Michelle hair loss is something to be embraced. I'm ready for openness; I'm ready for people to be challenged; and I'm ready for bald women to feel empowered. I don't want to spend my life merely surviving as a bald woman. I'd much prefer to live.

TEDxSouthBankWomen speaker Michelle Law performed 'A Bald Woman's Guide to Survival' on Saturday December 1 at the independently organised event.  http://www.abc.net.au/unleashed/4404420.html

Natalie, I am 25 and I have Alopecia Universalis. I have been wearing human hair wigs for the past 2 years and although there are tough days, I am more confident inraising awareness of this condition and telling people my story.

James Miller Imagine you are 10 years old, and one morning you wake up to find you have a bald patch at the back of your head the size of a golf ball,this is what happened to me.

Cam O'Rourke , 12, I first got AA in early 2010. It was a massive shock because it started off as
just one tiny patch, and in about four weeks, it had all gone, apart from a couple of tiny patches. My mates all helped me out by shaving their heads to show support, which was awesome.

Kylie Baker tells her story on how she mihgt not have a single strand of hair, but felt every inch the beautiful bride. Congratulations Kylie and Matthew.

Sarah P I’ve had ups and downs, I’ve been self conscious and I’ve been brave. I don’t know where I will be this time next year, or what my head will look like. But it’s an adventure, and its all part of my story.

Eliza & Ben In 2009, at the age of 3, Ben first experienced Alopecia.Ben’s elder sister Eliza realised how fortunate she was. She decided to grow her hair long enough so she could donate it to make a wig for another girl to enjoy.

Danielle K Who you are is about the inside not about what you look like on the outside, love
yourself no matter what for everything you are, inside and out.
