Hi. My name is Jakobína, I'm 26 years old. I found my first bald spot almost four years ago, then I found 3 more. Even though I have had regrowth in most of them they usually get bald again. At first it was connected to stress and a nervous break down and I was told that it would heal itself in about a year or so. A year past and I had had hair again and I had lost it again, and I had gotten more bald spots and they got bigger with time. I recently got diagnosed with alopecia areata. It is an auto immune disease that makes me lose my hair. Some people lose it slowly, others faster. It depends on the person. I have had problems to say the least with my immune system since i was 18 years old (2008). On top of that I have had eczema (atopic dermatitis) since i was 2 years old. I have a lot of allergies, food and environment. My medical bills have been through the roof the past 3 years and on top of that came alopecia areata. I am originally from Iceland but my boyfriend and I moved to Denmark very recently. We are just getting settled in and we are not going to be able to afford the bills and a high quality wig for me without your help. Recently the hair loss has gone worse, I get a bit sad every time I take a shower or brush my hair due to all the hair that falls out, and I'm so irritated in my scalp all day long with the eczema on top of that. It has gotten to a point where I am tired of hiding the spots and always thinking that the hair may come back, but it probably will not. I have almost accepted that this is just how it will be from now on but I still get very sad and down every time I see the hair in the drain or find a new spot. I am trying to find the strength to shave it all of to give myself peace but I know that I'm not strong enough to rock the bald head, yet. So if you could be so kind and spare any amount, no matter how little, to help me get a high quality human hair wig since i tried synthetic ones and cheaper ones to start with but my scalp said No. I have tried the human hair ones and they work. But we are going to need your help with this. Thank you so so much in advance!

Best regards

Jakobína
