Hello,
I'm Mika from France. I'm 29 and I've been struggling with alopecia. I don't really remember when it all started, but it was the trigger to my depression.
I always had thick wavy hair. Not runway hair to say, but nice nonetheless. It's been two years, and now, my self esteem is really low, I don't have the confidence to go out with my hair down anymore, and it's worst when the sun is out. And to make things worse, my brother and father both have huge thick and long curly hair, and I'm embarassed to say, I'm a bit jealous of them. After seeking helo for a while, I just gave up, for when you reach out, even doctors and professionals just told le, one by one, "get over yourself, it's just hair". Yes, MY hair. A part of me that is gone, and keep falling down the drain after every shower, or long day in a ponytail... I would love to try a topper, but I guess, in France, it's really not a common practice, so it's still really expensive and you don't have diversity in term of colour, lenght and thickness.I have find you through June Penny, and she kind of gave me hope for my hair. But after trying hair fibers, masks, powder, supplements, oils and shampoos, I think I finally came to term that I won't get my hair back, but I won't go down without a fight. I really like to try a topper from your site, but I don't really have the kind of money to put in a mono.
Anyway, thank you, everyone at Uniwigs for your work and helping people getting back their condidence, and even their lives together. And thank you to everyone who post on this forum, I don't feel alone anymore.
