into, I don't know. I feel for anybody going through it. Not many understand what its truly like (as well as myself since I watched my sister go through it and was helpless to help).

My heart breaks at her tears...girl dont cry you are very gorgeous even with that problem

Thanks for sharing your story! You are beautiful and so is your hair!!

Thank you so much for sharing! I'm 21 but I got my first bald spot in 7th grade, it was small and easy to cover but my mom kept asking me if I did it to myself or if one of my friends did it and I told her over and over again "NO!" It grew back so I forgot about it but now at 21 I am working 40 hrs a week at a children's center with infants and going to school full time as well. About two months ago I was getting my hair cut and my stylist asked me how I got my bald spot and I freaked out and said "What bald spot?" she showed me and I panicked because it was just like the one I had in middle school; a quarter round sized spot that was smooth and completely BALD. She told me her sister gets bald spots when she's stressed and it made sense to me because so much was happening in my life. Now that I'm researching ways to treat and manage my Alopecia Areata it's making me feel a little better, though I wish there was a complete cure.

Hope it grew back! I found my first yesterday, and its like she said.. googling just made it worse. I get happy hearing people just have one or two, and they are gone for a while/years

I was just diagnosed with alopecia areata this week. I've got five bald spots all over my head, thankfully for now that I can cover. My dermatologist only gave me injections in the one large spot on the back of my head and I go back next month. February 6th is a long way away. I've never been this depressed in my life. I feel like my identity is being taken from me, and it's a very powerless feeling. Mine also is caused by stress but I think I've ever been more stressed out!

Your sharing helps us as well with the hair conditions we have 😊

I just found out yesterday I have alopecia . Your video has really helped me out and gave me a lot of information.

Ah my heart goes out to you, I have the same condition and I'm just waiting for the day my hair stops. Just found a new patch today in a similar spot to you, one day we will look back and be proud of working through it

I first noticed I had alopecia when I was 16. I'm 23 now and I have 3 small bald spots now but I don't worry about them. what helped me is using "tween time" hair color stick(you can get it at Sally beauty). if I don't use that then you can tell I have spots but if I do use it then you can't tell. I hope your hair grows back quickly. Also my mom had alopica too and all her hair fell out when I was 3 and grew back pretty fast but now she never gets any spots anymore. best of luck.❤

dont cry :(. hope it gets better, please stay positive sweetheart

I’ve only just been diagnosed with Alopecia I still have to go to a blood test to see if it’s anything worse but I started loosing hair in my eyebrows a bit and only recently lost chunks of hair But it’s weird because it never came out in chunks I just was washing my hair one day and found bald spots. I only have three bald spots up to now and I have to wear a hair band to cover a patch on my hair line. Anyone with Alopecia isn’t alone❤️✨ Stay strong x

I noticed a bald spot around 6 years ago and that was how I found out I have hypothyroidism. I wasn't really worried about it at that time and thankfully my hair grew back pretty quickly after starting my treatment for hypothyroidism & getting some meds for the alopecia. Sadly just yesterday I found another spot. I don't know why but it made me really upset - I guess I didn't think I would get it again after managing my auto immune issue for so many years? I know i'm blabbing but that's what I want to say: thank you for making this video, it made me realise other people around my age suffer from this too!

@@Jjbincz It did! But I was using topical steroids (cream applied on the skin, not injections) prescribed by my doctor so it might have taken less time than normally. I'd say if you use your medication every day it might take around a month for the hair to start growing back. Stress can be a big trigger too, so it's important to keep a positive outlook, since it can help growing out your hair quicker :) Good luck!

I can understand this! I had a double lung transplant in February of this year and the medication I have to be on for the rest of my life causes bad hair loss. I'm very thankful for being able to breathe but I hate dealing with the bald spots in my already thin hair

I have had a lot of hair loss, in 14 and alopecia seems to enjoy the partline, I constantly change my part and it sucks

Our hair is kind of our coat of armor. I'm sorry you are going through this. So brave of you to talk about your story publicly! Have you tried taking prenatal vitamins? The vitamins for hair and nails never really helped me but the prenatal vitamins did wonders for me.

Hey your really brave thank you for sharing I'm going through the same thing. But thank you for sharing

Hey, I have recently been diagnosed with alopecia areata and I currently have two decent sized spots. I am trying to come to terms with it and hear stories of others who have dealt with this makes me feel so much better. I was wondering what your recovery has looked like since you made this video? I know some people deal with it once and it seems to go away, and since my diagnosis was so recent I have no idea what to expect.

You don't know how much I feel you. I started last year having small patches and now I'm 17 and I'm almost bald so I have to wear a wig.. My advice is to leave it and not to pay attention to your patches at all.. carry on living the life you lived before your hair loss and pay attention to your food.

i’m 14 and was diagnosed at the age of 12/13 and i used to have thick hair like you, my one was triggered by stress alot of family issues, and i lost 30-40% hair then i got the same cream as you and the injections in my head, i have since last august, and my hair has been growing but it is slow

ily!!

Thanks for giving Hope ! 🙏

I know your heartbreak. I have lost nearly all of my hair to Alopecia arena. I have also struggled with depression over the whole thing. Knowing it's not life threatening makes me feel bad at how devastated I get feeling. I loved my hair. I was a natural red head and I was very fond of it even though it changed from a almost orange red from my youth to a darker red as I reached my 50's. I have had to buy wigs, hats, scarfs. My head gets cold. I also am trying to find ways to de-stress. Going to counseling. I have regained the hair on my arms and have what appears to be stubble growth on parts of my scalp. I have no answers. Was on creams, I think the doctor got to the point that she no longer knew how to treat me - pretty much just sent me on my way. No solutions. This has been very hard to deal with. I wish I had as much hair as you have currently. I also hope you never know my pain. I have maybe 100 - 200 hairs left on my head, maybe not even that many. Have not really counted. What I have left could fit into the spot that you have lost on your head. Wishing you the best. Hope your condition will not worsen. Its very disheartening to deal with no matter what stage of hair loss one is currently dealing with.

@@amylee9 I have wisps of white hair. Would not come near being called a head of hair. I have decided to embrace the white for an upcoming cruise so I bought a white wig for a black & white party. It's kinda shiny and obvious a wig but I am determined to have a bit of fun with my situation. Can't beat it join it ... one wig and hat at a time.

I know how you feel. I also have this condition but don’t worry cuz I had a spot on my head and it is gone now. Sometimes there will be new ones but don’t let them stop you from living live tithe fullest

I'm really sorry. Honestly, your hair still looks beautiful and normal people won't notice that about you that much since you have the luck of having thick hair which looks full despite of your condition. And stress is a real thing. I was sleep deprived and stressed for months and I got a few white hairs and lost hair. *If you have any tips for hair care please reply to this comment.* I currently shampoo it with random shampoo, I don't use conditioner because it can speed the hair loss process but I use hair masks weekly.

i’m currently 14 and dealing with this condition due to moving across the country. I was told I needed a better outlet for my stress, and to cope better with my other mental illnesses. My mom has bought medicine and there is progress, but i’m so scared that it will not go away. I am not able to put my hair up in a ponytail like all of my friends, I have really dark hair and lighter skin, so it just does not work. I never realized how good I had it until now.

We are more than hair. My hearth is with you. I have the same condition. I can understand you. Now I am using Monat products. God bless you! I try to be positive every time! All will be ok. I trust. I send to you love and I hope you find something the stop the hair loss.

i have AA, im 16 and im a junior in high school. my mom first noticed my condition the spring of freshman year and didnt think much about it; she just believed it was stressed related and thought it would go away by itself. it had only been one spot for a while and it got bigger at one point. i began taking biotin vitamans and we thought it was working because it looked as if hair was growing back in december of 2016. when i got back from spring break of 2017 i noticed i had gotten 3 more bald spots and told my mom that it was bigger than she had originally thought and she took me to a doctor a year later and i got diagnosed. i know where youre coming from with you feeling embarassed about it because ive felt the same way for 4 months now. now a year and a half later im still hoping it will get better, i have lost about 3/4 of the amount of hair i had before all of this had begun to happen. it has begun to take a toll on me emotionally and psychologically. i try my best to stay home and out of the public as much as possible because i feel as if its the only thing people will notice, even with my hair up. i just wanted to say all of this to let you know youre not alone in all of this because i feel like youre in the place i was in last year and i wish you the best
