Just so people don’t get the idea that I’m totally against hair replacement, I’m happy to highlight a story like this one from the Worcester Telegram. It tells the story of Blerim Grajcevci, who as a five year-old in Kosovo sufffered severe burns that have left him unable to grow hair on much of his […]
I must be finding inspiration in the puppy dog eyes my wife was giving me this afternoon after she and our daughter wandered out of a local pet shop. Whatever the cause, this article on hair loss among dogs caught my eye this evening. It’s a local news Q & A type article written by […]
Turning our attention from where the sun don’t shine, lets shine a spotlight on Ege University in Izmir, Turkey. The Faculty of Medicine Dermatology Major Branch issued a statement yesterday that they are having success treating hair loss with photo-therapy.

Here’s a story that makes me think one day… perhaps… my own children will still get on with each other.

Now meet Ariel Williams. She’s seven. She’s Sharod’s little sister. And she’s got alopecia.
“She ignores it. She takes […]

You just never know what will turn up on eBay, do you?
From the article I glean that the 3 millennium old locks have been missing for a few decades. Seems a rather creepy thing to steal if you ask me. Nevertheless, the temptation proved too strong. Receiving the hair from his father one Jean-Michel Diebolt, […]
Hello magazine have a couple snaps of Ms. Porter out and about with her daughter, Honey. Here’s one. In addition, I picked up a few tidbits:
Gail and boyfriend James Lloyd seem to have recently been “on a break,” though their back together now.
