Recipient Profile |
My name is Shelby. I’m eighteen years old and was diagnosed with Alopecia Areata at the age of seven. With Alopecia Areata I loose my hair. When I was younger I wore a lot of hats to cover my head. Right before my freshman year of high school my family bought me a wig. I was bulled for it, but the wig made me feel better because I had hair again. My condition has worsened and I have lost most of the hair throughout my body. I have gone through several different treatments like topical creams, shots in my head, steroid pills, and applying Squaric Acid.
When I was twelve years old my younger cousin grew her hair out and gave it to me, so I can have a wig made out of it. Unfortunately, I found out it takes a lot more hair to make a wig. My cousin is giving me another amazing gift by cutting her hair again. I’m creating this foundation for myself because my insurance doesn't cover my Squaric Acid medication or my wigs. I’m currently in college and I know the cost of everything is a lot for my family. So every dollar and every hair that is donated makes a difference. I’m truly blessed that I only have Alopecia Areata and because of having Alopecia it has made me the person I am today.
