I lost my hair from Cancer treatment when I was just 10 years old - which, I guess, wasn't the worst side effect given everything. But it definitely lead to years of kids being nasty and as an adult, being judged for my bald head.

I never wanted a wig that looked so obviously like a wig, so when I found a synthetic lace front when I was 21years old, it gave me a new lease on life. I was no longer the "cancer-girl", I felt more confident in my own skin and started getting positive attention from guys.

But it was also quite limiting, between not being able to swim, windy days, hot days, dry skin days, rainy days, the continuous cost of buying new wigs and trying to get people to not touch my hair - AHHH!

It's a lot of work and upkeep for something that many people take for granted.

I just learned to love myself more, bald head, no wig and poking faces at idiots who choose to judge me for it.
