Sometimes life just sucks...

So, I have been having a fairly emotional few weeks which culminated this morning in a trip to the doctor where I have been diagnosed with female pattern hair loss. It royally sucks to be on Rogaine at 32. Thanks mom and dad for another set of fabulous genes.

A few months ago, my mom commented that I must not have taken enough time when I put my hair up, because I had bald patch where the bobby pin was. I kind of just figured that I must have rushed that night. But, over the next few weeks, I noticed that I had to take longer to style my hair so I didn't have any open patches. Then just a couple of weeks ago, I started to notice that when I left my hair down, the way it naturally lays, you can tell there are thin areas. After a few emotional meltdowns, I finally called and got an appointment to see a dermatologist. Thankfully, she said that with most women the Rogaine really works. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
