Do you or someone you know have Alopecia? If so, please share your experiences

Hello
yes i have alopecia areata i was first diagnosed when i was 16 and i will say I WAS NOT STRESSED its not from stress there is an unknown trigger that makes our hair fall out n then grow back n then fall out again! i have never died my hair never had any treatments nothing!!! i lost nearly all my hair and had to wear wigs for over 2 years n then my hair grew back and its been really good... until tonight im now 22 and ive just found 2 new patches starting back up again!
i have tried everything from diet, to having over 18 cortisone injections injected into my scalp which hurt like hell, applying topical creams, consuming special protein powders, trying every vitamin possible, taking relaxants for my so called "stress" that wasnt there.... ive done it all so anyone who is so simple minded as to say its stress friggen come say that to my face and any little girl who has doent even no what stress is!!!!

I am a dark African American woman who finballly had to come to terms with having alopecia. I had worn a small bush/fro from my 20's until about 5 years ago. I noticed my hair thinning on the crown. Not having used chemisals for decades, I did not inow the cause. I had thought the cause of my mother's sickness and ultimate death caused stress. After going to my dermo. and using creams, having injections and etc. for months, nothing helped. He finally told me about the alopecia. I have not been able to stop it, even, with diet changes. I resuolted to wearing a wig. The rest of my hair has thinned and I always had had thick, thick, althought short hair all of my life. I have know been told that my hair will eventually be all gone and I will have a head as smooth as my husband's. I have cried and cried thinbking that I will have to be a wig olady for the rest of y l ife. The dermo says there is thoning that can be done.

Well....I personally now all to well..In most cases hairloss is related to diet stress medical issues and imbalances in the ph.... with every single client i met with we start with diet nutrition and ph testing....Autoimmune disorders are the bodys way of attacking itself to get our attention that we need to change our lifestyles and make healty choices thru food choices supplements and the proper hair and skin product lines....i myself was diagnoised with an auto immundisorder which cause MAJOR hairloss in my 30ies..now 40 plus i hav designed a healthy revolutionary way to help clients suffering with hairloss issues by properly cleansing the scalp with essential oils nutrients and stabilizing the bodys ph.... remeber this disease means the body is at "DIS EASE" and is asking for help thru our hair skin and nails..
