Hair, When it's Gone and What it Means

This is a post for TheRedOnes - and anyone else whose hair is thinning or gone. Here are two articles from The Guardian this year - one by a man and one by a woman. I really empathised with both.

Still feeling happy (and yes, more confident, I should have said) - to have short hair that looks a bit thicker than it did before. Roll on the next appointment, when I plan to ask to have it 'a little bit shorter than last time'.

Happy reading.

Interesting articles and something I suffer too. As well as my hair being thin this year I’ve also been unable to dye it because of an on-going lupus rash which includes my scalp Which I’ve had since February. So I feel a mess and embarrassed in company. The woman’s article explains the psychological affect of thinning hair and I totally relate to that. Thanks for sharing. X
