Lupus and Hair Loss

I have Lupus and lost my hair due to complications from this disorder.  There are many people who suffer from this disease.  This article is for people suffering from Lupus, Alopecia, cancer and other disorders where hair is lost.  I sell hair prosthesis to help women regain their self esteem and beauty.  I hope you find the information on Lupus informative.


Important Information about Lupus

Listening to your body is even more important when you’re living with lupus. This is because different things can cause lupus symptoms to get worse or “flare,” such as spending too much time in the sun, or being overtired or stressed.

It is important to notice when symptoms change, or come and go. Try to talk as openly as you can with members of your healthcare team about your symptoms and how they are affecting you. Keeping the lines of communication open lets everyone know when it’s time to explore different options and make adjustments that may help in managing your symptoms.
Some common lupus symptoms

One of the things that makes lupus difficult to diagnose and manage is that its symptoms can vary from person to person. Even your own symptoms may change over time, depending on which body systems the lupus is targeting. Not everyone living with lupus will have every lupus symptom, but following are some of the most common.

    Extreme fatigue that doesn’t go away with rest
    Joint pain, stiffness, and swelling
    Fever over 100°F
    Muscle pain
    Hair loss
    Skin sores and rashes (may occur in a butterfly pattern across the cheeks and nose)
    Nose or mouth sores (usually painless)
    Fingers and toes that turn white, blue, and red when it’s cold or you feel stressed (this is also called Raynaud Syndrome)
    Extreme sensitivity to the sun
    Anxiety
    Depression
    Memory loss

Complications

Lupus and the inflammation it causes can affect the functioning of many of the body’s internal organs. Some of those complications can involve a person’s:

    Kidneys. Kidney problems are common in lupus. Signs of kidney problems include generalized itching, nausea, vomiting, leg swelling, and weight gain.
    Neurological function. This can include headaches, dizziness, behavior changes, confusion, memory problems, and seizures.
    Blood. Lupus can cause anemia and increased risk of bleeding or blood clotting.
    Lungs. If the lining of the chest cavity becomes inflamed, it can make breathing painful, but most lung complications from lupus (such as a noninfectious form of pneumonia) can be monitored through pulmonary tests.
    Heart. Lupus can cause inflammation of the heart muscle, heart membrane, and arteries, leading to an increased risk of heart disease and stroke. However, the risk can be reduced by controlling high blood pressure and cholesterol, exercising regularly, and not smoking. Making these healthy lifestyle changes also can benefit a person’s overall lupus management.

How to apply Lace Frontal

The lace frontal piece attaches to the extended lace on a wig. It includes a front hairline with hair and extended lace. The lace frontal is replaceable so you can change it when it gives way from wear and tear or too much tape or glue. The lace frontal wig cap has transparent lace around the perimeter of the extended piece and blends with your skin, creating a natural hairline.

Instructions
Things You'll Need
                                                                                   
    Lace frontal
    Scissors
    Razor
    Bonding glue or tape

        1.  Brush your hair back smoothly,or braid it going back.  Apply a partial wig or other type of hairpiece or tracks for the back portion of your hair.
        2. Clean your forehead perimeter with alcohol and remove the excess oil from your skin. The adhesive holds better when you apply it to less oily skin.
        3. Put the lace frontal on the front of your head and decide how to place it. Position the frontal so it will look like your natural hairline.
        4.  Shave excess hair around perimeter  of your hairline and shave the hair along your sideburn area.  Shaving your hairline prevents the adhesive from sticking to your natural hair, which could cause permanent hair loss along your hairline.
      5.  Cut off the excess lace from the frontal. Start near the left ear and cut as close to the frontal hairline as possible without cutting the hair on the wig. Cut the lace to the center of your head. Then start near the right ear and cut the lace until you reach the center from that side as well.
        6. Fold the frontal back and apply the bonding glue or tape to your forehead along the perimeter of your hairline. Unfold the frontal and stick it to the adhesive along the edge. Press it down on your forehead firmly.
        7. Tie a band or scarf around your hair. Allow 15 to 20 minutes for the adhesive to bond, then style as desired.
