Good Morning Britain Talks Alopecia...

This morning on 'Good Morning Britain', a lovely lady called Ellie was on the sofa at Good Morning Britain talking alopecia and how it almost ruined her wedding day. Ellie is gorgeous and you can see the interview here...

Once again, immediately the hairloss was linked to stress by the presenters, who asked whether stress was the trigger as a result of planning a wedding. Ellie was clear (thank goodness) that no, she wasn't stressed and that her mother-in-law had been great in helping to plan the wedding! She was clear she wasn't feeling stressed and that there was no evidence of it, but that she lost her hair nonetheless. You all know my feelings on the link between stress and alopecia, but in case you have missed it, this post and this one may put that comment in perspective.

What I liked about Ellie is that she has turned her own, negative experiences into a positive one for others; she has spoken out on National Television to raise awareness of the condition and she has also set up a business helping provide replacement hair for cancer and alopecia patients! Well done her!

Anyway, the interview is lovely and worth a watch and also includes others with hairloss...
