Hair Loss Awareness for Women

I used to make fun of men walking around with really bad comb-over. I secretly laughed at those who have had very bad Toupé - seemed a squirrel nest in your head, men horseshoe, or the part that was so low I was almost jaw. My father had a horseshoe with a few strands that are desperately trying to hide the big real estate in the head, without success. For some reason it did not look strange or funny it was just dad. Unless, of course, when the wind get a hold of those precious few strands and be up, revealing to everyone what was (or lay) below, something like the infamous image of Marilyn Monroe, are not desperately trying to keep her dress as shockingly revealed her legs. Donald Trump never cease to amaze and confuse me. More because he has millions of dollars that could go to make it look good, but it does not! Some men embrace the bald and shaved off. I love these men! I can not find incredibly sexy bald men, I have never and Telly Savalas. Today, not secretly laugh or make fun of those who are balding. I apologize to all. Due to the age of 58, I came out of the closet to declare that I'm bald. The only difference with others is ... I'm a woman. I am a woman who is bald. Not so funny now. I dove into researching what I found to be, it destroys self-esteem terrible called androgenic alopecia. This is what I found:     There are over 40 million women in the U.S. are struggling with some form of hair loss.     Statistics show that within 80 years, nearly 57% of women experience some degree of female pattern baldness.     Approximately 50% of men aged 50 and 15% of women before menopause when they reach a certain degree of androgenic alopecia, according to an article in the body andhealth.com     According to the Canadian Dermatology Association, however, about 40% of women show signs of hair loss in 50 years.     One in three women will experience excessive hair loss during their life, a problem with no specific causes     Women generally do not have total hair loss male pattern baldness, but thinning of the crown (which creates the effect of a horseshoe) Some, like me, have a general thinning side all the way back front and rear.     It is a common disorder among men and women of Asia, with an incidence of up to 73% in the general population. Why is it a secret? Why women hide instead of living fully? We have come to accept men with hair loss. Probably not even look twice. However, to see a woman with hair loss is an anomaly. With these statistics, it should be women walk around with some form of alopecia. Where are they? Some wear wigs, some hats, fabrics. Some beautiful women chose to go 'Au Naturelle "or raze everything and went with the mentality of' rock bald woman." And some went "underground", taken by themselves in life. But most do not support - a shoulder to cry on, a sounding board to vent. Most women do not know where to go for information, tips, ideas, help ... and hope. This is because it's a secret! I'm on a personal mission to educate women with alopecia, male pattern baldness and specifically to the world. If being 60 is the new 40, definitely do not want to see or feel "old" because of my hair loss. You can be part of my life, but certainly not destroyed. I want to look, feel and act in the "new way and 40 '.' M energetic and full of life and I started to define who I am and who I want to be. Do not let a little thing like "situation" my hair in the way. NEVER.     Hair is not the only part of his appearance, for that matter - is only part of your body.     Hair does not define who you are - that comes from within     Hair does not make decisions about how you live your life. You do. Solutions are found when people gather. You are not alone. So please, go together. We will show and share!
