You’re not alone when it comes to hating hair loss and how self conscious it makes you feel, we’re with you all the way on that one! Many women with hair loss have tried or considered hair pieces, drugs, transplants, laser treatments or herbal remedies only to discover that the discomfort, side effects, expense, pain, and negligible results just weren’t worth it.

As the year winds down, it’s natural for us to take a minute and review the year in our minds. We think about our accomplishments at work. We think about all the projects we planned to complete and never even touched. We think about all the challenges our family and friends dealt with this year. Well, while you’re busy analyzing the year, take a minute to think about your hair.
If you listen to holiday music, then you’ve probably figured out that two front teeth, a hippopotamus, and even Santa Claus himself are way up there on the list of things people want for Christmas. Great gift ideas for sure. But for those of us with thinning hair, we may have something a little closer to home sitting at the top of our list this year. I have to admit,
Very few people will disagree when I say that Disney movies are amazing. The creativity of the Disney team is incredible. And when their last major movie, Tangled, came out, I wasn’t disappointed.

Just under a month ago, Canada celebrated their Thanksgiving Day. In less than a month, the United States will celebrate their Thanksgiving holiday.

Tabatha Coffey, a famous hair stylist, was the guest speaker. And not only
Admittedly, it has got to be one of the most bizarre holidays on the planet. It’s a day to dress up as…well pretty much anything, and for children to bum candy, soda, or other treats off decent, hardworking people. Even so, Halloween can be a lot of fun. Dressing up as something other than yourself does have its benefits. You’re not a kid anymore, but you probably attend a few
A good friend of mine recently overcame a long spell of depression. She had lost her job, lost a family member to cancer, had her closest friend move away, was suffering from thinning hair, had gained a few pounds, and found herself desperately wanting a new adventure in life. (Who hasn’t been there before, right?) So what finally got her out of her slump? “I decided my new adventure wasn’t
Women worry about their hair. All women worry about their hair. Whether they are suffering from thinning hair or not. I just read an article about how women’s self-esteem is affected by their hair. (Like we didn’t know that already, right?) But I want to give you a few more details from this article: -44% of women say they are negatively affected by a bad hair day -About half of
Just the other day, a friend of mine (who is confined to a wheelchair) was talking to his friends. They were talking about the average height of athletes.
