Taking my power back from the anxiety of hiding my hair falling out ✨🖤

[booh-bee]

My hair started falling out. After a long while of feeling dread about the wads of hair in my hands in the shower and trying to cover the bald spots with the hair that was still there, I decided I was done with it. I am in the process of getting tested for autoimmune disorders (that run in my family) but I until then I must learn to embrace my FULL SELF. And that includes those bits of empty scalp because that may just be my reality! Just wanted to share with people I know will uplift and care ✨🥰 Goodbye long hair, hello FREEDOM!!! 😁😁

Power move!

People will get out of your way, or they did in my case. Queues disappeared.

Good on you. I’m an alopecia victim too and I try to embrace it. Plus side? I never have to shave anything and I can change my hair color like a chameleon.

Hugs!

Now there’s a smile that really lights up a room paired with eyes that make stars jealous.

Who needs hair when you are as beautiful as you are? Have a long and wonderful life.

HENNA YOUR HEAD!
OMG the beautiful things you could with that skin. Are you familiar with Amanda Palmer? She draws on her eyebrows with most amazing filigree.
I wish I were brave enough for that.

While I hated it, shaving it all off (when I was 13), was such a liberating thing, I hope you feel that too.

Also, r/alopecia_areata has a bunch of us.

You honestly don’t need hair. I feel like this is your authentic self – and you are freaking rocking it!
