My hair loss is due to alopecia arerta and scarring.
While coming to terms with my hair loss I was also suffering from anxiety, depression along with PTSD.
I used to be a full-time hairdresser so I know the do’s and don’ts when it comes to how you should look after your hair.
However, that didn’t stop me.
The first thing I would decide to do when I felt sad was to change my hair.
I’d dye or bleach my hair, then change it again by cutting it short. I regretted these changes right away.
I then later tried wearing weaves, extensions or hair integration systems for a different change.
These either pulled more hair out or looked so fake.
My confidence has always been related to how I look.
So losing my hair is a major deal to me and really affected my confidence.
I then found a wig online that I liked the look of and took the plunge to purchase.
When the wig arrived I tried it on straight away.
Wow! It looks so natural and feels so comfortable.
This is the first time in a long time I feel like me again.
Love Rosemary
