PS, where did you get that hat? I want one!

@Debbie – Thank you!

@Eliza – I got my hat from “Theory” http://www.theory.com but I’m not sure if that have that exact one anymore.

@Jann – I will be se sure to check out your Youtube channel! 🙂

@Tina – I’m not sure the best type of wig for big curly hair because my hair was always super straight, I’ve always admired the curly hair girls though, my mom has curls and I always was so jealous. We always seem to want what we don’t have, ha.

@Ciella – Hugs to you as well

@Gls – I’m so glad hearing about my journey has been of comfort to you. It’s a hard road traveled for all of us and I know that from once having been in the darkest hole possible and emerging to discover life didn’t end with my hair loss is a message I definitely want other women to know and see. Even when we think it will never be okay… it certainly can be, I’m living proof of that. ((hugs))

@Mary – I’ll be sure to share about Natasha soon! She’s getting lots of wear time and love lately. Forward movement is key. Too many years missed for my hair loss, and I don’t wish for any woman to walk that path. While sometimes we cannot control the actual hair loss, we can control our thoughts and perspective about what is happening. We can change how we view it, treat it and adapt with it.

@Marsha – I’m very sorry to hear you are struggling right now. Some days are harder than others for sure, I’m sending much love your way and know you have a support network here for you!

@Frizzy – Indeed, we do all travel the same road for sure… same thoughts and habits, from counting hairs to questioning everything about how we landed here. “Why why why” I played that game too many times to count which just kept me in a vicious cycle of self defeat and unable to move forward. I had to ultimately abandon the “why me” and just say “Why not me? It’s here, deal with it.”

@khikhob – Thank you, best to you too!

@M – I’m so glad my posts and videos have helped. It is hard (harder for some than others, as anything usually is) to make peace with wearing hair. To adjust to that being the new normal and fully accept it, but I think only with acceptance (at least for me ) comes ultimate peace with all of it. It’s not perfect, nothing ever will be unless my hair all grew back, but it’s good enough for sure, and sometimes “good enough” has to be good enough 🙂

@B- Since you see him for your hair, he may want to inspect your scalp for sure, if it’s going to be a process of de-wigging, then I’d opt for hat, for sure, it’s way easier to quickly yank a hat off and slide it back on. Depending on how nice and understanding your doc is, he may renew your script with having to see your hair, hard to say right? I’d assume he’s gonna wanna check it out, so hat it up !

@Emma – XOXO

@S – I’m a super private person, think private and then multiple that by a million. Prior to wearing wigs I never really posted photos of myself and have only done so after wigs changed my life because I felt so many women could benefit from seeing another woman wearing hair and living life and the in and outs and daily dealings of doing so, so I pushed beyond my comfort level. In doing that I still wanted some anonymity, I am private after all… so that’s what the sunglasses are about. As far as the hat, I’m not comfortable making videos or photos without my wig or hat, I’m not comfortable sharing pictures of my real hair, so I don’t. I just do the best I can with my comfort level.

XOXO
