What I learned shocked me:
...even if nothing else has worked before.
Dreading every shower because of the clumps of hair going down the drain
Crying after seeing yourself in mirrors or photos
Hiding under hats, scarves, and headbands everywhere you go
Feeling older and less attractive than your actual age
Avoiding social situations because you're embarrassed about your appearance
Panicking about going completely bald like the women in your family
Looking forward to washing your hair because you see new growth instead of loss
Feeling confident and radiant when you catch your reflection
Wearing your hair down with pride and receiving compliments again
Looking younger and more vibrant than you have in years
Enjoying social events and taking photos without worry
Feeling empowered and in control of your hair destiny
