Look Mom, no hat!
Okay, this isn’t a deep, thoughtful blog entry, this is a blathering women’s vanity post… but I can’t help it. I am so happy, I was finally able to sit for photographs in a studio this week WITHOUT my trademark hat. I love making cocktail hats, and I love wearing them out, but the main reason I wore them was to cover Lupus allopecia. My hair has finally grown back now, and as much as I love them, it was really nice to be able to sit in front of the camera again sans hat 
How many times do we lose our hair, over and over again? Well, I’ve lost little bits here and there, but never to the extent that I had last winter. I was starting to look like Ben Franklin!!! I was buying wigs and hair pieces which looked horrible! I’m so glad that the flare ended and it all grew back. How many times has this happened to you? Like it’s not bad enough being sick, but having to lose our hair is like pouring salt into an open wound, you know?
