Helping your loved ones cope with your alopecia
Health & Fitness – Each alopecian should bear this mind: While you are coping with your condition, your friends and loved ones are coping with you as well as handling questions, stares and sometimes even insults.

Even bald women can live happily ever after
Women – My name is Dotty, I am age 43, and I lost my hair after a very traumatic experience. In retrospect, losing all my hair is nothing compared to finding out that the man I married molested my daughter. I put the monster in jail and tried to be strong.

When hair loss is not the problem
Health & Fitness – The main issue with alopecia is the way most people view hair loss, especially in women. It is not the condition itself, but taken-for-granted cultural assumptions that cause many alopecians intense emotional suffering and problems in their personal and professional lives.
