Androgenic Alopecia Support Group

Androgenic alopecia (also known as androgenetic alopecia or alopecia androgenetica) is a common form of hair loss in both men and women. The pattern of hair loss in women differs from male-pattern baldness. In women, the hair becomes thinner all over the head, and the hairline does not recede. Androgenetic alopecia in women rarely leads to total baldness.

need wig / hairpiece advise

Still looking for a solution to my thinning hair. I have tried on wigs but most have way too much hair and are very hot - like wearing a winter hat all day. The ladies in MSN's wig support group really seem to love a type of hairpiece called a Topper. From what I have researched they are very expensive and hard to find. Any suggestions for me? I have fine, straight, dark blond hair that just touches my shoulder - it is parted down the middle and very thin the whole length of the top of my head - I do have a wig at home, too uncomfortable to wear and wonder if it could be thinned, cut and converted to a topper. Any advice appreciated! Thanks

daniellac1, I was the same. I found a London based clinic (after going to thousands), recommended by a fellow forum-er, where customers are treated in private rooms, and have lots of talking time with staff to make sure that they are taken care of and feel most comfortable.
Does this sound like something you would be interested in?

Topper / partial hair systems or lace peices are perfect for thinning hair - keep as much of your own hair as possible and have a peice to cover the top and fall down to add volume to the rest.
You could cut down your wig if it is a lace one and either sew on combs or use medical grade tapes to stick it place - good hair cut while it is on your head will realy help blend it all together x

Try on a variety of wig types to find the one that is right for you. They can be expensive and there are so many to choose from that is can be confusing and overwhelming. Here are some great sources for general synthetic wigs, human hair wigs, lace front wigs, and half wigs.

A hair transplant will be a permanent solution for you, But if you don't want to spend money then you can try other temporary solutions to hair thinning, for example hair fibers.

    Is anyone here allergic to Sulfa that is currently taking Diamox? I have been diagnosed with IH now for almost 2 years. I am allergic to Sulfa drugs meaning that my throat will swell up so my Neurologist put me on Topamax. I was suffering from major loud whoosing noises and the topamax helped that but everyday I still hear those mainly between 6 - 12 pm. I am at my wits end and have not went...
