Wearing my hair


I mentioned in an earlier post about me coming to the conclusion that I needed to cut my hair. So  I have been wearing my blade head for about two weeks now. Amazingly I find all the fears I had are gone. I was all worried about what if people say something negative? How will I be perceived at work? Will I lose my job because I have no hair? Yes I had all those crazy thoughts. Well I have gotten a lot of compliments. I have been pulled to the side and told "Wow you look amazing." What made you cut your hair? I have had plenty of opportunities to educate people about Alopecia. I had a couple of students ask why I cut my hair. So I am sure some people do not understand it. That is fine. All and All I have received a lot of support and encouragement and I know I am still as attractive as I was with hair. I feel free and I am super glad I made the decision to come from under the wigs and the hats.  I do want to do a professional photo shoot to show case my new look. I am looking into a photographer and I want to get this done around the summer.  I am super confident and really realize how beautiful I am. I wonder what took  me so long???????????
