A Beautiful
New World for Hair Loss Sufferers

Southfield, MI
(BlackNews.com) - Millions of people around the world, especially
women, have had their lives turned upside down by severe and unexpected
hair loss.
This drastic change in
their physical appearance was caused by different types of a noncontagious
disease generally known as alopecia and which presently can be treated
but not cured.
Many of them have kept
their condition a secret for fear of being ridiculed and rejected.
So, imagine the joy of
meeting scores of people from all over the world who are not only
coping with such hair loss, but also living life to the fullest
regardless of it.
These are the kind of
people you will find on AlopeciaWorld.com, a unique and free social
networking site for everyone who is living with baldness, thinning
or patchy loss of hair, or any other type of hair loss.
They have formed one
of the best alopecia support groups online, and you can always count
on one of its members to tell why.
"I have been touched
and inspired by so many people already," wrote Annette Moore
who has central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, the type of scarring
alopecia found in more than 30 million African American women. "How
wonderful it is to know that no one has to go through living with
alopecia alone."
The site truly is a special
place where alopecians and people who love and care for them meet
day and night to encourage one another and share information about
the best resources for bald and alopecic men, women, and children.
Each member of Alopecia
World gets a customizable profile with privacy options and may post
blogs, photos, videos, events and announcements, participate in
informative and inspiring discussions, or create different groups
of their own.
"They are coming
from sites like MySpace to create their own space in Alopecia World
because ours is a beloved community formed around their specific
needs as hair loss 'sufferers,'" said co-founder Cheryl Carvery,
a Black Canadian who has been living with alopecia areata for 17
years.
