My hair doesn't define me, my strength and resilience do!

In The 
Beginning

TRUST THE PROCESS

Trusting the process as a lupus warrior means accepting that hair loss is a possibility, but it doesn't define you. Hair is just that - hair. And it can grow back. Focus on taking care of yourself and your body and the rest will fall into place. Remember, you are strong and beautiful no matter what.

My Story With Lupus & How I Am Not My Hair!

Losing my hair was a challenging experience that left me feeling frustrated and helpless. I remember the feeling of dread as I watched my hair fall out in chunks. It was a difficult time, but I refused to let it defeat me. I knew that I had to take action, so I sought the help of dermatologist Dr. Dietrich.

Working with Dr. Dietrich was a turning point in my hair loss journey. She provided me with the guidance and support I needed to regrow my hair. It wasn't an easy process, but I was determined to see it through. And now, my hair is back and flourishing.

Although I still like wearing wigs, I know that hair loss is not the end. It's just hair, and it can come back. I am confident that I can face any future challenges with the same determination and resilience that helped me overcome this one.

My hair loss journey taught me a lot about myself and what I am capable of. It showed me that even in the face of adversity, I can find the strength to keep going. I am grateful for the support of Dr. Dietrich and for the opportunity to grow and learn from this experience.

Now, I am excited to move forward with confidence and a renewed sense of self. I know that whatever challenges come my way, I am capable of overcoming them. And I am grateful for the reminder that sometimes, the things we think define us are just a small part of who we are.

Hair loss due to lupus is challenging, but there are solutions available.
